First we need to find k ( rate of growth)
The formula is
A=p e^kt
A future bacteria 4800
P current bacteria 4000
E constant
K rate of growth?
T time 5 hours
Plug in the formula
4800=4000 e^5k
Solve for k
4800/4000=e^5k
Take the log for both sides
Log (4800/4000)=5k×log (e)
5k=log (4800/4000)÷log (e)
K=(log(4,800÷4,000)÷log(e))÷5
k=0.03646

Now use the formula again to find how bacteria will be present after 15 Hours
A=p e^kt
A ?
P 4000
K 0.03646
E constant
T 15 hours
Plug in the formula
A=4,000×e^(0.03646×15)
A=6,911.55 round your answer to get 6912 bacteria will be present after 15 Hours

Hope it helps!

Question Help Suppose that the lifetimes of light bulbs are approximately normally​ distributed, with a mean of 5656 hours and a
koban [17]

Answer:

a)3.438% of the light bulbs will last more than 6262 hours.

b)11.31% of the light bulbs will last 5252 hours or less.

c) 23.655% of the light bulbs are going to last between 5858 and 6262 hours.

d) 0.12% of the light bulbs will last 4646 hours or less.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normally distributed problems can be solved by the z-score formula:

On a normaly distributed set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a value X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

After we find the value of Z, we look into the z-score table and find the equivalent p-value of this score. This is the probability that a score will be LOWER than the value of X.

In this problem, we have that:

The lifetimes of light bulbs are approximately normally​ distributed, with a mean of 5656 hours and a standard deviation of 333.3 hours.

So \mu = 5656, \sigma = 333.3

(a) What proportion of light bulbs will last more than 6262 ​hours?

The pvalue of the z-score of X = 6262 is the proportion of light bulbs that will last less than 6262. Subtracting 100% by this value, we find the proportion of light bulbs that will last more than 6262 hours.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{6262 - 5656}{333.3}

Z = 1.82

Z = 1.81 has a pvalue of .96562. This means that 96.562% of the light bulbs are going to last less than 6262 hours. So

P = 100% - 96.562% = 3.438% of the light bulbs will last more than 6262 hours.

​(b) What proportion of light bulbs will last 5252 hours or​ less?

This is the pvalue of the zscore of X = 5252

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{5252- 5656}{333.3}

Z = -1.21

Z = -1.21 has a pvalue of .1131. This means that 11.31% of the light bulbs will last 5252 hours or less.

(c) What proportion of light bulbs will last between 5858 and 6262 ​hours?

This is the pvalue of the zscore of X = 6262 subtracted by the pvalue of the zscore X = 5858

For X = 6262, we have that Z = 1.81 with a pvalue of .96562.

For X = 5858

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{5858- 5656}{333.3}

Z = 0.61

Z = 0.61 has a pvalue of .72907.

So, the proportion of light bulbs that will last between 5858 and 6262 hours is

P = .96562 - .72907 = .23655

23.655% of the light bulbs are going to last between 5858 and 6262 hours.

​(d) What is the probability that a randomly selected light bulb lasts less than 4646 ​hours?

This is the pvalue of the zscore of X = 4646

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{4646- 5656}{333.3}

Z = -3.03

Z = -3.03 has a pvalue of .0012. This means that 0.12% of the light bulbs will last 4646 hours or less.

10. Dan picks 18 baskets of apples
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

1 basket = 24 apples

24 × 18 = 432 apples

(use cross multiplication method)

1 apple = 15 cents

432 = x

\frac{1x}{1}  = 6.480

x = 6.480 cents

( 69 POINTS!!! ANSWER PLEASE!!! , WILL MARK AS BRAINLIEST IF U GIVE AN EXPLANTION AND NOT LIKE JUST THE ANSWER =.= )
Sergio [31]

Okay so process of elimination. The first option isn't correct because the sum of the interior angles for any triangle is always 180 degrees. x would be 25 degrees  for ABC because 90+65=155 and 180-155=25. Y would be 95 degrees for DEF because 65+20=85 and 180-85=95, so y does not equal 90 degrees. For B, No side lengths are given. C is also not the correct answer so the answer is D. I can link you to another brainly post that has the same question or a similar with an explanation on determining the answer if you'd like :)
