Most states categorize possession of cocaine charges by weight. Possessing less than a gram will result in the lowest level of f

elony. From there, the weight categories are broken into degrees. The higher the weight, the higher degree of felony charged. New York State uses the measures given in the table below to charge a suspect.Amount Charge
Over ⅛ oz. Class C felony
Over ½ oz. Class B felony
Over 2 oz. Class A-II felony
Over 4 oz. Class A-I felony

If a suspect is in possession of .06 kilograms of cocaine how many ounces does he possess? What will be the charge?

Answer:

  Over 2 oz. Class A-II felony

Step-by-step explanation:

One would need to carefully weigh the material.*

  0.06 kg ≈ 2.12 oz

Note that .06 kg is 1 significant figure, so this rounds to 2 oz (1 significant figure). Given the precision of the reported weight, there is insufficient precision to say the amount is actually over 2 oz.

__

If you take the numbers at face value, the suspect is in possession of over 2 oz, so will be charged with a Class A-II felony.

_____

* 2.00 ounces translates to about 0.0567 kg, which rounds to 0.06 kg.

4. Suppose that Peculiar Purples and Outrageous Oranges are two different and unusual types of bacteria. Both types multiply thr
Viktor [21]

Answer:

Peculiar purples would be more abundant

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that eculiar Purples and Outrageous Oranges are two different and unusual types of bacteria. Both types multiply through a mechanism in which each single  bacterial cell splits into four. Time taken for one split is 12 m for I one and 10 minutes for 2nd

The function representing would be

i) P=P_0 (4)^{t/12} for I bacteria where t is no of minutes from start.

ii) P=P_0 (4)^{t/10} for II bacteria where t is no of minutes from start. P0 is the initial count of bacteria.

a) Here P0 =3, time t = 60 minutes.

i) I bacteria P = 3(4)^{5} =3072

ii) II bacteria P = 3(4)^{4} =768

b) Since II is multiplying more we find that I type will be more abundant.

The difference in two hours would be

3(4)^{10}- 3(4)^{8} =2949120

c) i) P=P_0 (4)^{t/12} for I bacteria where t is no of minutes from start.

ii) P=P_0 (4)^{t/10} for II bacteria where t is no of minutes from start. P0 is the initial count of bacteria.

d) At time 36 minutes we have t = 36

Peculiar purples would be

i) P=3 (4)^{36/12}=192

The rate may not be constant for a longer time.  Hence this may not be accurate.

e) when splits into 2, we get

P=P_o (2^t) where P0 is initial and t = interval of time
