A population of bacteria is initially 2,000. After three hours the population is 1,000.

Assuming this rate of decay continues, find the exponential function that represents the size of the bacteria population after t hours. Write your answer in the form f(t)=a(b)t. Report numbers as fractions when necessary, or if using decimals, round to four decimal places.

Answers

Answer 1

The population starts at 2000, so a=2000.

We also know that the population in 3 hours is 1000, so we can setup the equation:

     2000 b^3 = 1000

This gets us:

    b^3 = 1/2

And taking the cube root of both sides gives us:

    b ≈ 0.7937005259841

Rounding that to 4 places, we have:

    f(t) = 2000 (0.7937)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

m<1 = ? // m<2 = ? // m<3 = ? // m<4 = ?

First I want to find the third angle because I see 93 degrees + 3 equals 180, so angle 3 is 87.

Now I find angle 2, because it seems as angle 2 is the same as 49 degrees.

Now for angle 1 and 4, we now that angles in a triangle sum to 180°. So for angle 1 the equation is 180 - (49 + 68), which is 63.

For angle 4 the equation is 180 - (49 + 87), which is 44.

is it linear??? plzzzzz

Answers

Answer:

Not a linear function

Step-by-step explanation:

3xy = 27 is not a linear function.

A linear function is given by f(x) = mx + b (in slope-intercept form), or Ax + By = C (in standard form).   An easier way of understanding the linear function is to envision that the variables (x and y), along with the constant,(y-intercept, are along the same line.  

Isolating y from the left-hand side:

3xy = 27  

On the left-hand side of the equation: 3xy involves a multiplication operation. Thus, 3xy  is the same as expressing it as  3·x·y.  

We cannot simply add or subtract x or y to isolate either one of the variables.  The proper mathematical operation to do so is by division.

Hence, we must divide both sides by 3x to isolate y:

[tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{\frac{3xy}{3x}\:=\:\frac{27}{3x}}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{y\:=\:\frac{9}{x}}[/tex]   ⇒ This is a reciprocal function, also known as an inverse function, where it is undefined when x = 0.  The graph of an inverse function is a hyperbola.      

Attached is the graph of  [tex]\displaystyle\mathsf{y\:=\:\frac{9}{x}}[/tex]  to show why it is not considered as a linear function. A linear function will show a straight line.

Answers

Answer: 1.25 times as far

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem requires you to find something called the unit rate.

Getting the unit rate for Car A is very simple, and can be found to be 25mi/gal.

To find the unit rate for Car B, simply look at the second row.  Because the car can go 60 miles on 3 gallons of gas, divide both these numbers by 3 to get 20mi/gal.

Then, simply multiply both of these numbers by 11 to get 25 * 11 = 275, and 20 * 11 = 220.

Then, by doing 275/220, you get your answer: 1.25.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Give brainliest please :)

0.00359, when rounded to nearest thousandth results in 0.0036.

What is Rounding Off?

Rounding off means a number is made simpler by keeping its value intact but closer to the next number. It is done for whole numbers, and for decimals at various places of hundreds, tens, tenths, etc. Rounding off numbers is done to preserve the significant figures.

Given, value to be rounded is : 0.00359

Since, 1 ten thousands = 10000 (104). So, 1 ten thousandth = 0.0001 (10-4)

Therefore, while rounding to nearest ten thousandth, we round the fractional part(or decimal part) upto 4 digits.

Here, In 0.00359, the digit after ten thousandth place is 9, which is (equal to or greater) than 5. So, 5 can be rounded to 6.

Hence, finally, 0.00359, when rounded to nearest thousandth results in 0.0036
