Why is the vertex of vertex form y=a(x-h)^2+k (h,k) rather than (-h,k)? If that was y=2(x-5)^2+6, the vertex would be at (5,6) w

Answer:

  (5, 6) is (h, k)

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertex form is an instance of the transformation of parent function f(x) = x². It is vertically scaled by a factor of 'a', and translated so the vertex is point (h, k). That is, the transformed vertex is h units right and k units up from that of the parent function (0, 0).

Parent:

  f(x) = x^2

Transformed:

  f(x) = a(x -h)^2 +k

__

When you compare the form to your specific instance, you need to pay attention to what it is that you're comparing. As the attachment shows, ...

  • a = 2
  • -h = -5   ⇒   h = 5
  • k = 6

Hence the vertex is (h, k) = (5, 6). The second attachment shows this on a graph.

Answer: \bold{a)\ P(t)=P_o\cdot e^{t\cdot ln(2.7)}}

               b) 5314

               c) ln 2.7

               d) 4.6 hrs

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

P(t) = P_o\cdot e^{kt}\\\\\bullet \text{P(t) is the number of bacteria after t hours} \\\bullet P_o\text{ is the initial number of bacteria}\\\bullet \text{k is the rate of growth}\\\bullet \text{t is the time (in hours)}\\\\\\270=100\cdot e^{k(1)}\\2.7=e^k\\ln\ 2.7=\ln e^k\\\boxed{ln\ 2.7=k}\\\\\text{So the equation to find the number of bacteria is: }\boxed{P(t)=P_o\cdot e^{t\cdot ln(2.7)}}\\\\\\P(4)=100\cdot e^{4\cdot ln(2.7)}\\.\qquad =\boxed{5314}

10,000=100\cdot e^{t\cdot ln(2.7)}\\100=e^{t\cdot ln(2.7)}\\ln\ 100=ln\ e^{t\cdot ln(2.7)}\\ln\ 100=t\cdot ln(2.7)\\\dfrac{ln\ 100}{ln\ 2.7}=t\\\\\boxed{4.6=t}
