Answer:

Can be found below

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

So we know that the bacteria doubles every (30) minutes.

2000 times 2 equals 4000 (30 minutes)

4000 times 2 equals 8000 (1 hour)

Answer for Part A:

8000 bacteria

Part B:

Now we do this function 2000(2)^14 (30 minutes long)

Answer to Part B: 

I believe the answer is 32,768,000 (Please correct me if I'm wrong) 

Hope I could help!! Have a great day/night!

Any constructional messages are greatly appreciated!!

F(x)=8x^2-2x+3 g(x)=12x^2+4x-3 what is h(x)=f(x)-g(x)?

Trava [24]

Answer: $h(x)=-4x^2-6x+6$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the function h(x), you need to subtract the function $f(x)=8x^2-2x+3$ and the function $g(x)=12x^2+4x-3$ .

$h(x)=f(x)-g(x)\\h(x)=8x^2-2x+3-(12x^2+4x-3)$

Distribute the negative sign:

$h(x)=8x^2-2x+3-12x^2-4x+3$

Now you can add the like terms:

$h(x)=-4x^2-6x+6$

Therefore, you get that the function h(x) is:

$h(x)=-4x^2-6x+6$
