A scientist has discovered a new strain of bacteria. The bacteria culture initially contained 1000 bacteria and the bacteria are

doubling every hour. Write an exponential growth to describe the growth of the bacteria.
Mathematics
1 answer:
Anna007 [38]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Bacteria Culture = B

Hour = H

<u>B=1000*2^H</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Every hour, the bacteria doubles. This means that the amount is multiplied by 2 every hour. If it was 5 hours in, the bacteria would be at 32000. You can use the equation B=1000*2^5 to get that answer.

In 2013, the moose population in a park was measured to be 5,100. By 2018, the population was measured again to be 5,200. If the
natka813 [3]

Answer:

P(t) = 5100e^{0.0039t}

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential model for the population in t years after 2013 is given by:

P(t) = P(0)e^{rt}

In which P(0) is the population in 2013 and r is the growth rate.

In 2013, the moose population in a park was measured to be 5,100

This means that P(0) = 5100

So

P(t) = 5100e^{rt}

By 2018, the population was measured again to be 5,200.

2018 is 2018-2013 = 5 years after 2013.

So this means that P(5) = 5200.

We use this to find r.

P(t) = 5100e^{rt}

5200 = 5100e^{5r}

e^{5r} = \frac{52}{51}

\ln{e^{5r}} = \ln{\frac{52}{51}}

5r = \ln{\frac{52}{51}}

r = \frac{\ln{\frac{52}{51}}}{5}

r = 0.0039

So the equation for the moose population is:

P(t) = 5100e^{0.0039t}

The sides of a triangle are 1, x, and x2. what are possible values of x?
Whitepunk [10]
The sides of the triangle are given as 1, x, and x².

The principle of triangle inequality requires that the sum of the lengths of any two sides should be equal to, or greater than the third side.

Consider 3 cases
Case (a):  x < 1,
      Then in decreasing size, the lengths are 1, x, and x².
      We require that x² + x ≥ 1
      Solve x² + x - 1 = 
      x = 0.5[-1 +/- √(1+4)] = 0.618 or -1.618.
      Reject the negative length.
     Therefore, the lengths are 0.382, 0.618 and 1.

Case (b): x = 1
   This creates an equilateral triangle with equal sides
    The sides are 1, 1 and 1.

Case (c): x>1
  In increasing order, the lengths are 1, x, and x².
  We require that x + 1 ≥ x²
  Solve x² - x - 1 = 0
  x = 0.5[1 +/- √(1+4)] = 1.6118 or -0.618
  Reject the negative answr.
 The lengths are 1, 1.618 and 2.618.

Answer:
The possible lengths of the sides are
(a) 0.382, 0.618 and 1
(b) 1, 1 and 1.
(c) 2.618, 1.618 and 1.

Let K and T be the current ages of two siblings, Katie and Thomas. Katie is currently twice the age of Thomas. In 6 years, Katie
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Katie is 6 years old and Thomas is 3 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that we should let K and T be the current ages of two siblings, Katie and Thomas.

If Katie is currently twice the age of Thomas then,

K = 2T

and in  6 years, Katie will be 4 times Thomas's current age then

K + 6 = 4T

Solving both equations simultaneously by substituting the value of K given in the first equation into the second

2T + 6 = 4T

Collect like terms

6 = 4T - 2T

6 = 2T

Divide both sides by 2

T = 3

Recall that K = 2T

K = 2 * 3

= 6

Hence Katie is 6 years old while Thomas is 3 years old
