Answer:

x=7,x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2-5x-14=0

x^2-7x+2x-14=0

x(x-7)+2(x-7)=0

(x-7)(x+2)=0

x=7;x=-2

A bacteria culture starts with 160 bacteria and grows at a rate proportional to its size. After 5 hours there will be 800 bacter
Leona [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the rate at which the bacteria grow be represented by the exponential equation

P(t) = P0e^kt

P(t) is the population of the bacteria after time t

P0 is the initial population

k is the constant of variation

t is the time

If the initial Population is 160 bacteria's, them the equation becomes;

P(t) = 160e^kt

b) if After 5 hours there will be 800 bacteria, this means

at t = 5 p(t) = 800

Substitute and get k

800 = 160e^5k

800/160 = e^5k

5 = e^5k

Apply ln to both sides

Ln5 = lne^5k

ln5 = 5k

k = ln5/5

k = 0.3219

Next is to calculate the population after 7hrs i.e at t = 7

P(7) = 160e^0.3219(7)

P(7) = 160e^2.2532

P(7) = 160(9.5181)

P(7) = 1522.9

Hence the population after 7houra will be approximately 1523populations

c) To calculate the time it will take the population to reach 2790

When p(t) = 2790, t = ?

2790 = 160e^0.3219t

2790/160 = e^0.3219t

17.4375 = e^0.3219t

ln17.4375 = lne^0.3219t

2.8587 = 0.3219t

t = 2.8587/0.3219

t = 8.88 hrs

Hence it will take approximately 9hrs for the population to reach 2790

Picture `: what is the value of x?
Sphinxa [80]

Subtract the sum of the two angles from 180 degrees. The sum of all the angles of a triangle always equals 180 degrees. Write down the difference you found when subtracting the sum of the two angles from 180 degrees. This is the value of X.

the coordinates of the vertices of a rectangle in order are (5,2), (-1,4), (-2,1) and (4,-1). what is the perimeter of the recta
Anna [14]

Answer:

19 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Plot points  A(5,2), B(-1,4), C(-2,1) and D(4,-1) on the coordinate plane. Find lengths of all sides as distances between two points:

AB=\sqrt{(-1-5)^2+(4-2)^2}=\sqrt{6^2+2^2}=\sqrt{36+4}=\sqrt{40}=2\sqrt{10}\ units\\ \\BC=\sqrt{(-2-(-1))^2+(1-4)^2}=\sqrt{1^2+3^2}=\sqrt{1+9}=\sqrt{10}\ units\\ \\CD=\sqrt{(4-(-2))^2+(-1-1)^2}=\sqrt{6^2+2^2}=\sqrt{36+4}=\sqrt{40}=2\sqrt{10}\ units\\ \\DA=\sqrt{(5-4)^2+(2-(-1))^2}=\sqrt{1^2+3^2}=\sqrt{1+9}=\sqrt{10}\ units

The perimeter of the rectangle ABCD is

AB+BC+CD+DA=2\sqrt{10}+\sqrt{10}+2\sqrt{10}+\sqrt{10}=6\sqrt{10}\approx 18.97\ units\approx 19\ units

The hourly wages earned by 20 employees are shown in the first box-and-whisker plot below. The person earning $15 per hour quits
agasfer [191]

Answer:

<h2>The mean decreases, and the median remains the same.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that a box plot is made by the quartiles of the distribution, the maximum value and the minimum value. So, from a box plot we can deduct the range, the median and the interquartile range.

In this case, the median remains the same at $9.5 per hour. The median is indicated by the middle line of the box, and you can observe that it doesn't change.

Now, the range of the data set decreases from 7 to 3.

On the other hand, the mean must decrease, because data greater than $11 doesn't exist in the box plot number 2, and the mean is a central measure sensible to those changes.

Therefore, the right answer is <em>The mean decreases, and the median remains the same.</em>
