Answer:
2km/m
Step-by-step explanation:
6 laps = 10km
(because 3 x 2 = 6 and double 5km as well)
Distance divide time = speed
20 mins divided by 10km = 2km per minute
3/15 reduces to 1/5
1/5 = 0.2....0.2 * 100 = 20%
C = (F - 32) then F = C + 32
Answer: Hello there!
We know that the culture has 2000 bacteria initially (at t = 0 min), and it doubles when t = 40min, again at t = 80 min, and so on
And the rate of grouth is proportional to the population, then we can obtain an expression of the form:
P(t) = 2000*k(t) where k(t) is the factor that defines the growth of the population:
we know that:
p(0) = 2000*k(0) = 2000
p(40) = 2000*k(40) = 2000*2 = 4000
p(80) = 2000*k(80) = 2000*2*2 = 8000
etc
then we can see that k(t) = 2^(t/40)
where k(0) = 1, k(40) = 2, k(80) = 2*2, etc
then the function that models the population of the culture is:
p(t) = 2000*2^(t/40)
where t is in minutes.
