Answer: y = 54(1.06)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

It is estimated that the population of bacteria will increase by 6% each hour. This is an exponential growth. The formula for determining exponential growth is expressed as

y = b(1 + r)^ t

Where

y represents the population after t years.

t represents the number of years.

b represents the initial population.

r represents rate of growth.

From the information given,

b = 54

r = 6% = 6/100 = 0.06

Therefore, the formula for the population of bacteria is

y = 54(1 + 0.06)^t

y = 54(1.06)^t

The graph below shows the function f(x)=x-3/x2-2x-3. Which statement is true?
BARSIC [14]
1. Domain.

We have x^2-2x-3 in the denominator, so:

x^2-2x-3\neq0\\\\(x^2-2x+1)-4\neq0\\\\(x-1)^2-4\neq0\\\\(x-1)^2-2^2\neq0\qquad\qquad[\text{use }a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)]\\\\(x-1-2)(x-1+2)\neq0\\\\
(x-3)(x+1)\neq0\\\\\boxed{x\neq3\qquad\wedge\qquad x\neq-1}

So there is a hole or an asymptote at x = 3 and x = -1 and we know, that answer B) is wrong.

2. Asymptotes:

f(x)=\dfrac{x-3}{x^2-2x-3}=\dfrac{x-3}{(x-3)(x+1)}=\boxed{\dfrac{1}{x+1}}

We have only one asymptote at x = -1 (and hole at x = 3), thus the correct answer is A)

Which is the better buy?<br> 13-pint jug of juice for $12.74<br> 3-gallon jug of juice for $30.48
Ainat [17]

Answer: second one

13 pint = 1.625 gallons, so 1.625 gallons =$12.74.

3 gallons = 24 pint. so 24 pints = 30.48

now if we divide 13 and 24.= 1.84615384615

3 divided by 1.625  =1.84615384615

This is equaled the same now we need to divide the money so 30.48 divided  by 12.74 = 2.39246467818 and now you got 2.39 so the answer is the second one

Write as a square of a binomial: 4.8xy+36y^2+0.16 i will give brainliest plz solve
Sonja [21]

Answer:

(0.4x + 6y)^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4.8xy+36y^2+0.16x^2

Required

Express as a binomial squared

4.8xy+36y^2+0.16x^2

Rewrite as:

0.16x^2+4.8xy+36y^2

Expand

0.16x^2 + 2.4xy + 2.4xy + 36y^2

Factorize:

0.4x(0.4x + 6y) + 6y(0.4x + 6y)

Factor out 0.4x + 6y

(0.4x + 6y)(0.4x + 6y)

Express as a square:

(0.4x + 6y)^2
