What you can do is split one of the binomials and then apply the distributive property if f(x) = (x + 3)(x -2) split the 1st binomial f(x) = x(x -2) + 3(x -2) now apply the distributive property to get
f(x)=x2−2x+3x−6
which simplifies to
f(x)=x2+x−6
You would multiply both and then the answer you would put into ratio form
The growth of the bacteria is expressed as:
<span>B(t) = 4 e^0.8t
</span>
where t is the time in units of hours. If the bacteria is allowed to grow for 8 hours then the number of bacteria present would be,
<span>B(t) = 4 e^0.8(8)
</span><span>B(t) = 2407</span>
Answer:
I'm not sure, but it might be 120.
