Step-by-step explanation:
The common difference d of an arithmetic sequence is
d = -
=
-
Substitute in values and solve for k, that is
5k - 1 - 2k = 6k + 2 - (5k - 1)
3k - 1 = 6k + 2 - 5k + 1
3k - 1 = k + 3 ( subtract k from both sides )
2k - 1 = 3 ( add 1 to both sides )
2k = 4 ⇒ k = 2
--------------------------------------------------------
The n th term of an arithmetic sequence is
=
+ (n - 1)d
= 2k = 2 × 2 = 4 and
d = 5k - 1 - 2k = 3k - 1 = (3 × 2) - 1 = 5
Hence
= 4 + (7 × 5) = 4 + 35 = 39
Answer: a)
b) 25165824000
Step-by-step explanation:
The exponential equation for growth is given by :-
, where a= initial value , b =multiplicative growth factor and t = time.
Given : A bacteria culture contains 1500 bacteria initially and doubles every hour.
i.e. a = 1500 and b= 2
Then, the function N that models the number of bacteria after t hours will be :
To find , the number of bacteria after 24 hours , we put t= 24 in above equation , we get
Hence, the number of bacteria after 24 hours is 25165824000.
