Answers

Answer 1

Using an exponential function, it is found that the population of bacteria in the culture after 13 hours is of 1,491,747.

An exponential function, with a doubling time of d, after t hours, is given by:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(2)^{\frac{t}{d}}[/tex]

In which A(0) is the initial amount.

In this problem:

The doubling time is of 3 hours, hence [tex]d = 3[/tex].The initial population is of 74000 bacteria, hence [tex]A(0) = 74000[/tex].

Then:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(2)^{\frac{t}{d}}[/tex]

[tex]A(t) = 74000(2)^{\frac{t}{3}}[/tex]

After 13 hours:

[tex]A(13) = 74000(2)^{\frac{13}{3}} = 1491747[/tex]

The population of bacteria in the culture after 13 hours is of 1,491,747.

Answer:

  angles: 150°, 108°, 90°, 12°

Step-by-step explanation:

The size of each sector of a pie chart is proportional to the size of the data item being represented. Here, the total of all frequency numbers is ...

  25 +18 +15 +2 = 60

These 60 are represented in the chart by 360°, so each unit of frequency is represented by 360°/60 = 6°.

The 25 destinations in France are represented by a sector that is ...

  25 × 6° = 150°

The 18 destinations in Spain are represented by a sector that is ...

  18 × 6° = 108°

The 15 destinations in Greece are represented by a sector that is ...

  15 × 6° = 90°

The remaining (Other) destinations are represented by the remaining part of the circle:

  2 × 6° = 12°

You can draw the sector dividers in the circle using a protractor or geometry application, or you can let a spreadsheet draw the entire pie chart for you.

A fruit company delivers its fruit in two types of boxes: large and small. A delivery of 8 large boxes and 4 small boxes has a total weight of 177 kilograms. A
delivery of 3 large boxes and 2 small boxes has a total weight of 73 kilograms. How much does each type of box weigh?

1. Weight of each large box ____ kilograms

2. Weight of each small box ____ kilograms

Answers

Answer:

Answer:

x = the wight of the large box

y = the weight of the small box

A delivery of 3 large boxes and 2 small boxes has a total weight of 73 kilograms.

3x + 2y = 73

A delivery of 8 large boxes and 4 small boxes has a total weight of 177 kilograms.

8x + 4y = 177

by solving the system of equations

3x + 2y = 73

8x + 4y = 177

we find

x = 15.5 kg

y = 13.25 kg

the large box weights 15.5 kg.

the small box weights 13.25 kg.

What is the domain???????

Answers

Answer:

H

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain is the values of x in a function.

The graph appears to extend infinitely to the right and left going from the x value 1

From what it looks like the two lines never touch or go over the x value 1 and extend infinitely to the right and left meaning that the values of x of the function are all real numbers but x = 1.

This can be written as {x | x ≠ 1 }

The answer is H

So, from what I can tell, I think the domain is H. Domain is the range of all X values, so you can see that the graph doesn’t include, or avoids the x value(s) of positive one. So I believe, based on your answer, it is option H

#1.---60%   #2.---$12.60 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

#1. Since It was originally $50 you have 50% already, so what I did was I multiplied 50 by 2. this got me 100 which is a simpler way to calculate by. 50 to 80 dollars is a $30 change, so multiply that by 2 and you get 60. 60 will be your percent of change. You can double check this by multiplying 50 by .60, the answer will be 30 and 50+30=80

#2 Since Tyler starts off with $12 per hour with a 5% increase you will need to multiply 12*.05 this will get you the answer of 0.6 you then need to add $12, since that was his original payment. 12+0.6=12.60, so his final payment would by $12.60 per hour

Two cars A and B 250 km apart are traveling towards each other on the same road. Car A travels at 55 km/h
while car B travels at 70 km/h.
(a) When will they meet on the road?
(b) Find the distance each car travels before they meet.

Answers

Answer:

At 2 hours they will meet on the road

Car A:  110 km;  Car B:  140 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the total distance is 250 km, we know that when the sum of the miles driven by each car adds to 250, they will meet.

Let x be the time, in hours.

              Miles Travelled

Car A             (55km/h)x

Car B             (70 km/h)x

(55km/h)x +  (70 km/h)x = 250

55x + 70x = 250

125x = 250

x = 2 hours  At 2 hours they will meet on the road

              Distance Travelled

Car A             (55km/h)2 =  110 km

The complete and simplified answer to the question what is 6/8 of 5 is:  

3 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

You probably know that the number above the fraction line is called the numerator and the number below it is called the denominator. To work out the fraction of any number, we first need to convert that whole number into a fraction as well.

Here's a little tip for you. Any number can be converted to fraction if you use 1 as the denominator: 5/1

So now that we've converted 5 into a fraction, to work out the answer, we put the fraction 6/8 side by side with our new fraction, 5/1 so that we can multiply those two fractions.

That's right, all you need to do is convert the whole number to a fraction and then multiply the numerators and denominators. Let's take a look:

 

6 x 5/ 8 x 1  =  30 /8

In this case, our new fraction can actually be simplified down further. To do that, we need to find the greatest common factor of both numbers.

You can use our handy GCF calculator to work this out yourself if you want to. We already did that, and the GCF of 30 and 8 is 2.

We can now divide both the new numerator and the denominator by 2 to simplify this fraction down to its lowest terms.

30/2 = 15

8/2 = 4

When we put that together, we can see that our complete answer is:  

15/ 4

 

If you now simplifiy the COMPLETE anwser is:

3 3/4

Reflection Symmetry-

Line symmetry is also called as the reflection symmetry. If, at least one line that divides a figure into two halves such that one-half is the mirror image of the other half, exists, then the figure is said to be in reflection symmetry.

Analyzing all the 4 figures, it can be deduced that only 1st and 2nd figures have one symmetry line XX, as shown in the attachments.

3rd and 4th figures do not have any axisymmetric lines, so they are not in reflection symmetry.
