Options :
A. The initial number of bacteria is 7.
B. The initial of bacteria decreases at a rate of 93% each day.
C. The number of bacteria increases at a rate of 7% each day.
D. The number of bacteria at the end of one day is 360.
Answer:
C. The number of bacteria increases at a rate of 7% each day.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the function :
f(x)=360(1.07)^x ; Number of bacteria in sample at the end of x days :
The function above represents an exponential growth function :
With the general form ; Ab^x
Where A = initial amount ;
b = growth rate
x = time
For the function :
A = initial amount of bacteria = 360
b = growth rate = (1 + r) = 1.07
If ; (1 + r) = 1.07 ; we can solve for r to obtain the daily growth rate ;
1 + r = 1.07
r = 1.07 - 1
r = 0.07
r as a percentage ;
0.07 * 100% = 7%
Answer:
yes because every time x changes y changes the same amount
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
One linear function represented by the table.
Another linear function represented by the graph.
To find:
The greater unit rate and greater y-intercept.
Solution:
Formula for slope (unit rate):

From the given table it is clear that the linear function passes through (0,5) and (5,15). The function intersect the y-axis at (0,15), so the y-intercept is 15.



So, the unit rate of first function is 2.
From the given graph it is clear that the linear function passes through (0,6) and (-4,0). The function intersect the y-axis at (0,6), so the y-intercept is 6.



So, the unit rate of first function is
.
Now,


And,

Therefore, the greater unit rate of the two functions is 2. The greater y-intercept of the two functions is 15.
Answer:
The Car.
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find the unit rate for each vehicle to figure out who is traveling faster or slower.
Car: 600/20 = 30 ft per second
Motorcycle: 300/12 = 25 ft per second
So, the Car is faster
Answer:
Substitution property of equality
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
and 
Then

Required
State the property
From the list of options, (d) answers the question.
This is so because:
Substitution property of equality states that
If
then 
In other words, both can replace one another.
So if
, then 2y + 1 can be substituted for x in
So:
becomes

<em>Hence, it is substitution property of equality</em>
