So the equation is f(x)=36*(.5)^8, since your principal worth is 36 and it depreciates by 1/2 each year, which is 14 cents.

Answer:

f(x) = 50000*2^x
3 days

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

Initial amount of bacteria = 50000
Growth rate = 2 times a day

<u>Required equation:</u>

f(x) = 50000*2^x

<u>Solve for x:</u>

400000 = 50000*2^x
2^x = 400000/50000
2^x = 8
2^x = 2^3
x = 3

After 3 days bacteria numbers will reach 400000

Answer:

40$,160$ & 60

Step-by-step explanation:

First,find the equation using y-y1/ y1-y2=x-x1=x1-x2

y-0/0-20=x-0/0-3

y=20x/3

Now put the values of x& y in the equation, for the 1st one,

y=20×6/3

=40

2nd one.y=20×24/3

=160

3rd one,

400=20x/3

X=400×3/20

=60
