33+27=60. 9/60= .15 there's not much more to say.

A population of bacteria begins with 1500 bacteria and grows to 4500 in one hour.

dezoksy [38]

The function that represents the growth of this culture of bacteria as a function of time is; P = 1500e^(1.0986t)

<h3>How to calculate Exponential Growth?</h3>

The formula for exponential growth is;

P = P₀e^(rt)

where;

P = current population at time t

P₀ = starting population

r = rate of exponential growth/decay

t = time after start

Thus, from our question we have;

4500 = 1500 * e^(r * 1)

4500/1500 = e^r

e^r = 3

In 3 = r

r = 1.0986

Thus, the function that represents the growth of this culture of bacteria as a function of time is;

P = 1500e^(1.0986t)

For the culture to double, then;

P/P₀ = 2. Thus;

e^(1.0986t) = 2

In 2 = 1.0986t

t = 0.6931/1.0986

t = 0.631 hours

50 dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

19 x 25= 475

1,425 - 475= 950

950 divided by 19 is 50.

Use the rules of exponents to simplify the expressions. Match the expression with its equivalent value.

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

1) $\frac{(-2)^{-5}}{(-2)^{-10}}=-32$

2) $2^{-1}.2^{-4} = \frac{1}{32}$

3) $(-\frac{1}{2} )^3.(-\frac{1}{2} )^2=-\frac{1}{32}$

4) $\frac{2}{2^{-4}} = 32$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) $\frac{(-2)^{-5}}{(-2)^{-10}}$

Solving using exponent rule: $a^{-m}=\frac{1}{a^m}$

$\frac{(-2)^{-5}}{(-2)^{-10}}\\=(-2)^{-5+10}\\=(-2)^{5}\\=-32$

So, $\frac{(-2)^{-5}}{(-2)^{-10}}=-32$

2) $2^{-1}.2^{-4}$

Using the exponent rule: $a^m.a^n=a^{m+n}$

We have:

$2^{-1}.2^{-4}\\=2^{-1-4}\\=2^{-5}$

We also know that: $a^{-m}=\frac{1}{a^m}$

Using this rule:

$2^{-5}\\=\frac{1}{2^5}\\=\frac{1}{32}$

So, $2^{-1}.2^{-4} = \frac{1}{32}$

3) $(-\frac{1}{2} )^3.(-\frac{1}{2} )^2$

Solving:

$(-\frac{1}{2} )^3.(-\frac{1}{2} )^2\\=(-\frac{1}{8} ).(\frac{1}{4} )\\=-\frac{1}{32}$

So, $(-\frac{1}{2} )^3.(-\frac{1}{2} )^2=-\frac{1}{32}$

4) $\frac{2}{2^{-4}}$

We know that: $a^{-m}=\frac{1}{a^m}$

$\frac{2}{2^{-4}}\\=2\times 2^4\\=2(16)\\=32$

So, $\frac{2}{2^{-4}} = 32$
