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%

Jose Canseco hit three fifth-deck home runs at SkyDome/Rogers Centre during his career, including the first ever at the stadium
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

187 ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the y direction:

v₀ = 0 ft/s

Δy = 75 ft

a = 32 ft/s²

Find: t

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

(75 ft) = (0 ft/s) t + ½ (32 ft/s²) t²

t = 2.165 s

Given in the x direction:

Δx = 480 ft

a = 0 ft/s²

t = 2.165 s

Find: v₀

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

(480 ft) = v₀ (2.165 s) + ½ (32 ft/s²) (2.165 s)²

v₀ = 187 ft/s
