Answer:

Step-by-step Explanation:

Step 1. Divide 1200 by 300:

1200 ÷ 300 = 4

Step 2. Multiply 4 by 2:

4 * 2 = 8

During optimal conditions, the rate of change of the population of a certain organism is proportional to the population at time

Lana71 [14]

Answer:

The population is of 500 after 10.22 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change of the population of a certain organism is proportional to the population at time t, in hours.

This means that the population can be modeled by the following differential equation:

$\frac{dP}{dt} = Pr$

In which r is the growth rate.

Solving by separation of variables, then integrating both sides, we have that:

$\frac{dP}{P} = r dt$

$\int \frac{dP}{P} = \int r dt$

$\ln{P} = rt + K$

Applying the exponential to both sides:

$P(t) = Ke^{rt}$

In which K is the initial population.

At time t = 0 hours, the population is 300.

This means that K = 300. So

$P(t) = 300e^{rt}$

At time t = 24 hours, the population is 1000.

This means that P(24) = 1000. We use this to find the growth rate. So

$P(t) = 300e^{rt}$

$1000 = 300e^{24r}$

$e^{24r} = \frac{1000}{300}$

$e^{24r} = \frac{10}{3}$

$\ln{e^{24r}} = \ln{\frac{10}{3}}$

$24r = \ln{\frac{10}{3}}$

$r = \frac{\ln{\frac{10}{3}}}{24}$

$r = 0.05$

$P(t) = 300e^{0.05t}$

At what time t is the population 500?

This is t for which P(t) = 500. So

$P(t) = 300e^{0.05t}$

$500 = 300e^{0.05t}$

$e^{0.05t} = \frac{500}{300}$

$e^{0.05t} = \frac{5}{3}$

$\ln{e^{0.05t}} = \ln{\frac{5}{3}}$

$0.05t = \ln{\frac{5}{3}}$

$t = \frac{\ln{\frac{5}{3}}}{0.05}$

$t = 10.22$

The population is of 500 after 10.22 hours.

How to use a protractor.

damaskus [11]

Answer:

You can see below!

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically, a protractor is used to measure angles. You probably have a semi-circle shaped one. Looking at the bottom middle of the protractor should show you lines intersecting each other at a point. If you have an angle on a piece of paper, place that point on the ends of the line segments making up the angle. Then, check where each line of the angle crosses the numbers on the outer rim. That shows you the measure of the angle you are examining. It can be a bit tricky, but with practice you'll get it in no time!

Serjik [45]

Answer:

m=2-2

m=0

Step-by-step explanation:

U need to do substitution

So u carry both 2 from that side to cross the equal to sign. One becomes positive because it is carrying a negative sign at the other side
