Answer:

1092

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the number of bacteria in the colony t minutes after the initial count modeled by the function B(t)=9(3)^t. We are asked to find the average rate of change in the number of bacteria over the first 6 minutes of the experiment.

We will use average rate of change formula to solve our given problem.

\text{Average rate of change}=\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}

Upon substituting our given values, we will get:

\text{Average rate of change}=\frac{b(6)-b(0)}{6-0}

\text{Average rate of change}=\frac{9(3)^6-9(3)^0}{6}

\text{Average rate of change}=\frac{9(729)-9(1)}{6}

\text{Average rate of change}=\frac{6561-9}{6}

\text{Average rate of change}=\frac{6552}{6}

\text{Average rate of change}=1092

Therefore, the average rate of change in the number of bacteria is 1092 bacteria per minute.

MAXImum [283]
Yes correct x is 48.02 here is why.

simplify 45.6/109.2 to 0.417582

multiply both sides by 115

simplify 0.417582 x 115 to 48.021978

Henry is up for retirement after 35 long years at his pharmacy. Before retiring, he would like to know how much he would receive
satela [25.4K]

To find how much Henry can expect to receive from Social Security on a monthly basis, we first need to find how much he cant expect to receive from social security per year.

We know form our problem that Henry averaged an annual salary of $45,620, so to find how much can Henry expect to receive from Social Security per year, we just need to find the 42% of $45,620.

To find the 42% of $45,620, we are going to convert 42% to a decimal by dividing it by 100%, and then we are going to multiply the resulting decimal by $45,620:

\frac{42}{100} =0.42

Social security annual payment = (0.42)($45,620) = $19,160.40

Since there are 12 month in a year, we just need to divided the social security annual payment by 12 to find how much he can expect to receive each month.

Social security monthly payment = \frac{19,160.40}{12} = $1.596.70

We can conclude that Henry can expect to receive $1.596.70 monthly from Social Security.
