A colony of bacteria triples in link every 10 minutes. It's length is now 1 mm. How long will be in 40 minutes

Nuetrik [128]

If the bacteria is tripling every 10 minutes, that means the "rate of increase" on that period is 200%, so if say the current amount is "c", 200% of "c" is just 2c, so c + 2c is 3c, a tripled amount.

$\bf \textit{Periodic Exponential Growth}\\\\
A=I(1 + r)^{\frac{t}{p}}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\
I=\textit{initial amount}\to &1\\
r=rate\to 2\%\to \frac{200}{100}\to &2.00\\
t=\textit{elapsed time}\to &40\\
p=period\to &10
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
A=1(1 + 2)^{\frac{40}{10}}$

Assume the random variable X has a binomial distribution with the given probability of obtaining a success. Find the following p

Lisa [10]

Answer:

0.0064

0.00032

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the details:

P(X > 3), n = 5, p = 0.2

The binomial distribution is related using the formula:

P(x = x) = nCx * p^x * q^(n-x)

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.2 = 0.8

P(X > 3) = p(x = 4) + p(x = 5)

P(x = 4) = 5C4 * 0.2^4 * 0.8^1 = 5 * 0.2^4 * 0.8^1 = 0.0064

P(x = 5) = 5C5 * 0.2^5 * 0.8^0 = 1 * 0.2^5 * 0.8^0 = 0.00032
