A scientist counts 35 bacteria present in a culture and finds that the number of bacteria triples each hour. The function y = 35 • 3x models the number of bacteria after x hours. Estimate when there will be about 550 bacteria in the culture.
I think it's about 2.5 hours.
Other answer options:
about 5.5 hours
about 4.5 hours
about 3.5 hours

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer to your question is about 5.5 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is y = 35(3x)

Data

# of bacteria = 550 = y

time = ? h

    Then    550 = 35(3x)                         substitution

                 550 = 105x                           simplifying

                x = 5.23 h.

#1: The theoretical yield of a reaction is 5.00 moles of potassium permanganate (KMnO4). If the reaction actually produces 695.2 g KMnO4, what is the percent yield of the reaction?

A. 78%

B. 83%

C. 88%

D. 120%

Answers

Final answer:

To calculate the percent yield, the actual yield in moles of potassium permanganate was found to be 4.40 moles from 695.2 g, using the molar mass of KMnO4. Then, the percent yield was calculated using the theoretical yield of 5.00 moles, resulting in 88%.

Therefore, the correct answer is C. 88%

Explanation:

To calculate the percent yield of the reaction, we first need to know the moles of potassium permanganate (KMnO4) that correspond to 695.2 g. We use the molar mass of KMnO4 which is 158.04 g/mol to convert grams to moles.

Actual yield in moles = mass (g) / molar mass (g/mol) = 695.2 g / 158.04 g/mol = 4.40 moles of KMnO4

Now, with the theoretical yield of 5.00 moles, we can find the percent yield using the formula:

Percent yield = (actual yield / theoretical yield) × 100%

Percent yield = (4.40 moles / 5.00 moles) × 100% = 88%

Therefore, the correct answer is C. 88%

List the following numbers in order from least to greatest 2.8,2.8x10^2,2.8x10^-3,2.8x10^4,2.8x10^-5

Answers

This is the list of the numbers from least to greatest:
2.8x10^-5
2.8x10^-3
2.8
2.8x10^2
2.8x10^4

Answer:

[tex]2.8\times 10^{-5},2.8\times 10^{-3},2.8, 2.8\times 10^2,2.8\times 10^4,[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given several numbers and we are asked to order them in least to greatest order.

Given numbers: [tex]2.8, 2.8\times 10^2,2.8\times 10^{-3},2.8\times 10^4,2.8\times 10^{-5}[/tex]

We know that the number with negative power will be smaller than the number with positive powers.

We can see from our given numbers that [tex]2.8\times 10^{-5}[/tex] has a negative power. We can rewrite this as [tex]2.8\times \frac{1}{10^5}[/tex]. This will be the smallest number.

Upon arranging our given number from least to greatest we will get,

[tex]2.8\times 10^{-5},2.8\times 10^{-3},2.8, 2.8\times 10^2,2.8\times 10^4,[/tex]

Jason considered two similar televisions at a local electronics store. The generic version was based on the brand name and was three fourths the size of the brand name. If the generic television set is 12 inches by 24 inches, what are the dimensions of the brand name television?

Answer: The answer is 16 by 32.

Step-by-step explanation:

I took the test and this was correct. Explanation is easy because 12 is 3/4 of 16 and 24 is 3/4 of 32.

If the generic television set is 12 inches by 24 inches, the dimensions of the brand name television is, 16 inches by 32 inches

What is a fraction?

Fraction is a mathematical term, which represents the portion or sub-parts of the whole thing. Basically, It has two parts: numerator and denominator.

Numerator is a number which lies on the top side, it indicates the number of equal parts taken and denominator is on the bottom side, it indicates the equal parts of the whole number.

Given that,

Jason considered two similar televisions at a local electronics store

The generic version was three fourths the size of the brand name

The generic television set is 12 inches by 24 inches

The dimensions of the brand name television = ?

Suppose, the dimensions of the brand name are a  inches by b inches

So,

3/4 a   =  12

a   =  16

Similarly,

3/4 b = 24

b  =  32

Hence, the dimensions are 16 inches by 32 inches

The cost, c(x), for a taxi ride is given by c(x) = 2x + 4.00, where x is the number of minutes. What does the slope mean for this situation
A. The taxi ride costs a total of $4.00

B. The taxi ride costs $2.00 per trip.

C. The rate of change of the cost of the taxi ride is $2.00 per minute.

D. The rate of change of the cost of the taxi ride is $4.00 per minute.

Answers

As m is a constant that is applied to x, it has to have something to do with minutes, eliminating A and B. As the constant is 2, it has to have something to with 2, eliminating D, meaning your answer is C. This is because a slope is the rate of change of y in relation to x, so it would be rate of change of y is a (a being your constant, in this case 2) per x. With your case, y is cost and x is minutes, leading to answer choice C.

The interpretation is (c) the rate of change of the cost of the taxi ride is $2.00 per minute.

How to interpret the slope?

The function is given as:

c(x) = 2x + 4.00

A linear equation is represented as:

c(x) = Slope * x + y-intercept

By comparison, we have:

Slope = 2

This means that the slope of c(x) = 2x + 4.00 is 2

Hence, the interpretation is (c) the rate of change of the cost of the taxi ride is $2.00 per minute.

1. 5*69$ = 345$ , the earning is 345 dollars.
2. 3.5*27.75 = 97.125$, the earning is 97.125 dollars.

Answer:

1. 345 dollars

2. 97.125 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

1) What are the earnings for 5 days at 69 dollars a day?

If a person makes 69 dollars a day and we want to know the earning of 5 days, we would have to multiply the earnings per day by the number of days.

69 x 5 = 345.

2) What are the earnings for 3.5 days at 27.75 dollars a day?

If a person makes 27.75 dollars a day and we want to know the earning of 3.5 days, we would have to multiply the earnings per day by the number of days.

27.75 x 3.5 = 97.125

Is 35 prime or a composite

Answers

 35 is  a composite number. 

Answer: Composite

Step-by-step explanation: To see if 35 is a prime number or a composite number, let's first start by finding the factors of 35.

To find the factors of 35, begin by dividing 35 by 1 which gives us 35. This means that 1 and 35 are factors.

Next, since 35 is not divisible by 2, 3, or 4, we divided 35 by 5 which gives us 7. This means that 5 and 7 are factors.

Next, since 35 is not divisible by 6, we divide 35 by 7 which gives us 5. Notice that 7 and 5 are repeat factors and once we hit repeat factors, this means that all other factors we try will repeat.

Therefore, the factors of 35 are 1, 5, 7, and 35.

Since 35 has more than two factors, it's called a composite number.

Answers

[tex]A = \pi r^2[/tex]

pi = 3.14

64*3.14 = 201
Well I believe that the equation for the area of a circle is [tex] \pi r^{2} [/tex]. Pi*Radius^2 
The radius of the garden is 8ft because it's half of the diameter. 8^2 is 64. Multiply that by 3.14 and you will get approximately 201 square feet so the answer is:

C) 201 square feet

what is 6.02 + 1.3 - _________ = 4.39

Answers

x= 2.93
Or the blank is 2.93

Final answer:

To find the missing number in the equation 6.02 + 1.3 - __ = 4.39, you need to first add 6.02 and 1.3, and then subtract the result from 4.39 to obtain the missing number, which is -2.93.

Explanation:

What you need to do in this question is solve for the missing number to make the equation true: 6.02 + 1.3 - x = 4.39.

First, add 6.02 and 1.3: 6.02 + 1.3 = 7.32.

Next, subtract 7.32 from 4.39 to find the missing number: 4.39 - 7.32 = -2.93. Therefore, the missing number is -2.93.

$6.94+x=$3.95
If you want an explanation let me know
B: $6.94 + x = $3.95
because
colored pencils for =$3.95
a drawing tablet = x/$2.99
The total cost of the supplies = $6.94
