Year 1=40000
Year 2=40000*.95=38000
Year 3 = 40000*.95*.95=36100

Year 1=40000
Year 2 =40000*1.05*.95=39,900
Year 3=40000*1.05*1.05*.95*.95=39,800

A culture started with 5,000 bacteria. After 4 hours, it grew to 6,000 bacteria. predict how many bacteria will be present after
Tasya [4]

Answer:

y = 10852 bacteria

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is exponential growth

y = a  b^x  where a is the initial amount , b is the growth rate and x is the time

At time 0, we have 5000 bacteria

5000 = a * b^0

5000 = a *1

a = 1

At 4 hours, we have 6000 bacteria

6000 = 5000 * b^4

Divide each side by 5000

6000/5000 = b^4

6/5 = b^4

Take the 4th root of each side

(6/5)^(1/4) = (b^4)^(1/4)

1.046635139 = b

Our equation is

y = 5000 (1.046635139) ^ x

We want to find the number of bacteria present after 17 hours

y = 5000 (1.046635139)^17

y=10851.51313

To the nearest whole number

y = 10852 bacteria

Rebotar Inc.makes basketballs.Their fixed costs are $3,450.
melomori [17]

Answer:

<em>Since the profit is positive, Rebotar not only broke even, they had earnings.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Function Modeling</u>

The costs, incomes, and profits of Rebotar Inc. can be modeled by means of the appropriate function according to known conditions of the market.

It's known their fixed costs are $3,450 and their variable costs are $12 per basketball produced and sold. Thus, the total cost of Rebotar is:

C(x) = 12x + 3,450

Where x is the number of basketballs sold.

It's also known each basketball is sold at $25, thus the revenue (income) function is:

R(x) = 25x

The profit function is the difference between the costs and revenue:

P(x) = 25x - (12x + 3,450)

Operating:

P(x) = 25x - 12x - 3,450

P(x) = 13x - 3,450

If x=300 basketballs are sold, the profits are:

P(300) = 13(300) - 3,450

P(300) = 3,900 - 3,450

P(300) = 450

Since the profit is positive, Rebotar not only broke even, they had earnings.
