Answer:

It takes 1.77 hours for the population to double.

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation for population growth:

The equation for population growth, after t hours, with a growth rate parameter of r, as a decimal, is given by:

P(t) = P(0)(1+r)^t

Growth rato parameter of 48% per hour

This means that r = 0.48. So

P(t) = P(0)(1+r)^t

P(t) = P(0)(1+0.48)^t

P(t) = P(0)(1.48)^t

How many hours does it take the size of the sample to double?

This is t for which P(t) = 2P(0). So

P(t) = P(0)(1.48)^t

2P(0) = P(0)(1.48)^t

(1.48)^t = 2

\log{(1.48)^t} = \log{2}

t\log{1.48} = \log{2}

t = \frac{\log{2}}{\log{1.48}}

t = 1.77

It takes 1.77 hours for the population to double.

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The mistake made here is in making 130 = 9x + 7. They are not the same.

The central angle = 130 degrees.

Any angle sharing the endpoints of the central angle and having it's vertex on the same side of the central angle is 1/2 the central angle.

1/2 the central angle = 130 /2 = 65

Cyclic quadrilaterals (those with all 4 points touching a circle's circumference) have opposite angles  supplementary.

65 + 9x + 7 = 180           Combine like terms on the left

72 + 9x = 180                 Subtract 72 from both sides

72 - 72 + 9x = 180-72     Combine

9x = 108                          Divide by 9

9x/9 = 108/9                  

x = 12
