A researcher at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is studying the growth of a certain bacteria. He starts his experiment with 200 bacteria that grow at a rate of 2% per hour. He will check on the bacteria every 7 hours. How many bacteria will he find in 7 hours? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

Answers

The population of the bacteria after 7 hours is 230 bacteria.

An exponential function is given by:

y = abˣ

where y, x are variables, a is the initial value of y and b is the multiplier.

Let y represent the population of bacteria after x hours.

Given that he starts his experiment with 200 bacteria, hence

a = 200

The bacteria grow at a rate of 2% per hour, hence:

b = 100% + 2% = 1.02

The exponential equation becomes:

y = 200(1.02)ˣ

After 7 hours:

y = 200(1.02)⁷ = 230

The population of the bacteria after 7 hours is 230 bacteria.

I believe this is scale factor? SF=new/old. 10/8= a scale factor of 1.25 (the image gets 1.25x bigger). To find x, multiply 5 by 1.25 and subtract the original length of 5 (you subtract this length because x is only the value of the new part of the triangle). X=6.25-5, X=1.25. Try to find y yourself using this scale factor. (Brainliest would be appreciated)

The variables x and y are directly
related. When x=15, y = 6. What is the
value of x when y = -4?

Answers

Answer: When y = -4, x = -10.

Explanation:
The equation for direct variation is y = kx^n, where k is the constant of variation. n is the exponent above the x value, but since this problem doesn’t involve exponents greater than one, we can ignore it.

First, find k.
y = kx
6 = k*15
k = 6/15 or 2/5

Now, we can solve for any x or y input. Let’s find x when y = -4.
y = kx
-4 = 2/5 * x
(to cancel out the fraction, multiply each side of the equation by its reciprocal, 5/2)
x = -4 * 5/2
x = -20/2
x = -10

MODELING REAL LIFE A charm bracelet costs $65, plus $25 for each charm. The equation -25x+y=65 represents the cost y (in dollars) of the bracelet, where x is the number of charms.

a. Graph the equation.

b. How much does a bracelet with three charms cost?

Answers

Answer:

B = $140

Step-by-step explanation:

for part A, the graph is linear line with a Y intercept at (0,65) so this means that if you were to have no charms it would cost 65 dollars, since the y axis represents cost. then for every 1 increment on the x axis (number of charms) the Y value increases by 25 so the slope is [tex]\frac{25}{1}[/tex]

we also can conclude that there is no negative domain since you cannot have negative charms, and the range begins at 65 since you cannot get a bracelet for less money

for part B, y=25x+65

so for three charms, x is represented as 3 so y=25(3) +65 which is 75+65=y= $140

Step-by-step explanation:

41% of 77 is Y

Equation: P% * X = Y

Solving our equation for Y

Y = P% * X

Y = 41% * 77

Converting percent to decimal:

p = 41%/100 = 0.41

Y = 0.41 * 77

Y = 31.57
