You and your friend enjoy riding your bicycles. Today is a beautiful sunny day, so the two of you are taking a long ride out in

the country side. Leaving your home in Sunshine, you ride 6 miles due west to the town of Happyville, where you turn south and ride 8 miles to the town of Crimson. When the sun begins to go down, you decide that it is time to start for home. There is a road that goes directly from Crimson back to Sunshine. If you want to take the shortest route home, do you take this new road, or do you go back the way you came? Justify your decision. How much further would the longer route be than the shorter route? Assume all roads are straight.

Answer:

1)hypotenuse = straight home

sqrt(36+64) = 10

straight is 10 miles

same way is 6+8 = 14 miles

(2) hypotenuse of 3,4 5 right triangle is 5

5*6 = 30

plus enough for the knots :)

(3)diagonal (hypotenuse) length is the longest

sqrt (42^2 + 84^2) = 93.9, so no

bacteria colonies can increase by 73% every 2 days. if you start with 150 bacteria microorganisms, how large would the colony be
slavikrds [6]

Using an exponential function, it is found that the colony will have 1344 bacteria after 8 days.

<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>

An increasing exponential function is modeled by:

A(t) = A(0)(1 + r)^t

In which:

  • A(0) is the initial value.
  • r is the decay rate, as a decimal.

Considering the initial amount of 150, and the growth rate of 73% each 2 days, the equation is given by:

A(t) = 150(1.73)^{\frac{t}{2}}

Hence, after 8 days, the amount of bacteria is given by:

A(8) = 150(1.73)^{\frac{8}{2}} = 1344
