Answer:

16^{\frac{1}{2} = 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given  : 16^{\frac{1}{2}.

To find : Write without negative exponents.

Solution : We have given  16^{\frac{1}{2}.

By radical rule : (x^{a})^{\frac{1}{a}\ =\  x^{\frac{a}{a}}.

16^{\frac{1}{2} .

(4^{2})^{\frac{1}{2}\ =\  4^{\frac{2}{2}}.

(4^{2})^{\frac{1}{2}\ =\  4.

Therefore,  16^{\frac{1}{2} = 4.

Find the equation,in standard form, of the line passing through the point (2,-3) and (4,2)
VLD [36.1K]

The standard form:

Ax+By=C

The point-slope form:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

m - slope

(x₁, y₁) - point

The formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We have the points (2, -3) and (4, 2). Substitute:

m=\dfrac{2-(-3)}{4-2}=\dfrac{5}{2}

y-(-3)=\dfrac{5}{2}(x-2)

y+3=\dfrac{5}{2}(x-2)       <em>use distributive property</em>

y+3=\dfrac{5}{2}x-5            <em>multiply both sides by 2</em>

2y+6=5x-10                     <em>subtract 6 from both sides</em>

2y=5x-16         <em>subtract 5x from both sides</em>

-5x+2y=-16          <em>change the signs</em>

\boxed{5x-2y=16}

Round final answers to 3 decimal places.

There are 651.335 million cells in the petri dish after 11 hours and the cells will reach 1 billion cells after 14.068 hours

<h3>How to determine the number of cells after 11 hours?</h3>

The given parameters are:

At t = 0, Bacteria = 140 million

At t = 6, Bacteria = 320 million

This can be represented as:

f(0) = 140

f(6) = 320

An exponential function is represented as:

f(t) = f(0) * r^t

When t = 6, we have:

320 = 140 * r^6

Divide both sides by 140

r^6 = 2.28571428571

Take the 6th root of both sides

r = 1.15

So, we have:

f(t) = f(0) * 1.15^t

Substitute f(0) = 140

f(t) = 140 * 1.15^t

After 11 hours, we have:

f(11) = 140 * 1.15^11

Evaluate

f(11) = 651.33

Hence, there are 651.335 million cells in the petri dish after 11 hours

Time to reach 1 billion cells

This means that

f(t) = 1 billion i.e. 1000 million

So, we have:

1000 = 140 * 1.15^t

Divide by 140

1.15^t = 7.14285714286

Take the logarithm of both sides

t * log(1.15) = log(7.14285714286)

Divide both sides by log(1.15)

t = 14.068

Hence, the cells will reach 1 billion cells after 14.068 hours

A cab company charges a flat amount of $5 plus $1.10 per mile traveled. If at the end of a cab ride a customer owes the driver $
Luda [366]

I believe that the number of miles traveled would be 8. This is because you would subtract $5.00 from the $13.80 and then divided by $1.10.
