A common inhabitant of human intestines is the bacterium Escherichia coli, named after the German pediatrician Theodor Escherich, who identified it in 1885. A cell of this bacterium in a nutrient-broth medium divides into two cells every 20 minutes. The initial population of a culture is 50 cells.

Required:
a. Find the relative growth rate.
b. Find an expression for the number of cells after t hours.
c. Find the rate of growth after 6 hours. (Round your answer to the nearest integer.)
d. Find the number of cells after 6 hours.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. Relative Growth rate = 10% (6/60 * 100)

b. Number of cells after t hours = 50 * 1.1^t

c. Rate of growth after 6 hours = 77.2% (1.1⁶ - 1)

d. The number of cells after 6 hours is

= 89 cells

Step-by-step explanation:

A cell divides into two cells every 20 minutes

In one hour, the cell will divide into 60/20 * 2 = 6 cells

Each cell growth 6 cells per hour

Initial population of a culture = 50 cells

t = time in hours

a. Relative Growth rate = 10% (6/60 * 100)

b. Number of cells after t hours = 50 * 1.1^t

c. Rate of growth after 6 hours = 77.2% (1.1⁶ - 1)

d. The number of cells after 6 hours = initial population * growth factor

= 50 * 1.772

= 88.6

= 89 cells

Consider the function z(x,y) describing the paraboloid \[z = (2x - y)^2 - 2y^2 - 3y.\]Archimedes and Brahmagupta are playing a game. Archimedes first chooses $x.$ Afterwards, Brahmagupta chooses $y.$ Archimedes wishes to minimize $z$ while Brahmagupta wishes to maximize $z.$ Assuming that Brahmagupta will play optimally, what value of $x$ should Archimedes choose?

Answers

Answer: -3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Expanding z we get  

z = 4x^2 - 4xy + y^2 - 2y^2 - 3y

  = -y^2 - (4x + 3) y + 4x^2.

After Archimedes chooses x, Brahmagupta will choose

y=-(4x+3/2) in order to maximize z

Then  

z=-((-4x+3)/2)^2 -(4x+3)(-4x+3)/2)^2)+4x^2

z=8x^2+6x+9/4

To minimize this expression, Archimedes should choose x=-3/8

Answer:

3 gallons 15%2 gallons 10%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the quantity of 15% alcohol required. Then (5-x) is the amount of 10% alcohol needed. The amount of alcohol in the mix is ...

  0.15x +0.10(5-x) = 0.13(5)

  0.05x +0.5 = 0.65 . . . . . . . simplify

  0.05x = 0.15 . . . . . . . . . subtract 0.5

  x = 3 . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.05

Scores on the SAT are approximately normally distributed. One year, the average score on the Math SAT was 500 and the standard deviation was 120. What was the score of a person who did better than 85% of all the test-takers

Answers

Answer:

The score of a person who did better than 85% of all the test-takers was of 624.44.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

One year, the average score on the Math SAT was 500 and the standard deviation was 120.

This means that [tex]\mu = 500, \sigma = 120[/tex]

What was the score of a person who did better than 85% of all the test-takers?

The 85th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.85, so X when Z = 1.037.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]1.037 = \frac{X - 500}{120}[/tex]

[tex]X - 500 = 1.037*120[/tex]

[tex]X = 624.44[/tex]

The score of a person who did better than 85% of all the test-takers was of 624.44.

While planning a hiking trip, you examine a map of the trail you are going on hike. The scale on the map shows that 2 inches represents 5 miles.

If the trail measures 12 inches on the map, how long is the trail?

Answers

Answer:

30 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Scale = 2 inches represents 5 miles

This means that 2 inches in the map equals to 5 miles on ground ;

Hence, if the trail measures 12 inches on the map, the length on ground will be ; x

2 inches = 5 miles

12 inches = x miles

Cross multiply :

2x = (12 * 5)

2x = 60

x = 60 / 2

x = 30 miles

Based on a​ poll, among adults who regret getting​ tattoos, 24​% say that they were too young when they got their tattoos. Assume that six adults who regret getting tattoos are randomly​ selected, and find the indicated probability.

a. Find the probability that none of the selected adults say that they were too young to get tattoos.
b. Find the probability that exactly one of the selected adults says that he or she was too young to get tattoos.
c. Find the probability that the number of selected adults saying they were too young is 0 or 1.

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.1927 = 19.27% probability that none of the selected adults say that they were too young to get tattoos.

b) 0.3651 = 36.51% probability that exactly one of the selected adults says that he or she was too young to get tattoos.

c) 0.5578 = 55.78% probability that the number of selected adults saying they were too young is 0 or 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they say they were too young to get tattoos, or they do not say this. The probability of a person saying this is independent of any other person, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

24​% say that they were too young when they got their tattoos.

This means that [tex]p = 0.24[/tex]

Six adults

This means that [tex]n = 6[/tex]

a. Find the probability that none of the selected adults say that they were too young to get tattoos.

This is P(X = 0). So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{6,0}.(0.24)^{0}.(0.76)^{6} = 0.1927[/tex]

0.1927 = 19.27% probability that none of the selected adults say that they were too young to get tattoos.

b. Find the probability that exactly one of the selected adults says that he or she was too young to get tattoos.

This is P(X = 1). So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{6,1}.(0.24)^{1}.(0.76)^{5} = 0.3651[/tex]

0.3651 = 36.51% probability that exactly one of the selected adults says that he or she was too young to get tattoos.

c. Find the probability that the number of selected adults saying they were too young is 0 or 1.

This is:

[tex]p = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.1927 + 0.3651 = 0.5578[/tex]

0.5578 = 55.78% probability that the number of selected adults saying they were too young is 0 or 1.

Answer:

  sin(θ) = (-7√65)/65

  csc(θ) = (-√65)/7

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle will have the given characteristics if its terminal ray passes through the 3rd-quadrant point (-4, -7). The distance from the origin to that point is ...

  d = √((-4)² +(-7)²) = √65

The sine of the angle is the ratio of the y-coordinate to this value:

  sin(θ) = -7/√65

  sin(θ) = (-7√65)/65

The cosecant is the inverse of the sine

  csc(θ) = (-√65)/7

A town recently dismissed 8 employees in order to meet their new budget reductions. The town had 9 employees over 50 years of age and 16 under 50.

Express your answer as a fraction or a decimal number rounded to four decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

The probability that at least 7 employees were over 50 is 0.0073%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a town recently dismissed 8 employees in order to meet their new budget reductions, and the town had 9 employees over 50 years of age and 16 under 50, if the dismissed employees were selected at random, to determine what is the probability that at least 7 employees were over 50, the following calculation must be performed:

9/25 x 8/24 x 7/23 x 6/22 x 5/21 x 4/20 x 3/19 = X

0.36 x 0.33 x 0.304 x 0.272 x 0.238 x 0.2 x 0.157 = X

0.000073 = X

100X = 0.0073

Therefore, the probability that at least 7 employees were over 50 is 0.0073%.

Answer:

[tex]MSE = 10[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]SSTR = 200[/tex]

[tex]SST = 800[/tex]

Required

Determine MSE

This is calculated as:

[tex]MSE = \frac{1}{ddf} * SSE[/tex]

Where:

[tex]SSE = SST - SSTR[/tex]

[tex]ddf \to[/tex] denominator df

So, we have:

[tex]SSE = 800 - 200[/tex]

[tex]SSE = 600[/tex]

To calculate the df, we have:

[tex]r = 13[/tex] --- observations

[tex]n = 5[/tex] treatments

So:

[tex]ddf = Total\ df - Numerator\ df[/tex]

[tex]Total = n*r-1 = 5*13 -1 = 64[/tex]

[tex]Numerator =n - 1 = 5 - 1 =4[/tex]

[tex]ddf =64-4=60[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]MSE = \frac{1}{ddf} * SSE[/tex]

[tex]MSE = \frac{1}{60} * 600[/tex]

[tex]MSE = 10[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

When the same problem is repeated, I like to solve it using a spreadsheet. That way, the formulas only need to be entered once, and the arithmetic is (almost) guaranteed to be done correctly.

A "form factor" computed from side lengths can be used to determine the type of triangle. Where 'c' is the long side, that factor can be computed as ...

  f = a² +b² -c²

and interpreted as follows:

f = 0, right trianglef > 0, acute trianglef < 0, obtuse triangle

(The sign of f matches the sign of the cosine of the largest angle computed using the law of cosines.)

Of course, a right triangle can also be identified by looking at the slopes of the sides of the triangle. If any pair of slopes has a product that is -1, or if any pair is 0 and "undefined", then the triangle will be a right triangle.

The attached spreadsheet is designed to accommodate a number of different problem requirements. It shows both side lengths and slopes, and it shows the "form factor" as described above. The final classification is shown at far right.
