This is a geometric sequence but you don't know the growth factor, so you would solve for it first.

2400= 2000(x)^8

1.2= x^8

x= 1.02305188

You can round depending on what your teacher prefers. 
Now you can plug in your growth factor and solve.

A(19)= 2000(1.02305188)^19

A(19)= 2000(1.54189747739)

A(19)= 3083.79495477

After 19 hours, 3,084 bacteria will be present.

J. Reexamine the sequence 20, 14, 8, 2, ... from the problem
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

The n th of the given sequence is t_{n} = 26-6 n

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1</u> :-

Given sequence is 20,14,8,2,.......this sequence in arithmetic progression but this sequence is decreasing sequence.

given first term is 20 and difference isd = second term- first term = 14-20=-6

now the nth term of given sequence is

by using formula t_{n}=a+(n-1)d

t_{n}= 20+(n-1)(-6)

t_{n}= 20-6 n+6

final answer:-

t_{n} = 26-6 n

<u>verification</u>:-

t_{n} = 26-6 n

put n=1 we get first term is 20

put n=2 we get second term is 14

put n=3 we get third term is 8

put n=4 we get fourth term is 2

so the n th term of sequence is

t_{n} = 26-6 n

devlian [24]

Answer:

The predicted time, in minutes, that it took to gather the items if the order has 22 items is 63.8905 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Regression Output :

Predictor                            Coefficient

Constant                             3.0979

Square root of items          2.7633

R.sq.- 96.7%

So, with this data the regression equation is,

\hat{y}=3.0979+2.7633x

Now we are supposed to find the predicted time, in minutes, that it took to gather the items if the order has 22 items

Substitute x =22 in equation

\hat{y}=3.0979+2.7633(22)

\hat{y}=63.8905

Hence the predicted time, in minutes, that it took to gather the items if the order has 22 items is 63.8905 minutes
