Answer:
115 bacteria
Step-by-step explanation:
The function that gives the number of bacteria in a science experiment is:
f(x) = 30(1.4)^x
Where x is the number of days
After 4 days (x = 4), the number of bacteria will be:
f(4) = 30 * (1.4)^4
f(4) = 39 * 3.8416
f(4) = 115.248 = 115 (To the nearest whole number)
The number of bacteria after 4 days is 115.
![\bf f(x)=(x-6)e^{-3x}\\\\ -----------------------------\\\\ \cfrac{dy}{dx}=1\cdot e^{-3x}+(x-6)-3e^{-3x}\implies \cfrac{dy}{dx}=e^{-3x}[1-3(x-6)] \\\\\\ \cfrac{dy}{dx}=e^{-3x}(19-3x)\implies \cfrac{dy}{dx}=\cfrac{19-3x}{e^{3x}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbf%20f%28x%29%3D%28x-6%29e%5E%7B-3x%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%0A-----------------------------%5C%5C%5C%5C%0A%5Ccfrac%7Bdy%7D%7Bdx%7D%3D1%5Ccdot%20e%5E%7B-3x%7D%2B%28x-6%29-3e%5E%7B-3x%7D%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7Bdy%7D%7Bdx%7D%3De%5E%7B-3x%7D%5B1-3%28x-6%29%5D%0A%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%0A%5Ccfrac%7Bdy%7D%7Bdx%7D%3De%5E%7B-3x%7D%2819-3x%29%5Cimplies%20%5Ccfrac%7Bdy%7D%7Bdx%7D%3D%5Ccfrac%7B19-3x%7D%7Be%5E%7B3x%7D%7D)
set the derivative to 0, solve for "x" to get any critical points
keep in mind, setting the denominator to 0, also gives us critical points, however, in this case, the denominator will never be 0, so... no critical points from there
there's only 1 critical point anyway, and do a first-derivative test on it, check a number before it and after it, to see what sign the derivative has, and thus, whether the graph is going up or down, to check for any extrema
The answer that you are looking for, for this question is D. Four thirds
Step 1: Isolate the absolute value expression.Step2: Set the quantity inside the absolute value notation equal to + and - the quantity on the other side of the equation.Step 3: Solve for the unknown in both equations.Step 4: Check your answer analytically or graphically.
