Sarah is allowed to watch no more than 10 hours of television each week. Sarah has already watched 6 hours of television. Define

sashaice [31]

Answer:

Inequality = 6 + x ≤ 10

x(Number of hours more of television Sarah can still watch this week) = 4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Define a variable, set up an inequality and solve that inequality to determine how many more hours of television Sarah can watch this week.

We are told in the question that:

Sarah is allowed to watch no more than 10 hours of television each week.

This means :

Sarah can watch tv for less than or equal to 10 hours in a week. Sarah has already watched 6 hours of television.

Hence:

The number of hours left that Sarah can watch television in a week is represented as x

Our Inequality Equation =

6hours + x hours ≤ 10 hours

6 + x ≤ 10

Solving the inequality

x ≤ 10 - 6

x ≤ 4 hours

This means Sarah still has no more than (less than or equal to) 4 hours or television left to watch in this week

Bt= 8500 *(8/27)^t/3After a special medicine is introduced into a Petri dish full of bacteria, the number of bacteria remaining

ozzi

Answer:

Every 1.71 seconds, the bacteria loses $\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$B(t) = 8500 * (\frac{8}{27})^\frac{t}{3}\\$

Required [Missing from the question]

Every __ seconds, the bacteria loses $\frac{1}{2}$

First, we model the function from t/3 to t.

$B(t) = 8500 * (\frac{8}{27})^\frac{t}{3}\\$

Apply law of indices

$B(t) = 8500 * (\frac{8^\frac{1}{3}}{27^\frac{1}{3}})^t$

Evaluate each exponent

$B(t) = 8500 * (\frac{2}{3})^t$ --- This gives the number of bacteria at time t

At time 0, we have:

$B(0) = 8500 * (\frac{2}{3})^0$

$B(0) = 8500 * 1$

$B(0) = 8500$

Let r be the time 1/2 disappears.

When 1/2 disappears, we have:

$B(r) = \frac{B(0)}{2}$

$B(r) = \frac{8500}{2}$

$B(r) = 4250$

So, we have:

$B(t) = 8500 * (\frac{2}{3})^t$

Substitute r for t

$B(r) = 8500 * (\frac{2}{3})^r$

Substitute $B(r) = 4250$

$4250 = 8500 * (\frac{2}{3})^r$

Divide both sides by 8500

$\frac{4250}{8500} = (\frac{2}{3})^r$

$\frac{1}{2} = (\frac{2}{3})^r$

Take log of both sides

$log(\frac{1}{2}) = log (\frac{2}{3})^r$

Apply law of logarithm

$log(\frac{1}{2}) = r\ log (\frac{2}{3})$

Make r the subject

$r = log(\frac{1}{2}) / log (\frac{2}{3})$

$r = \frac{-0.3010}{-0.1761}$

$r = 1.71$

<em>Hence, it reduces by 1/2 after every 1.71 seconds</em>
