4 0

Answer:

-5n - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The goal is to simplify this expression.

1. Distribute

-2.5 * 1 = -2.5

-2.5 * 2n = -5n

Now, we have

-2.5 - 5n - 1.5

2. Combine like terms

-2.5 + (-1.5) = -4 (+ * - = - The - cancels out the +)

3. Put it together

-5n - 4

A population of bacteria is introduced into a culture. the number of bacteria P can be modeled by P=500(1+4t/(50+t^2 )) where t

Dennis_Churaev [7]

P(t)=500(1+4t/(50+t^2 ))

P'(t) = 500 [(50+t^2).4 - 4t.2t]/(50+t^2)^2

by the quotient rule

500 (-4t^2 + 200)/(t^2 + 50)^2

Hence

P'(2) = 500 . (-16 + 200)/54^2 ~= 31.6
