Ben is monitoring a colony of bacteria. Initially, the colony consists of 159 bacteria. The following function represents the number of bacteria in the colony after x hours.



Which expression approximately represents the number of hours, x, it takes for the number of bacteria in the colony to reach 168?

Answer:

[tex]A=P (1 + \frac{r}n)} ^{nt}[/tex]

A = 500(1 + .028/1)^ (3*1)

$543.19

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is all of my work from answering the question. I’ll put pictures too, my handwriting is pretty good so it should be easy to see. ;)

Part A-

1) 4x-3 = -2x+9

2) 4x+2x -3 = -2x+2x + 9

3) 6x -3 = 9

4) 6x -3+3 = 9+3

5) 6x = 12

6) 6x/6 = 12/6

7) x = 2

Part B-

1) y=4x-3

2) y=4(2)-3

3) y=8-3

4) y= 5

Therefore, x = 2 and y = 5.

I used substitution in Part B. 4x and x = 2.

I really hope this is right and helps, good luck! ;)

Answer:

slope = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, 5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, - 5)

m = [tex]\frac{-5-5}{3-(-2)}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-10}{3+2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-10}{5}[/tex] = - 2

The Pythagoras theorem : a² + b² = c²

where a = length

b = base

c =  hypotenuse

√110² + 110²

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:Let's solve for c.

x2+10x+c=−3+c

Step 1: Add -c to both sides.

x2+c+10x+−c=c−3+−c

x2+10x=−3

Step 2: Add -x^2 to both sides.

x2+10x+−x2=−3+−x2

10x=−x2−3

Step 3: Add -10x to both sides.

10x+−10x=−x2−3+−10x

0=−x2−10x−3

Step 4: Divide both sides by 0.

0

0

Answer:

a) there are 6 possible outcomes. b) the probability of getting 3 heads would be 3/6. c) the probability of getting 1 head is 1/6.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

center at the origin means

x^2 + y^2 = r^2

9^2 + (-2)^2 = 81+4 = 85, so the circle is

x^2 + y^2 = 85

center at (0,-2) means

x^2 + (y+2)^2 = r^2

(-6)^2 + (0+2)^2 = 36+4 = 40

x^2 + (y+2)^2 = 40

The equation of circle which is centered at the origin that passes through (9,-2) is,

⇒ x² + y² = 85

The circle is a closed two dimensional figure , in which the set of all points is equidistance from the center.

We have to given that;

Circle o centered at the origin that passes through (9,-2).

Now, We can find the radius of circle as;

Radius of circle is distance between (0, 0) and point (9, - 2).

⇒ r = √ (- 2 - 0)² + (9 - 0)²

⇒ r = √4 + 81

⇒ r = √85

Thus, The equation of circle which is centered at the origin that passes through (9,-2) is,

⇒ x² + y² = (√85)²

⇒ x² + y² = 85

Answer:

[tex]h^-^1(x)=0.5x+1.5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Finding the inverse of a function is similar to solving for the complete opposite of a function. An easy trick to do so is the think of the resulting value (h(x)) as another variable. Solve the equation for (x) in terms of (h(x)). Finally, switch the variable and evalutator so that one has the funciton in inverse function notation.

[tex]h(x) = 2x - \frac{4}{3}[/tex]

Inverse operations,

[tex]h(x)=2x-\frac{4}{3}\\\\h(x)+\frac{4}{3}=2x\\\\\frac{h(x)+\frac{3}{4}}{2}=x[/tex]

Simplify,

[tex]0.5(h(x))+1.5=x[/tex]

Write in inverse function notation,

[tex]h^-^1(x)=0.5x+1.5[/tex]

Mikes pet shop: add the ratio: 7+ 3 = 10

Divide total animals by the sum:

300/10 = 30

The ratio of cats is 7

Total cats = 30 x 7 =210

Do the same for Pets R Us:

Ratio: 6 + 4 = 10

150/10 = 15

Cats = 15 x 6 = 90

Total cats = 210 + 90 =300

Total animals = 300 + 150 = 450

Fraction that are cats = 300/450 = 2/3

2/3 of the animals are cats

Answer:

[tex]4,060[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\binom{30}{3}=\boxed{4060}[/tex]

There are 30 teachers for the principal to choose from initially. After the principal chooses one, there will be 29, 28, 27, and so on.

Since the principal is only choosing 3, there are [tex]30\cdot 29\cdot 28=24,360[/tex] permutations. However, the order of which the principal chooses the teachers does not matter. In other words, without loss of generality, let the name of three of the teachers be Adam, Bernie, and Carla. Regardless of whether the principal chooses Adam then Bernie then Carla or Carla then Adam then Bernie, etcetera, the same three teachers are still being chosen.

Thus, we must divide by the number of ways you can rearrange three distinct teachers, which is [tex]3![/tex].

Therefore, the desired answer is [tex]\frac{24360}{3!}=\frac{24360}{6}=\boxed{4,060}[/tex]

Answer:

x=9

Step-by-step explanation:

so the angles of a triangle add up to 180 and since it shows two angles of 60 which makes 120, you have 60 more degrees which means A has to be 60 degrees. so if all of the angles are the same then the side lengths are the same so since it already shows one side =9 then x=9

Answer:

x=9

Step-by-step explanation:

missing angle + 60 + 60=180 degree (sum of interior angles of a triangle

missing angle + 120 =180

missing angle =180 -120

missing angle =60 degree

since all angles are 60 degree it is an equilateral triangle and all sides of a equailateral triangle are equal .So, x is also 9
