Answer:
a. Relative Growth rate = 10% (6/60 * 100)
b. Number of cells after t hours = 50 * 1.1^t
c. Rate of growth after 6 hours = 77.2% (1.1⁶ - 1)
d. The number of cells after 6 hours is
= 89 cells
Step-by-step explanation:
A cell divides into two cells every 20 minutes
In one hour, the cell will divide into 60/20 * 2 = 6 cells
Each cell growth 6 cells per hour
Initial population of a culture = 50 cells
t = time in hours
a. Relative Growth rate = 10% (6/60 * 100)
b. Number of cells after t hours = 50 * 1.1^t
c. Rate of growth after 6 hours = 77.2% (1.1⁶ - 1)
d. The number of cells after 6 hours = initial population * growth factor
= 50 * 1.772
= 88.6
= 89 cells
Answer:
y = -1/3 x
Step-by-step explanation:
what is the slope intercept form for x+3y=0
Slope intercept form solves for y:
x + 3y = 0
subtract x from both sides:
x + 3y - x = 0 - x
3y = -x
divide both sides by 3:
3y/3 = -x/3
y = -1/3 x
