A bacteria culture contains 1500 bacteria initially and doubles every hour. Find a function N that models the number of bacteria after t hours. Write out how many bacteria there will be for t = 0, 1, 2, etc. and think about how you are getting those values.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: N(t) = (2^t)*1500

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define the hour "zero" as the initial population.

So if N(t)  is the number of bacteria after t hours, then:

N(0) = 1500.

Now, we know that the population doubles every hour, so we will have that after one hour, at t = 1

N(1) = 2*1500 = 3000

after two hours, at t = 2.

N(2) = 2*(2*1500) = (2^2)*1500

After three hours, at t = 3

N(3) = 2*(2^2)*1500 = (2^3)*1500

So we already can see the pattern, the number of bacteria after t hours will be:

N(t) = (2^t)*1500

Mrs canales class is selling pizza to earn money for a field trip. For every pizza sold the class makes $5.35. They have already earned $182.90 toward their $750 goal. How many more pizzas must they sell to earn $750 (algebraic approach) Thanks

Answers

Answer:

They still have to earn:

$750 - $182.9 = $567.1

and if they make $5.35 for every pizza sold:

$567.1 : $5.35 = 106

They must sell 106 pizzas more.

Answer:

[tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression;

[tex]\lim_{x \to \infty} \dfrac{x+x^2}{5x^2}[/tex]

To find the limit of the function, we need to first divide through by the highest degree if x i.e x² as shown;

[tex]\lim_{x \to \infty} \dfrac{\frac{x}{x^2} +\frac{x^2}{x2}}{\frac{5x^2}{x^2} }\\ \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{\frac{1}{x}+ 1 }{5}\\As \ x \ tends \ to \ \infty, \ \frac{1}{x} \ tends \ to \ zero. \ Hence;\\ \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{\frac{1}{x}+ 1 }{5} = \frac{0+1}{5}\\= \dfrac{1}{5}[/tex]

Hence the limit of the function as x tends to infinity is [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is the vertical drop or rise to the horizontal distance;

   Slope  = [tex]\frac{vertical interval}{horizontal distance}[/tex]  

 Let us convert 4 miles to feet;

         1 mile  = 5280ft

        4 miles  = 4 x 5280 = 21120ft

Slope  = [tex]\frac{1950 - 1000}{21120}[/tex]   = 0.05

The slope is 0.05

the coordinate of vertex X'? *
W (1,6)
Y (3, 2)
z (1,2)
Explain how you determined your answer.
Your answer

Answers

Answer:

     X' = (6 , 12)

Step-by-step explanation:

Dilation means to stretch or increase with some factor.

We are given the coordinates of rectangle as

W (1,6), Y (3, 2), Z (1,2)

plot this on the Cartesian plane

Coordinate of X is missing

Since the shape is a rectangle so its mid point diagonal intersection point will remain same.

using this the diagonal is

W (1,6) and Y (3,2) are diagonal points

D = ([tex]\frac{3+1}{2} , \frac{6+2}{2}[/tex]) = (2, 4)

Coordinate of X will be

X( x,y) and Z (1,2)

X = ( [tex]\frac{x+1}{2}, \frac{y+2}{2}[/tex]) = (2,4)

this will give x= 3 and y = 6

X ( 3,6)

Now Dilating by the scale factor of 2

Coordinate of X' = X( 2x, 2y)

                       X' = ( 2*3, 2*6)

                       X' = (6 , 12)

Kelly is paid 12.50 per hour she worked for 14hours she gave her mom 1/5 how much money does Kelly have left

Answers

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Kelly earns 12.50 dollars per hour, and she works 14 hours, you can multiply 12.50 by 14.

1.      12.50*14=175

Kelly gives 1/5 of her money away, so she should be left with 4/5.

2.     4/5*12.50=10

So the answer is 10.

On 1st September 2014 there were 5400 trees planted in a wood.
On 1st September 2015, only 5184 of these trees were still alive.
It is assumed that the number of trees still alive is given by N = art
where / is the number of trees still alive t years after 1st September 2014.
a) Write down the value

c) Show that on 1st September 2040
the number of trees still alive is predicted
o have decreased by over 65% compared
with September 2014.

b) Show that r = 0.96​

Answers

Answer:

1. a = 5400

2. r = 0.96

3. Percentage decrement = 65.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

N = ar^t

Solving (a): Write down the value of a

a implies the first term

And from the question, we understand that the initial number of trees is 5400.

Hence,

a = 5400

Solving (b): Show that r = 0.96

Using

N = ar^t

When a = 5400, t = 1 i.e. the first year and N = 5184

Substitute these values in the above expression

5184 = 5400 * r¹

5184 = 5400 * r

5184 = 5400r

Solve for r

r = 5184/5400

r = 0.96

Solving (c): Show that the trees has decreased by over 65% in 2040

First, we need to calculate number of years (t) in 2040

t = 2040 - 2014

t = 26

Substitute 26 for t, 5400 for a and 0.96 for r in N = ar^t to get the number of trees left

N = 5400 * 0.96^26

N = 1868.29658019

N = 1868 (approximated)

Next, we calculate the percentage change as thus:

%Change = (Final - Initial)/Initial * 100%

Where the initial number of trees =5400 and final = 1868

%Change = (1868 - 5400)/5400 * 100%

%Change = -3532/5400 * 100%

%Change = -3532%/54

%Change = -65.4%

The negative sign indicates a decrements or reduction.

Hence, percentage decrement = 65.4% and this is over 65%

In a clinical trial of oxycodone, 16 subjects experience headaches among the 227 subjects treated with oxycodone. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of treated subjects who experience headaches. Provide both probabilistic and practical interpretations. (Hint: this is proportion problem).

Answers

Answer:

95% Confidence Interval = (0.037, 0.104)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for Confidence Interval if a proportion is:

p ± z × √p(1 - p)/n

z = z score of a 95% confidence interval = 1.96

p = proportion = x/n

x = 16, n = 227

p = 16/227

p = 0.0704845815

≈ 0.0705

Confidence Interval

= 0.0705 ± 1.96 × √0.0705(1 - 0.0705)/227

= 0.0705 ± 1.96 × √0.0002886773

= 0.0705 ± 0.0333013921

Confidence Interval

= 0.0705 - 0.0333013921

= 0.0371986079

≈ 0.037

= 0.0705 + 0.0333013921

= 0.1038013921

≈ 0.104

Hence, 95% Confidence Interval = (0.037, 0.104)

2d = 8f
18 - 4f = 2d

Answers

Answer:

Alright so,

18-4f=2d, if we know that 2d=8f that would mean 18 must equal 12f for this to be true. So, that’d mean 18 is 3 times bigger than 4f, if that is the case 4f must equal 6 since 6*3=18. Knowing this we divide 6 by 4 which equals 1.5. So f=1.5, we can rewrite this as 18-6=2d and then solve.

18-6=2d
2d=12
2d/2=12/2
d=6

2d=12
4f=6
8f=12

2d=8f is True.
