A bacterial colony starts with 120 cells and quadruples in size each day. Write an equation that relates the population of cells in this colony (P) at the start of each day and the number of days (d). Find the population on day 8.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

P = 120*([tex]2^{2d-2}[/tex])P(8) = 1, 966, 080

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the population quadruples each day, the population for the subsequent day would be 4*(population of the previous day).

Thus, the evolution of the population value takes the form of a geometric progression, with a common ratio, r = 4

The n-th term of a geometric progression is given by:

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = [tex]ar^{n-1}[/tex]             (1)

Where a is the 1st term of the progression.

From (1), our population would generally take the form:

[tex]P_{d}[/tex] = [tex]P_0r^{d-1}[/tex]             (2)

In this case, the initial value (1st term) [tex]P_{0}[/tex] = 120.

So putting r and  [tex]P_{0}[/tex] into  (2):

P(d) = 120*([tex]4^{d-1}[/tex])

Noting that 4  = 2²:

P(d) = 120*([tex]2^{2(d-1)}[/tex])

P(d) = 120*([tex]2^{2d-2}[/tex])

FOR d = 8:

P(d) = 120*([tex]2^{2d-2}[/tex])

becomes:

P(8) = 120*([tex]2^{2(8)-2}[/tex])

P(8) = 120*([tex]2^{16-2}[/tex])

P(8) = 120*([tex]2^{14}[/tex])

P(8) = 120*(16,384)

P(8) = 1, 966, 080

A person is selected at random.
What is the probability that this person doesn't use any facility?

Answers

Probability that the person selected at random from the sport centre of 125 people is a fraction of 1/4 or 0.25.

Probability of an event

The probability of an event is the fraction of the required number of outcome divided by the number of possible outcomes.

We shall determine the answer to the question as follows;

People in the sport centre = 125

People who used the 3 facilities = 6

People who accessed only gym = 59 - (6 + 11 + 19) = 26

People who accessed only track event = 55 - (6 + 11 + 24) = 14

People who accessed only swimming pool event = 70 - (6 + 19 + 24) = 21

People who accessed only gym and swimming pool events = 29 - 6 = 19

People who accessed only gym and track events = 17 - 6 = 11

People who accessed only swimming pool and track events = 30 - 6 = 24

Total number of people who accessed at least any one of the facilities = 121

The number of people who did not access any of the facility = 125 - 121 = 4, which is the number of possible outcomes for our required outcome.

Therefore, the probability that the person selected doesn't use any facility = 1/4

Sean weighs 10 lb more than twice Brad’s weight. If Brad gains 10 lb, together they will weigh 230 lb. How much does each weight now?

Answers

Using equations the weight of both Sean and Brad is 156 lbs and 73 lbs.

What do we mean by equations?The equals sign is a symbol used in mathematical formulas to denote the equality of two expressions.An equation is a mathematical statement that contains the symbol "equal to" between two expressions with identical values.as in 3x + 5 = 15, for example.There are many different types of equations, including linear, quadratic, cubic, and others.The three primary forms of linear equations are point-slope, standard, and slope-intercept.

So, the weight of Sean and Brad.

Let, Brad, be 'x'.Then Sean be '2x + 10'

So, the equation will become:

x + 2x + 10 = 230

Now, solve this equation for 'x' as follows:

x + 2x + 10 = 2303x = 230 - 103x = 220x = 220/3x = 73.33

Rounding off: 73 lbs

Then,

Brad weights ⇒ 73 lbsSean weights ⇒ 2(73) + 10 = 156 lbs

Therefore, using equations the weight of both Sean and Brad is 156 lbs and 73 lbs.

The variables we need to use in the question are defined. We will call the price of a knife as [tex]k[/tex] and the price of a spoon as [tex]s[/tex].

The total price of [tex]12[/tex] spoons and [tex]16[/tex] knives is then given. Let's write knives instead of [tex]4[/tex] spoons.

[tex]12s+16k=105.64[/tex][tex]3k+16k=105.64[/tex][tex]k=5.56[/tex] per knife.
Answer:  5.56 pounds

===================================================

Explanation:

k = cost of one knife

s = cost of one spoon

costs are in pounds

12s = cost of 12 spoons

16k = cost of 16 knives

12s+16k = 105.64 pounds is the total cost

We can replace k with 4s because of the phrasing "a knife is 4 times the cost of a spoon". Whatever s might be, quadruple it and it leads us to the value of k.

So,

12s+16k = 105.64

12s+16(4s) = 105.64

12s+64s = 105.64

76s = 105.64

s = 105.64/76

s = 1.39 pounds is the cost of one spoon

k = 4s = 4*1.39 = 5.56 pounds is the cost of one knife

----------------------

Check:

1 spoon = 1.39 pounds

12 spoons = 12*1.39 = 16.68 pounds

1 knife = 5.56 pounds

16 knives = 16*5.56 = 88.96 pounds

12 spoons + 16 knives = 16.68+88.96 =  105.64 pounds total

This fully verifies the answer.

what is the doubling timefor this population of alligators ?

Answers

Answer:

3 years

Explanations:

The given function representing the population of alligators is:

[tex]P(t)\text{ = (}319)2^{\frac{t}{3}}[/tex]

Find the intial population at t = 0

[tex]\begin{gathered} P(0)\text{ = 319 }\times2^0 \\ P(0)\text{ = 319 }\times\text{ 1} \\ P(0)\text{ }=\text{ 319} \end{gathered}[/tex]

The population will double when:

P(t) = 319 x 2

P(t) = 638

The doubling time is the value of t at which P(t) = 638

[tex]\begin{gathered} P(t)\text{ = 319 }\times2^{\frac{t}{3}} \\ 638\text{ = 319 }\times2^{\frac{t}{3}} \\ \frac{638}{319}=2^{\frac{t}{3}} \\ 2\text{ }=2^{\frac{t}{3}} \\ 2^1=2^{\frac{t}{3}} \\ 1\text{ = }\frac{t}{3} \\ t\text{ = 3} \end{gathered}[/tex]

The population will double after 3 years.

Therefore, the doubling-time for this population of alligators is 3 years

Which is triangle 2

Find the area of ABC with verticles A(4,-3), B(9,-3) and C(10,-11)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The  area of the triangle when the vertices of the triangle are given can be calculated by the following formula:

Area of triangle = 0.5 * |Ax(By - Cy) + Bx(Ay - Cy) + Cx(Ay - By)|  where the vertices are A(Ax, Ay), B(Bx, By), C(Cx, Cy)

Now, we have been given the values of vertices as A(4, -3) B(9,-3) , and C(10, −11)

Therefore,

By applying the formula and substituting the given values, we get

Area = 0.5 * |4 * (-3 + 11) + 9 * (-3 + 11) + 10 * (-3 - 3)|

Area = 0.5 * |44|

Area = 22

Hence, the area of triangle ABC with the given vertices is 22 square units

Answer: m<1 = 146 degrees, m<3 =146 degrees, m<4 = 34 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Since m<2 and m<4 are vertical angles, they will be equal to each other.

By using straight lines, we can easily find out that m<1 = 180-34 = 146

Since m<1 and m<3 are vertical angles, they are equal to each other.

Hope this helped :))

Angle 4: is 34 degrees since angle 2 and angle 4 are vertical angles and congruent (equal)
Angle 1: is 146 degrees. Since angle 4 and angle 1 are linear angles they are equal to 180. So subtract 180 and 34 to get 146
Angle 3: is 146 because angles 1 and 3 are vertical and congruent.

The values of f(2), f(4) and f(-3) for the function, f(x) = [tex]x^{2} -3x-4[/tex], are -6, 0 and 14 respectively.

According to the question,

We have the following information:

f(x) = [tex]x^{2} -3x-4[/tex]

Now, to find the values of each function we will put the values in place of x.

We will find the value of f(2) by putting 2 in place of x.

f(2) = [tex](2)^{2} -3(2)-4[/tex]

f(2) = 4-6-4

f(2) = -2-4

f(2) = -6

(We know that the numbers with negative sign are added but the result always remains in negative.)

We will find the value of f(4) by putting 4 in place of x:

f(4) = [tex](4)^{2} -3(4)-4[/tex]

f(4) = 16-12-4

f(4) = 4-4

f(4) = 0

Now, we will find the value of f(-3) by putting -3 in place of x:

f(-3) = [tex](-3)^{2} -3(-3)-4[/tex]

f(-3) = 9+9-4

f(-3) = 18-4

f(-3) = 14

Hence, the values of f(2), f(4) and f(-3) are -6, 0 and 14 respectively.

a ladder 10 feet long rests against a vertical wall. let be the angle between the top of the ladder and the wall, and let be the distance from the bottom of the ladder to the wall. if the bottom of the ladder slides away from the wall, how fast does change with respect to when ?

Answers

Rate of change of x with respect to [tex]\alpha[/tex] when [tex]\alpha =\frac{\pi }{3}[/tex] is 5ft/s.

Since the ladder is 10ft long resting against a vertical wall.

Let the angle between the top of the ladder and the wall is [tex]\alpha[/tex] .

And let the distance from the bottom of the ladder to the wall is x.

Thus we need to find the rate of change of x with respect to [tex]\alpha[/tex]  when [tex]\alpha =\frac{\pi }{3}[/tex]

Consider L to be the length of the ladder.

Then, L = 10ft

Thus, we get the relation between the angle and distance x i.e.

x = L [tex]\sin \alpha[/tex]

On differentiating the above equation,

[tex]\frac{dx}{dt} =L \cos \alpha[/tex]

Now after putting the values [tex]\alpha =\frac{\pi }{3}[/tex] in above equation, we get,
