X2 - 2x + 9x - 18
X2 + 7x - 18
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
Tank A capacity = 550 gallons 66% x 550 gallons = 363 gallons in Tank A
How about the water in tank B?
ratio of 11: 15 11/15 = 550/x 550 * 15/11 = cap B = 750 gal 53% 0f 750 = .53 x 750 = 397.5 gal in tank B
The population of the bacteria after 8 hours is 1639 bacteria.
An exponential function is given by:
y = abˣ
where y, x are variables, a is the initial value of y and b is the multiplier.
Let y represent the population of bacteria after x hours.
Given that he starts his experiment with 500 bacteria, hence
a = 500
The bacteria grow at a rate of 16% per hour, hence:
b = 100% + 16% = 1.16
The exponential equation becomes:
y = 500(1.16)ˣ
After 8 hours:
y = 500(1.16)⁸ = 1639
The population of the bacteria after 8 hours is 1639 bacteria.
