Suppose that a population of bacteria triples every hour and starts with 700 bacteria.
(a) Find an expression for the number n of bacteria after t hours.
(b) Estimate the rate of growth of the bacteria population after 1.5 hours.
Answer:
(a) An expression for the number n of bacteria after t hours is n(t)=700*[tex]3^{t}[/tex]
(b) The rate of growth of the bacteria population after 1.5 hours is 3,996 number of bacteria per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
An exponential function is one in which the independent variable x appears in the exponent and has a constant a as its base. Its expression is:
f(x)=aˣ
being a real positive.
When 0 <a <1, then the exponential function is a decreasing function and when a> 1, it is an increasing function.
An exponential function allows us to refer to phenomena that grow faster and faster, such as population growth.
In that case, the formula used to model the growth of a population is given by:
P(t)=P0*[tex]a^{t}[/tex]
where the function P (t) grows exponentially and represents the quantity of the population at time t; a represents the constant of growth or decrease and P0 represents the initial population at time zero.
In this case:
P0=700a=3Replacing, you get:
P(t)=700*[tex]3^{t}[/tex]
An expression for the number n of bacteria after t hours is n(t)=700*[tex]3^{t}[/tex]
The derivative of this function P (t) is:
n'(t)=700*ln(3)*[tex]3^{t}[/tex]
and reflects the growth rate of the bacteria population.
So, the rate of growth of the bacteria population after 1.5 hours is:
n(1.5)=700*ln(3)*[tex]3^{1.5}[/tex]
Solving, you get:
n(1.5)≅ 3,996
The rate of growth of the bacteria population after 1.5 hours is 3,996 number of bacteria per hour.

if quadrilateral PQRS is an isoceles trapezoid if RP=12 then SQ= ?
The question is missing parts. Here is the complete question.
Quadrilateral PQRS (shown below) is an isosceles trapezoid. If RP = 12, then SQ = ?
Answer: SQ = 12
Step-by-step explanation: A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with two opposite parallel sides, called bases. The trapezoid is an isosceles trapezoid when the non-parallel sides have the same length.
One property of isosceles trapezoid is that its diagonals are congruent, i.e., have the same length.
In the picture, segment RP is one of the trapezoid's diagonal. It is asking the measure of SQ, which is the other diagonal. So:
SQ = RP
SQ = 12
Segment SQ of isosceles trapezoid PQRS is 12 units.
Answer:
if quadrilateral PQRS is an isosceles trapezoid if RP=12 then SQ= 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Select all the statements that are true for the graph shown.

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.
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

A cart weighing 60 lb is placed on a ramp inclined at 15° to the horizontal. The cart is held in place by a rope inclined at 60° to the horizontal, as shown in the figure. Find the force that the rope must exert on the cart to keep it from rolling down the ramp. (Round your answer to one decimal place in lbs.)
I assume you ignore friction. The cart is held in equilibrium, so the net force on the cart is zero.
There are 3 forces acting on the cart:
• weight (magnitude w, pointing down)
• normal force (mag. n, pointing perpendicular to the ramp)
• tension in the rope (mag. t, pointing 60º from the horizontal, or equivalently 60º - 15º = 45º from the parallel direction)
Split up the forces into horizontal and vertical components. We have
• horizontal:
t cos(60º) + n cos(105º) = 0
• vertical:
n sin(105º) + (-w) = 0
(the normal force has a direction of 105º from the horizontal because it's perpendicular to the ramp, so it forms an angle of 90º with the ramp, plus the 15º inclination of the ramp itself)
We're given that w = 60 lb, so
n sin(105º) = 60 lb
n ≈ 62.1 lb
Solve for t :
t cos(60º) = -n cos(105º)
t = -n cos(105º)/cos(60º)
t ≈ 32.2 lb
Which term describes the figure?
Answer:
B. Perpendicular Lines
Step-by-step explanation:
Perpendicular Lines are lines that cross over each other and make a right angle (90°).

After collecting the data, Christopher finds that the total snowfall per year in Reamstown is normally distributed with mean 94 inches and standard deviation 14 inches. What is the probability that, in a randomly selected year, the snowfall was greater than 52 inches?
Answer:
0.9987
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Z score formula
z = (x-μ)/σ, where
x is the raw score = 52 inches
μ is the population mean = 94 inches
σ is the population standard deviation = 14 inches
z = 52 - 94/14
z =-3
Probability value from Z-Table:
P(x<52) = 0.0013499
P(x>52) = 1 - P(x<52)
P(x>52) = 1 - 0.0013499
= 0.99865
Therefore, the probability that, in a randomly selected year, the snowfall was greater than 52 inches is approximately 0.9987

A thumbtack that is tossed can land point up or point down. The probability of a tack landing point up is 0.2. A simulation was conducted in which a trial consisted of tossing 5 thumbtacks and recording the number of thumbtacks that land point up. Many trials of the simulation were conducted and the results are shown in the histogram.
Based on the results of the simulation, which of the following is closest to the probability that at least 2 thumbtacks land pointing up when 5 thumbtacks are tossed?
A 0.09
B 0.19
C 0.28
D 0.72
E 0.91
Answer:
Option C: 0.28
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a binomial probability distribution problem.
Now, we want to find the probability that at least 2 thumbtacks land pointing up when 5 thumbtacks are tossed. This is written as;
P(X ≥ 2) = P(2) + P(3) + P(4) + P(5)
From the histogram;
P(5) = 0.02
P(4) = 0.02
P(3) = 0.05
P(2) = 0.19
Thus;
P(X ≥ 2) = 0.19 + 0.05 + 0.02 + 0.02
P(X ≥ 2) = 0.28
From the histogram, it is found that there is a 0.28 = 28% probability that at least 2 thumbtacks land pointing up when 5 thumbtacks are tossed, option C.
------------------
The probabilities given by the histogram are:
[tex]P(X = 0) = 0.33[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = 0.39[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = 0.19[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 3) = 0.05[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 4) = 0.02[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 5) = 0.02[/tex]
The probability of at least 2 up is:
[tex]P(X \geq 2) = P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) = 0.019 + 0.05 + 0.02 + 0.02 = 0.28[/tex]
0.28 = 28% probability that at least 2 thumbtacks land pointing up when 5 thumbtacks are tossed, option C.

An engineer is building a bridge that should be able to hold a maximum weight of 1 ton. He builds a model of the bridge that is exactly 4 times smaller than the actual bridge. 16 ounces = 1 pound. 2,000 pounds = 1 ton. If a test of the model shows that it holds 8,000 ounces, will the bridge hold 1 ton?
fill in thw blanks please extra points:)
Answer:
First blank- 32000 ounces
Second blank- 2000 pounds
Yes the bridge can hold 1 ton.
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the scale of the model to the real bridge = 1:4
The test model shows the model can take 8000 ounces
The real bridge will therefore take 8000 x 4 = 32000 ounces
16 ounces = 1 pound
32000 ounces = x pounds
==> = 32000/16 = 2000 pounds
2000 pounds = 1 ton
therefore the bridge holds 1 ton
Answer:
First blank- 32000 ounces
Second blank- 2000 pounds
Yes the bridge can hold 1 ton.
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the scale of the model to the real bridge = 1:4
The test model shows the model can take 8000 ounces
The real bridge will therefore take 8000 x 4 = 32000 ounces
16 ounces = 1 pound
32000 ounces = x pounds
==> = 32000/16 = 2000 pounds
2000 pounds = 1 ton
therefore the bridge holds 1 ton
