Neither of them are correct. When you plug in both of the fractions into the equation, you get answers like 2/9 (from plugging in 1/3) and 1/9 (from plugging in 1/6). None of them are equal to 9.
Answer:
2 hours: 3968 <u>[I don't understand the $ sign in the answer box]</u>
At midnight: 12137
Step-by-step explanation:
The bacteria are increasing by 15% every hour. So for every hour we will have what we started with, plus 15% more.
The "15% more" can be represented mathematically with (1 + 0.15) or 1.15. Let's call this the "growth factor" and assign it the variable b. b is (1 + percent increase).
Since this per hour, in 1 hour we'll have (3000)*(1.15) = 3450
At the end of the second hour we're increased by 15% again:
(3450)*(1.15) = 3968.
Each additional hour add another (1.15) factor, If we assign a to be the starting population, this can be represented by:
P = a(1.15)^t for this sample that increase 15% per hour. t is time, in hours.
If a represents the growth factor, and P is the total population, the general expression is
P = ab^t
Using this for a = 3000 and b = 1.15, we can find the total population at midnight after starting at 2PM. That is a 10 hour period, so t = 10
P = (3000)*(1.15)^10
P = 12137
Depends on the type of AB, is it AB positive or AB negative
<span>AB-positive: 3.4 percent
<span>AB-negative: 0.6 percent
if you need both add the percentages together</span></span>
Answer:
62.8 in2
Step-by-step explanation:
With round pizza we need to
find the area of each pizza in
square inches, then determine
the difference.
The area of a circle is given by:
A = πr2
12 inch diameter, radius = 6
a = π(62) = 36π in2
8 inch diameter, radius = 4
a = π(42) = 16π in2
Difference: 36π - 16π = 20π in2
using 3.14 for pi, the difference is
20(3.14) = 62.8 in2
