Answer:
The simple answer is 15 only
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the rate at which the bacteria grow be represented by the exponential equation
P(t) = P0e^kt
P(t) is the population of the bacteria after time t
P0 is the initial population
k is the constant of variation
t is the time
If the initial Population is 160 bacteria's, them the equation becomes;
P(t) = 160e^kt
b) if After 5 hours there will be 800 bacteria, this means
at t = 5 p(t) = 800
Substitute and get k
800 = 160e^5k
800/160 = e^5k
5 = e^5k
Apply ln to both sides
Ln5 = lne^5k
ln5 = 5k
k = ln5/5
k = 0.3219
Next is to calculate the population after 7hrs i.e at t = 7
P(7) = 160e^0.3219(7)
P(7) = 160e^2.2532
P(7) = 160(9.5181)
P(7) = 1522.9
Hence the population after 7houra will be approximately 1523populations
c) To calculate the time it will take the population to reach 2790
When p(t) = 2790, t = ?
2790 = 160e^0.3219t
2790/160 = e^0.3219t
17.4375 = e^0.3219t
ln17.4375 = lne^0.3219t
2.8587 = 0.3219t
t = 2.8587/0.3219
t = 8.88 hrs
Hence it will take approximately 9hrs for the population to reach 2790
Answer:
inches: 0 and 7
Step-by-step explanation:
because you are subtracting by 1
Answer:
x ≤ -15
Step-by-step explanation:
-x / 3 ≥ 5
multiply by 3
-x ≥ 15
add x to both sides and subtract 15 from both sides
-15 ≥ x or x ≤ -15
Answer: mean=87, median=87.5 and range=18
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean:
First add all the numbers
78+95+77+92+87+79+94+86+88+94 = 870
Then you divide the answer by counting the numbers
870÷10
=87
Median:
First arrange the numbers in ascending order (from smallest to largest)
77, 78, 79, 86, 87, 88, 92, 94, 94, 95
pick the two middle numbers which is 87 and 88
then you do 
= 175÷2
= 87.5
range = Largest number - smallest number
= 95-77
= 18
