Answer:

81 times the original size.

Step-by-step explanation:

AA0ktA=3A0=?=?=25hours=A0ekt

Substitute the values in the formula.

3A0=A0ek⋅25

Solve for k. Divide each side by A0.

3A0A0=e25k

Take the natural log of each side.

ln3=lne25k

Use the power property.

ln3=25klne

Simplify.

ln3=25k

Divide each side by 25.

ln325=k

Approximate the answer.

k≈0.044

We use this rate of growth to predict the number of bacteria there will be in 100 hours.

AA0ktA=3A0=?=ln325=100hours=A0ekt

Substitute in the values.

A=A0eln325⋅100

Evaluate.

A=81A0

At this rate of growth, we can expect the population to be 81 times as large as the original population.

The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "<span>1,903.73."</span>

Solution:
(1) Multiply the percent favored to the Number surveyed
0.60 * 2700 = 1,620
0.55 * 1900 = 1,045
0.40 * 1000 = 400

So the total is 3,065

(2) Get the weighted mean:
Add the total percent favored = 0.66 + 0.55 + 0.41 = 1.61
Weighted mean = 3,065 / 1.61 = 1,903.73
