Answer:

C. 270 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

-This is an exponential growth function which can be expressed using the formula:

P_t=P_oe^{rt}

Where:

  • P_t  is the size at time t.
  • P_o is the initial size
  • r is the growth rate
  • t is the time

Given the size at t=2 and at t=0, we substitute in the growth function to solve for r:

30=10e^{2r}\\\\3=e^{2r}\\\\r=\frac{In \ 3}{2}\\\\=0.54931

We use this calculated rate to determine the population at t=6

P_t=P_oe^{rt}\\\\=10e^{6\times \frac{In \ 3}{2}}\\\\=270\ grams

Hence, the bacteria's size at t=6 is 270 grams

A player hit a serve in a racket sport that was clocked at 129 mph. how much work did he have to do on the 2-oz ball to get that
djyliett [7]

Answer:

1 × 10² J

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

  • Speed (v): 57.7 m/s

\frac{129mi}{h} .\frac{1609.34m}{1mi} .\frac{1h}{3600s} =57.7m/s

  • Mass (m): 0.06 kg

2 oz × (1 kg/35.274 oz) = 0.06 kg

The work exerted by the player is equal to the kinetic energy (K) adquired by the ball.

K = 1/2 × m × v²

K = 1/2 × 0.06 kg × (57.7 m/s)²

K = 1 × 10² J

Point T is at (–3, 7). What are the coordinates of point T' after Ry-axis ∘ Rx-axis?
dimaraw [331]

Given:

The point is T(-3,7).

To find:

The image T' after R_{y-axis}\circ R_{x-axis}.

Solution:

R_{y-axis}\circ R_{x-axis}, it means reflection across x-axis is followed by reflection across y-axis.

If a point is reflected across the x-axis, then

(x,y)\to (x,-y)

T(-3,7)\to T_1(-3,-7)

Then point is reflected across the y-axis. So,

(x,y)\to (-x,y)

T_1(-3,-7)\to T'(3,-7)

Therefore, the coordinates of point T' are (3,-7).
