Answer: In 10 hours, 4000 bacteria will be present.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 2000 bacteria grew to 2400 in 2 hours,

growth/ increase rate = 2400 - 2000

= 400 bacteria increase in 2 hours

Per hour is therefore 400/2 = 200 bacteria increase per hour

If the bacteria increases by 200 per hour

If 200 = 1 hour

X = 10 hours

We cross multiply:

X = 200 x 10

X = 2000

Therefore, a culture with 2000 bacteria at the same growth rate will have increased by additional 2000 in 10 hours

So, after 10 hours, number of bacteria will be 2000 + 2000 = 4000 bacteria

Answer:

k = - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a function f(x), then a horizontal translation parallel to the x- axis is denoted by

f(x + k)

If k > 0 then shift of k units left

If k < 0 then shift of k units right

Here the shift is 6 units to the left, from 4 to - 2, hence

k =  6

A. 19. You have to set them up equal to each other. So, 6x-2=4x+36. You then subtract the 4x from the 6x, and add 2 to 36. Which leaves you with 2x=38. Divide and you get 19! Hope this helps

Determine the next step for solving the quadratic equation by completing the square.
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

-7/2 = -2(x-1/2)^2

Step-by-step explanation:

0 = –2x^2 + 2x + 3

Subtract 3 from each side

-3 = –2x^2 + 2x

Factor out the -2

-3 =- 2(x^2 -x)

Take the coefficient of x and divide by 2 and square it

-1 /2 = -1/2 ^2 = 1/4

Add it to each side  Remember the -2 on the outside so we need to multiply it by -2  

-2 *1/4 =  -1/2

-3 -1/2= -2(x^2 -x +1/4)

-7/2 = -2(x^2 -x +1/4)

-7/2 = -2(x-1/2)^2
