A virus takes 13 days to double its original population (A=2A_0). How long will it take to triple its population? Round to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

20.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

A virus takes approximately 20.6 days to triple its original population.

What is the formula of exponential growth?

"[tex]f(x)=ab^x[/tex],

where a is the initial value

b is the growth rate

x is time. "

For given question,

Suppose the function for the population growth is,

[tex]A(t)=A_0\times b^t[/tex]                         .........(1)

For t = 13, the population growth of virus would be,

[tex]\Rightarrow A(13)=A_0\times b^{13}[/tex]                  ..........(2)

But we have been given that a virus takes 13 days to double its original population.

[tex]\Rightarrow A(13)=2\times A_0[/tex]                      .........(3)

From (2) and (3),

[tex]\Rightarrow A_0\times b^{13}=2\times A_0\\\\\Rightarrow b^{13}=2\\\\\Rightarrow b=1.0548[/tex]

We need to find the number of days  to triple its original population

[tex]\Rightarrow A(t)=3\times A_0[/tex]                   ...........(4)

From (1) and (4),

[tex]\Rightarrow A_0\times b^t=A_0 \times 3\\\\\Rightarrow (1.0548)^t=3\\\\\Rightarrow t=20.6[/tex]

Therefore, a virus takes approximately 20.6 days to triple its original population

directions - solve the liner system. enter your answer as an ordered pair. 2x + 3y = 31 y = x + 7

Answers

(1) 2x + 3y = 31 y

(2) 2x + 3y = x + 7

(3) 31y = x + 7

(3) x = 31y - 7

(2) 2(31y - 7) + 3y = 31y - 7 + 7 ; 62y - 14 + 3y = 31y ; 34y = 14 ; y = 14/34 ; y = 7/17

(3) x = 31y - 7 ; x = 31*(7/17) - 7 ; x = (217 - 119)/17 = 98/17

x = 98/17 ≈ 5.76

Pls tell me how to do this

Answers

Answer:

45

Step-by-step explanation:

jffjgnjfgnjgjfgjs

Answer:

90%

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We assume, that the number 5400 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.

2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.

3. If 100% equals 5400, so we can write it down as 100%=5400.

4. We know, that x% equals 6000 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=6000.

5. Now we have two simple equations:

1) 100%=5400

2) x%=6000

where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:

100%/x%=5400/6000

6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 6000 is what percent of 5400

Rudy invested $2460 in a money market account for 3 and 1/2 years. He earned $452 in simple interest. Which best represents the annual interest rate?
A. 3 and 3/5 percent
B. 5 and 1/4 percent
C. 5 and 3/4 percent
D. 6 and 2/5 percent

Answers

Answer:

B. 5 and 1/4 percent

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given

principal= $2460

time= 3 and 1/2 years= 3.5 years

SI= $452

Required

The rate

Step two:

we know that

SI= PRT/100

substituting our data we have

452= 2460*R*3.5/100

452=8610R/100

cross multiply

452*100= 8610R

divide both sides by 8610

45200/8610= R

R= 5.25%

R= 5 and 1/4 percent

A baker has 134 cup of sprinkles to spread on cupcakes. Each cupcake needs 18 cup of sprinkles. How many cupcakes can the baker sprinkle?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Cupcakes = 7[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Total\ Sprinkles = 134[/tex]

[tex]Sprinkle\ per\ cupcake = 18[/tex]

Required

Determine the number of cupcakes

To do this, we simply divide the total cups of sprinkle by the sprinkles per cupcake

[tex]Cupcakes = \frac{Total\ Sprinkles}{Sprinkle\ Per\ Cupcake}[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]Cupcakes = \frac{134}{18}[/tex]

[tex]Cupcakes = 7.44[/tex]

[tex]Cupcakes = 7[/tex] approximated

Hence, 7 cupcakes are needed

Stage 2: The car travels 44 miles at the same average speed as stage 1
Work out the time for stage 2
Give your answer in minutes.

Answers

Answer:

48 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

2h = 110 miles

1h = 110 ÷ 2

    = 55 miles

Therefore, the speed of the entire journey is 55 miles per hour.

1h = 60 minutes

55 miles = 1h

55 miles = 60 minutes

44 miles = [tex]\frac{44}{55}[/tex] × 60 minutes

Answer:

The question [tex]3\frac{1}{2}\div\frac{1}{3}[/tex] after change the mixed number to improper & using KCF will become : [tex]\mathbf{=\frac{7}{2}\times \frac{3}{1}}[/tex]

Option B is correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to change the mixed number to improper & use KCF to rewrite the question.

The expression is: [tex]3\frac{1}{2}\div\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

First converting mixed fraction into improper fraction

Multiply whole number with the denominator i,e (3*2=6) now add the numerator i.e (6+1) = 7/2

Solving:

[tex]3\frac{1}{2}\div\frac{1}{3}\\=\frac{7}{2}\div\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Using KCF

KCF stands fro Keep it, Change it, Flip it.

It is used when division sign is converted to multiplication the term (1/3) is reversed to (3/1)

So, our expression will be

[tex]=\frac{7}{2}\times \frac{3}{1}[/tex]

So, The question [tex]3\frac{1}{2}\div\frac{1}{3}[/tex] after change the mixed number to improper & using KCF will become : [tex]\mathbf{=\frac{7}{2}\times \frac{3}{1}}[/tex]

Option B is correct option.
