Answer:

After 43 minutes, the bacteria will be 40 remainings.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Initial population of bacteria A_o = 800

After time (t) = 18 mins

A = 240

Using the model:

A = A_o e^{k*t}

240=800 e^{k*18}

\dfrac{240}{800}= e^{18k}

0.3= e^{18k}

By applying natural log on both sides, we get:

In(0,3) = 18k (In e)

- 1.20397 = 18 k * (1)

18 k = -1.20397

k =  -1.20397/ 18

k = - 0.06688

k ≅ -0.07

After time (t), the bacteria population (A) = 40

Now;

40 = 800 e^{k*t}

\dfrac{40 }{800}= e^{-0.07*t}

0.05= e^{-0.07*t}

In (0.05) = -0.07t * In (e)

- 2.9957 = - 0.07t

t = - 2.9957/ -0.07

t = 42.795

t ≅ 43 minutes

Thus, after 43 minutes, the bacteria will be 40 remainings.

Hence find the value of x that satisfies the two equations y =
sammy [17]

Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

since y=5x/2-7, and y=4x/3

         so 5x/2-7=4x/3

              5x/2-4x/3= 7

              15x-8x/6=7

               7x/6=7

               x= 7*6/7= 6
