In a laboratory experiment, the population of bacteria in a petri dish started off at 160 and is growing exponentially at 6% per

hour. Write a function to represent the population of bacteria after t hours, where the rate of change per minute can be found from a constant in the function. Round all coefficients in the function to four decimal places. Also, determine the percentage rate of change per minute, to the nearest hundredth of a percent.

The exponential function is given by y = 160(1.06)ˣ

<h3>Exponential function</h3>

An exponential function is in the form:

y = abˣ

where a is the initial value of y, b is the multiplier, y, x are variables.

Let y represent the amount of bacteria after x hours.

Given an initial 160 bacteria, hence a = 160.

Also b = 100% + 6% = 106% = 1.06

The exponential function is given by y = 160(1.06)ˣ

Levart [38]

Answer:

The acceleration is: a = -2 m/s²

The negative sign indicates that velocity is decreasing with time.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

  • Initial velocity u = 10 m/s
  • Final velocity v = 0
  • Time taken t = 5 seconds

To determine

Acceleration a = ?

Using the formula to determine the acceleration

a = (v - u) / t

substituting u = 10 m/s, v = 0 and t = 5

a = (0 - 10) / 5

a = -10 / 5

a = -2 m/s²

Thus,

The acceleration is: a = -2 m/s²

The negative sign indicates that velocity is decreasing with time.

I don't understand the question.​
enot [183]

Answer:

The question is asking which combinations of 2x^2-4x+1 make different types of equations. y=2x^2 makes a quadratic equation, y=-4x+1 makes a linear equation, and y=1 makes a horizontal line
