Answer:
(x) = 5000(0.4)x, with a horizontal asymptote of y = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The function is in the form
y = a b^x
where a is the initial value and b is the growth (or decay rate)
a = 5000 and b = 40 %
(If we have been given 40 % dies off we would have taken 1-40% or 1- .4)
y = 5000 ( .4) ^x
This has a horizontal asymptote at y = 0 because we will never get to 0 bacteria. There will always be part of a bacterial left

Work out an estimate for the value of
41.2 x 19.8
——————-
0.49
Answer:
820
Step-by-step explanation:
41.2 * 19.8 = 41 *20 = 820
41.2
In this tenth value is 2 which is less than 5. So ignore it and write the whole number alone. 41
19.8
In this tenth value is 8 awhich greater than 5. So add 1 to whole part and write.
19+1 = 20
If 2^x-4 = 4^x-6 , then value of x is?
Answer: [tex]x=1[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]2^x-4=4^x-6[/tex] is the equation that you've given us.
Now if we plot these two equations on the graph we notice there's an intersection at (1,-2). Therefore meaning that [tex]x=1[/tex].
We can prove that by doing the following calculations to prove that both sides are equal to each other.
The left side of the equal sign:
Step 1: Write the equation down:
[tex]2^x-4[/tex]
Step 2: Substitute x for the numerical value we found.
[tex]2^1-4[/tex]
Step 3: Find the square of [tex]2^1[/tex], which is itself, 2.
[tex]2-4[/tex]
Step 4: Subtract 2 from 4. Which is a negative number, thus being -2.
[tex]-2[/tex]
The right side of the equal sign:
Step 1: Write the equation down:
[tex]4^x-6[/tex]
Step 2: Substitute x for the numerical value we found.
[tex]4^1-6[/tex]
Step 3: Find the square of [tex]4^1[/tex], which is itself, 4.
[tex]4-6[/tex]
Step 4: Subtract 4 from 6. Which is a negative number, thus being -2.
[tex]-2[/tex]
We know that [tex]x=1[/tex] because when substituting x with 1, we get -2 on both sides. Therefore making this statement true and valid.
[tex]-2=-2[/tex]

125 + (a-b)³ help me
Answer:
(5 + a - b)(a² + b² - 2ab - 5a + 5b + 25)
Step-by-step explanation:
125 + (a - b)³ ← is a sum of cubes and factors in general as
a³ + b³ = (a + b)(a² - ab + b²)
Then
125 + (a- b)³
= 5³ + (a - b)³
with a = 5 and b = (a - b)
= (5 a a - b)(5² - 5(a - b) + (a - b)² )
= (5 + a - b)(25 - 5a + 5b + a² - 2ab + b²)
= (5 + a - b)(a² + b² - 2ab - 5a + 5b + 25)

please help geometry surface area
Answer: 159
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to find the surface area of two triangles and 3 rectangles
To find the surface areas of the triangles, we use the formula: base x height / 2
6 x 5.5 / 2 = 16.5
Multiply that by 2 since there are 2 of them
16.5 x 2 = 33
To find the surface area of the rectangles, we multiply the length and width
7 x 6 = 42
Multiply that by 3 since there are 3 of them
42 x 3 = 126
Add up all the surface areas
126 + 33 = 159

Hey can someone help me figure out what 3/4(x-8)=12
Answer:
x=24
Step-by-step explanation:
3/4(x-8)=12
Multiply each side by 4/3
4/3*3/4(x-8)=12*4/3
x-8 = 16
Add 8 to each side
x-8+8 = 16+8
x=24
Answer:
x = 24
Step-by-step explanation:
Essentially, you need to break this apart.
You need to isolate the x to figure it out with division or something.
To isolate, you need to get rid of the numbers around it.
To get rid of the 3/4, you can convert it to a decimal to make it easier, and then divide both sides by 0.75 to get rid of it on the x's side.
You now have
x-8 = 12/0.75
You can quickly punch the right side into a calculator to make it easier.
x - 8 = 16
You then add 8 to both sides to finish off the x, to get
x = 24
The height and radius of a cone are each multiplied by 11. What effect does this have on the volume of the cone?
The volume of the cone is multiplied by (Blank 1).
The volume of the new cone would be 1331 times more than the volume of the original cone. Thus, The volume of the original cone is multiplied by 1331
The volume of the cone can be calculated by the given formula:
The volume of cone = [tex]\frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2} h[/tex]
where r = radius of the cone
h = height of the cone
Solution:
The volume of the original cone= .......1
It is given that the height and radius of a cone are multiplied by 11.
then volume
= [tex]\frac{1}{3} \pi (11r)^{2} (11h)[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{1}{3} \pi (121r^{2}) (11h)[/tex] .........2
The change in volume of the cone after multiplying 11 to r and h would be
dividing equation 2 by equation 1
= [tex]\frac{1}{3} \pi (121r^{2}) (11h)[/tex]/[tex]\frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2} h[/tex]
= 121*11
= 1331
Thus, The volume of the original cone is multiplied by 1331

Step-by-step explanation:
We are multiplying the matrix by a scalar
Each term in the first matrix is multiplied by 2
[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2l&2m&2n\\2p&2q&2r\\2s&2t&2u\end{array}\right][/tex]
Factor out 2

We know that the determinant of a matrix when multiplied by a scalar is found by
det ( a A) =a^n * det (A)
The scalar in this case is 2 and n is the number of rows ( or columns) since the matrix must be square
det (2A) = 2^3 det(A) = 8A

Yet another calculus question :)
Given [tex]y = x^3 - 2x[/tex] for [tex]x \geq 0[/tex], find the equation of the tangent line to y where the absolute value of the slope is minimized.
I have tried taking both the first and second derivatives and setting them equal to 0 and using that as the answer, but they're incorrect. Could somebody please explain how to complete the question correctly? Thank you so much!
Answer: y = (-4/3)*sqrt(2/3)
This is the same as writing [tex]y = -\frac{4}{3}\sqrt{\frac{2}{3}}[/tex]
============================================================
Explanation:
The phrasing "where the absolute value of the slope is minimized" is an interesting way of saying "the tangent slope is 0". This is because absolute values are never negative, so the smallest it can get is 0.
Your teacher has given you
y = x^3 - 2x
which differentiates into
dy/dx = 3x^2 - 2
after using the power rule
The derivative function lets us determine the slope of the tangent. The slope is the dy/dx value. Since we want a slope of 0, we'll set 3x^2-2 equal to zero and solve for x. So you have the correct idea, but you won't involve the second derivative.
dy/dx = 0
3x^2 - 2 = 0
3x^2 = 2
x^2 = 2/3
x = sqrt(2/3)
Notice how I'm ignoring the negative version of this root. This is due to the fact that [tex]x \ge 0[/tex]
-------------------------
Now plug this x value back into the original equation to find its corresponding y coordinate.
y = x^3 - 2x
y = x(x^2 - 2)
y = sqrt(2/3)*( 2/3 - 2 )
y = sqrt(2/3)*( -4/3 )
y = (-4/3)*sqrt(2/3)
Note that x = sqrt(2/3) leads to x^2 = 2/3 after squaring both sides.
-------------------------
Therefore, the equation of this tangent line is y = (-4/3)*sqrt(2/3)
All horizontal lines are of the form y = k, for some constant k. This constant value is basically what number you want the horizontal line to go through on the y axis. That number would be (-4/3)*sqrt(2/3).
