The growth of bacteria is modeled as P = P0ert. In a sample culture, the bacteria grows at a rate of 6 percent per minute. If th

e initial count in the sample is 1,000, how many bacteria will there be after five minutes? (Consider e = 2.718.)
A) 1,005
B) 1,030
C) 1,350
D) 2,350
E) 20,079

Initial number of Bacteria = Po = 1000
Growth rate = r = 6% = 0.06
We want to find the number of Bacteria after 5 minutes.

Using the given equation, we can write:

P= P_{o}e^{rt} \\  \\ 
P=1000(2.718)^{0.06*5}  \\  \\ 
P=1000(2.718)^{0.3} \\  \\ 
P=1350

Rounding of to nearest integer, the number of Bacteria after 5 minutes will be 1350. So option C gives the correct answer

Through: (-3,-5), parallel to y = 2x + 2​
Archy [21]

Answer:

y = 2x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you have an equation and a point, all you need to do is substitute the coordinates into the equation and then solve for the y-intercept (or "b"):

y = mx + b

y = 2x + 2

(-3, -5)

-5 = 2(-3) + b

-5 = -6 + b

-5 + 6 = b

b = 1

Now you have your final equation:

y = 2x + 1

*Remember that parallel lines have the same slope, so finding a new slope is not needed!

How to change a precent to a decimals
andrew11 [14]
To change a percent to a decimal, you must move the decimal point inwards two places. For example, say you have 45%. To change 45% to a decimal, move the decimal point in two places, and you will have 0.45. Once you’ve moved the decimal, don’t add the percent symbol, because it’s no longer a percent.

Elenna [48]

Answer:

-2.2y - 1.8

Step-by-step explanation:

We are to simplify the expression:

1.2y + 4.5 - 3.4y - 6.3

Collect like terms:

1.2y - 3.4y + 4.5 - 6.3

Simplify:

-2.2y - 1.8

That is the answer.
