Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Note:
1 gal = 4 quarts
1 pint = 0.5 quart
Re-writing all the choices in dollars and quarts and calculating how much each quart costs
A) $1 per 1 quart
B) $2 per gallon = $2 per 4 quarts = $2 ÷ 4 quarts = $0.50 per quart
C) $1.50 per 2 quarts = $1.50 ÷ 2 quarts = $0.75 per quart
D) $0.50 per 1 pint = $0.50 per 0.5 quart = $0.50 ÷ 0.5 quart = $1 per quart
If you compare all of the above, it is clear that answer B ($0.50 per quart) is the cheapest rate and hence the best deal.
The ten thousands place is bigger compared to a digit in the thousands place. Lets say I have 60,000 cookies and you have 6,000 cookies. My number is bigger.
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%
