The number of bacteria in a culture is increasing according to the law of exponential growth. The initial population is 240 bacteria, and the population after 12 hours is double the population after 1 hour. How many bacteria will there be after 3 hours

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

240

Step-by-step explanation:

According to law of exponential growth,

[tex]y=y_0e^{kt}[/tex]

Here, [tex]y_0[/tex] denotes the initial amount and k is the rate constant of the equation.

Now, the initial population is 240 bacteria.

Put [tex]y_0=240[/tex]

So,

[tex]y=240e^{kt}[/tex]

The population after 12 hours is double the population after 1 hour.

[tex]y(12)=2y(1)[/tex]

[tex]240e^{12k}=240e^{k} \\e^{12k}=e^{k} \\e^{12k-k}=1\\e^{11k}=1\\11k=log 1=0\\k=0[/tex]

(Formulae used: [tex]\frac{e^x}{e^y}=e^{x-y}\,,\,log 1=0[/tex])

So,

[tex]y=240e^{0}=240\\y=240[/tex]

Therefore,

Number of bacteria after 3 hours = 240

find the original price of a pair of shoes if the sale price is $40 after a 60% discount

Answers

Answer:

Thus, the original price of the pair of shoes was $100.

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentages

After a 60% discount, the sale price is now valued at 100-60=40% of its original price.

If the sale price is $40, then the original price is calculated as

$40 / 40 * 100 = $100

Thus, the original price of the pair of shoes was $100.

Verify applying 60% discount:

$100 - 60*$100/100 =  $40

What are Pythagorean triplets?  

In a right-angled triangle, its sides, such as hypotenuse, and perpendicular, and the base is Pythagorean triplets.

Here,
From the diagram, applying Pythagoras' theorem to the right rectangle,
BC² = 15² - 12²
BC² = 81
BC = 9

Now,
AC = 16
AB + BC = 16
AB + 9 = 16
AB = 7 ft

A denotes an mn matrix. Determine whether the statement is true or false. Justify your answer. The row space of AT is the same as the column space of A.

Answers

Answer: true

Step-by-step explanation:

For an m*n matrix, the column space of A will be a space formed by the lineal combination of all the columns of A.

column space = a1*c1 + a2*c2 + ...

                       

where a1, a2, ... are scalars, and c1 is the vector of column 1.

Then we should write:

Column space = a1*(A₁₁, A₂₁, A₃₁, ...) + a2*(A₁₂, A₂₂, A₃₂, ...) + ...

Now, the transpose is defined as:

[At]₁₃ = A₃₁

Here i used the element with subindex 3 and 1, but is the same for every subindex.

Notice that if A is m*n, then [At] is n*m

Now, the row space of [At] will be, same as before.

Row space = b1*r1 + b2*r2 + ...

Where b1, b2, ... are scalars and the r's are the vector of each row.

                   = b1*( [At]₁₁ , [At]₁₂, [At]₁₃, ...) + b2*([At]₂₁, [At]₂₂, [At]₂₃, ...) + ...

Now we replace each term of the transpose by the associated element in the original matrix.

                   = b1*( A₁₁, A₂₁, A₃₁, ...) + b2*(A₂₁, A₂₂, ...) + ....

If we take:

b1 = a1, b2 = a2, b3 = a3, ...

We will have that the row space of [At] is the same as the column space of A.
