Answer:

The bacteria took 1 hour and 40 minutes to fill the first bottle and it took only 10 minutes to fill 3 more. This is because of the amount of bacteria, for the first bottle there were only a few so it took them time to grow and multiply but once there were a lot the process starts to get faster. Think of it like this if you have 1 bacteria it will multiply into 2 bacteria. The 2 will multiply into 4, then 8, 16, 32, 62, 124 and so on. Do you notice how the numbers are getting bigger every time? Each number is being multiplied by 2 so the growth rate speeds up very quickly, which is why it took the bacteria 1 hour and 40 minutes to fill the first bottle and only 10 minutes to fill the other 3.

(I'm not sure but this is my theory)

Answer:

The bacteria took more time to double from 1 cell to a bottle full of cells. Once the bottle was full, each cell in the full bottle doubled, causing an additional bottle to be filled in 5 minutes. Then the 2 full bottles doubled in the next 5 minutes, causing all 3 bottles to be full

certain computer virus can damage any file with probability 35%, independently of other files. Suppose this virus enters a folde
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

0.623 is the probability that between 800 and 850 files get damaged.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information:

We treat virus can damage computer as a success.

P( virus can damage computer) = 35% = 0.35

The conditions for normal distribution are satisfied.

By normal approximation:

\mu = np = 2400(0.35) = 840\\\sigma = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{2400(0.35)(1-0.35)} = $$23.36

We have to evaluate probability that between 800 and 850 files get damaged.

P(800 \leq x \leq 850) = P(\displaystyle\frac{800 - 840}{23.36} \leq z \leq \displaystyle\frac{850-840}{23.36}) = P(-1.712 \leq z \leq 0)\\\\= P(z \leq 0.428) - P(z < -1.712)\\= 0.666 - 0.043 = 0.623 = 62.3\%

P(800 \leq x \leq 850) = 62.3\%

0.623 is the probability that between 800 and 850 files get damaged.

The coefficient of xy in the product of (4x2 + 2y) and (3x + y2) is
icang [17]
In polynomials, when a term contains both a number and a variable part, the number is called the co-efficient. 
In this problem the co-efficient of x = 
(8+y)+(3x+y2)
3y+3x+8
Therefore the co efficient of x and y is 3
