Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
Cells are divided into two cell every 20mins, this implies that the half-life is 20mins
Initial population growth is 60cells
Growth rate r?
Population growth is modeled as
P(t) = Po•exp(rt)
Where,
Po is the initial growth at t= 0
Po= 60
P(t) is population at any time t.
Since the population doubles every 20mins(⅓hr)
Then, P(⅓) = 2×60 =120
Then, P(t) = 120cells
So, applying the formula
P(t) = Po•exp(rt)
120 = 60•exp(⅓r)
120/60 = exp(r/3)
2 = exp(r/3)
Take In of both sides
In(2) = r/3
Cross multiply
r = 3In(2)
r = 2.079 /hour
The growth rate is 2.079/hour.
Multply across the fraction so
1/2 * 3/4= (1*3)/(2*4)=3\8
Hey there
9a+3+2a+10
You have to collect like terms
To simplify you have to add 9a and 2a. Then 3 and 10
9a+2a= 11a
10+3= 13
The answer is 11a+13
hope this helps <span />
If 3.14 is rational, why should pi also be rational ?
The answer to your question is: Because pi is not 3.14 .
The product of 3 1/5 and 5/8 is 2.
