A certain population of bacteria has an initial population of 225. the bacteria triples every hour. determine the multiplier that would allow you to predict the population of bacteria after 2 hours.

Answers

Answer 1

Using an exponential function, it is found that the multiplier that would allow you to predict the population of bacteria after 2 hours is of 9.

What is an exponential function?

An exponential function is modeled by:

[tex]y = ab^x[/tex]

In which:

a is the initial value.b is the growth rate.

In this problem, the bacteria triples every hour, hence the rate of change is b = 3, and the equation is:

[tex]y = a(3)^x[/tex]

Hence, after 2 hours:

[tex]y = a(3)^2 = 9a[/tex]

Which means that the multiplier is of 9.

The average vehicle releases 1.39 grams of nox per mile driven. if a vehicle is driven 22,000 miles per year for 15 years, how much nox does that vehicle release

Answers

In 15 years, the average car releases 458.7 kilograms of nox.

How much nox does that vehicle release?

We know that the average vehicle releases 1.39 grams per mile driven.

And, in average, that car drives 22,000 miles per year.

So in a year, a car releases:

M = (22,000)*1.39 g  = 30,580 g = 30.58 kg

In one year, the average car releases around 30.58 kilograms of nox.

Then in 15 years, the car releases 15 times that amount, then we have the product:

T = 15*30.58 kg = 458.7 kg

In 15 years, the average car releases 458.7 kilograms of nox.

What is income?

The amount received by an employee by giving the service or work to any frim will be termed as the income.

Given:

Card A - 1,879.58 ; APR 14%; monthly -43.73

Card B -    861.00 ; APR 10% ; monthly -18.29

5 years x 12 months/yr = 60 months.

Card A = 43.73 x 60 = 2,623.80

Card B = 18.29 x 60 = 1,097.40

Total : 2,623.80 + 1,097.40 = 3,721.20

Lowest APR is 10%. monthly rate: 0.83%

Total Card balance: 1,879.58 + 861 = 2,740.58

A = P * (r(1+r)^n) / [(1+r)^n -1]

A = 2,740.58 * [0.0083 (1.0083)^60] / [(1.0083)^60 - 1]

A = 2,740.58 * 0.014/0.64

A = 2,740.58 * 0.022

A = 60.29 monthly payment.

60.29 x 60 = 3,617.40

$109.95
$114.50
$120.99
$131.25

Answers

The break-even sales price per umbrella if sun cover manufactures the units is $120.99.

How to calculate the sales price?

This can be done by using the formula:

Break even units = Total fixed cost / (Price - Variable cost)

8573 = 675921/(Price - 42.15)

8573(P - 42.15) = 675921

8573P - 361351.95 = 675921

8573P = 675921 + 361351.95

8573P = 1037273.4

P = 1037273.4/8574

P = $120.99

Therefore, the price is $120.99.

Answers

The number of acorns that each animal hid is 48

What is an Equation ?

An equation is formed when two algebraic expressions are equated by an equal sign.

It is asked to calculate the number of acorns that each animal hid.

Total number of acorns hid  =  number of acorns hid per tree * number of trees    

Let   T be the number of trees chipmunk used

For chipmunk:    = 3*T

For squirrel:   = 4*(T-4)

 As both the animals hid same number of acorns.

    3T = 4(T-4)      

    3T = 4T - 16      

      16 = T

Therefore the chipmunk hid 16 * 3 = 48 acorns

and the squirrel hid 4(16-4) = 48 acorns.

Where a is between 1 and 10 and b is an integer representing the number of zeros

So, we have:

8700 = 87 * 10^2

Express 87 as 8.7 * 10

8700 = 8.7 * 10* 10^2

For the function f(x) = 3x + 7, find the following:
a) f(2)=
c) f(x) = 8
b) f(-3) =
d) f(x) = 10

Answers

Answer:

a) 13

b) 1/3

c) -2

d) 1

Step-by-step explanation:

This is quite simple if you look at it from a different perspective. Imagine that when it says "f(2)" That you are plugging the number 2 in for every x on the right side of the equation:

For example:

f(x) = 3x + 7

f(2) = 3(2) + 7

f(2) = 6 + 7

f(2) = 13

________

f(-3) = 3x + 7

f(-3) = 3(-3) + 7

f(-3) = -9 + 7

f(-3) = 7 - 9 (This is just for those that hate negative values. You can rearrange the values as long as their sign is the same when you do move them. Ex: -14 + 6 - 4 + 9 == 9 + 6 - 14 - 4. I hope that makes sense.

f(-3) = -2

The other way is quite simple as well, if you look at it from a different perspective. Imagine that when it says "f(x) = 8" that you are changing the f(x) to the number 8:

For example:

f(x) = 8

f(x) = 3x + 7

8 = 3x + 7

8 - 7 = 3x

1 = 3x

x = 1/3

f(x)= 10

f(x) = 3x + 7

10 = 3x + 7

10 - 7 = 3x

3 = 3x

3/3 = x

1 = x

I hope this helps!

Answer:

a) 13
b) 1/3
c) -2
d) 1

Step-by-Step Explanation:

=> f(x) = 3x + 7

a) f(2)

Substitute the Value of ‘x’ :-

= 3x + 7
= 3(2) + 7
= 6 + 7
=> 13

Hence, f(2) = 13

b) f(x) = 8

Equate the Function to 8 :-

3x + 7 = 8
3x = 8 - 7
3x = 1
=> x = 1/3

Hence, x = 1/3

c) f(-3)

Substitute the Value of ‘x’ :-

= 3x + 7
= 3(-3) + 7
= -9 + 7
=> -2

Hence, f(-3) = -2

d) f(x) = 10

Equate the Function to 10 :-

3x + 7 = 10
3x = 10 - 7
3x = 3
=> x = 3/3 = 1

Hence, x = 1

2(3x - 5) = 74 ( divide both sides by 2 )

3x - 5 = 37 ( add 5 to both sides )

3x = 42 ( divide both sides by 3 )

Subtract 2x from both sides :

16 = x - 12

Now we add 12 to both sides :

28 = x

Angle 3x-12 and y add up to 180 as they are on a straight line :

3x-12 + y = 180

Substitute x and solve for y :
