Which bacteria sample (A or B) had a smaller initial population? What was that value?

Mathematics
1 answer:
zubka84 [21]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

B has a smaller initial population of 500

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for complete question

Required

The bacteria with the smaller initial population

The initial population is at x = 0

For bacteria A;

A(x) = 600 when x = 0

For bacteria B, we have:

B(x) = 500(2)^x

Substitute 0 for x

B(x) = 500(2)^0

B(x) = 500*1

B(x) = 500

So; when x = 0

A(x) = 600 and B(x) = 500

Because; 500 < 600

We can conclude that B has a smaller initial population of 500

Answer:

See below. No image this time.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

  • P(2, 8) → P'(-5, 1), which it went 7 units to the left, and 7 units down. Here is the equation: (x - 7, y - 7).

2.

  • R(-4, -9) → R'(-4, -2), which went 7 units up. Here is the equation: (x, y + 7).

3.

  • M(10, -3) → M'(3, 4), which went 7 units left, 7 units up. Here's the equation: (x - 7, y + 7).

4.

  • K(7, 11) → K'(0, 11), which went 7 units left. Here is the equation: (x - 7, y).

IQ scores are normally normally distributed with a mean of 100 and center deviation of 15 if one person is randomly selected wha
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

22.86% probability that the persons IQ is between 110 and 130

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 100, \sigma = 15

If one person is randomly selected what is the probability that the persons IQ is between 110 and 130

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 130 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 110.

X = 130

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{130 - 100}{15}

Z = 2

Z = 2 has a pvalue of 0.9772

X = 110

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{110 - 100}{15}

Z = 0.67

Z = 0.67 has a pvalue of 0.7486

0.9772 - 0.7486 = 0.2286

22.86% probability that the persons IQ is between 110 and 130

Find the zeros of x^2+4x=-10 using the quadratic formula
ipn [44]
X^2+4+10=0
x=(-4(+/-)root16-40)/2, so we now know that the zeros are imaginary, because you can't square root a negative number and 16-40 is -24
so the two roots are…
-2+iroot6 and -2-iroot6
