Answer:

x = 11/10

Step-by-step explanation:

we have from statement:

-1=1 - 4(-5+4x) – 4x

we apply distributive property:

-1 = 1 -4*(-5) -4*(4x) -4x

so we have:

-1= 1+20 -16x -4x

-1 = 21 -20x

-22=-20x

so we have:

x=22/20

x=11/10

we can substitute the x value found:

-1 = 1 - 4(-5+4*(11/10)) – 4*(11/10)

-1 = 1+20 -17.6 -4.4

-1 =21 -22

so we have:

-1 = -1

A bacteria culture begins with 15 bacteria which double in amount at the end of every hour. How many bacteria are grown during t
elixir [45]
We use P = i•e^rt for exponential population growth, where P = end population, i = initial population, r = rate, and t = time
P = 2•i = 2•15 = 30, so 30 = 15 [e^(r•1)],
or 30/15 = 2 = e^(r)
ln 2 = ln (e^r)
.693 = r•(ln e), ln e = 1, so r = .693
Now that we have our doubling rate of .693, we can use that r and our t as the 12th hour is t=11, because there are 11 more hours at the end of that first hour
So our initial population is again 15, and P = i•e^rt
P = 15•e^(.693×11) = 15•e^(7.624)
P = 15•2046.94 = 30,704

K/75 + 57.1 = 40.8<br> k = ?
Ronch [10]
K/75 + 57.1 = 40.8

k/75 = 40.8 - 57.1

k/75 = -16.3

k = -16.3 • 75

k = -1222.5 or -1222 1/2

Hope it helps!
