Answer:

There are 119 bacteria after 3 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be b(t) = 100\cdot 1.06^{t}, where t is the time, measured in hours, and b(t) is the number of total bacteria, dimensionless. The number of total bacteria after 3 hours is found after evaluating the function at given function:

b (3) = 100\cdot 1.06^{3}

b(3) = 119.102

We rounded to the nearest preceeding whole number, since number of bacteria represents a discrete set. There are 119 bacteria after 3 hours.

What is the value of x in the equation below? –3 – (–8) – (–2) = x
Ghella [55]

Answer:

–3 – (–8) – (–2) = x

Step-by-step explanation:

–3 – (–8) – (–2) = x

Subtracting a negative is adding a positive

-3 +8+2 =x

Starting from left to right

5 +2 =x

my class collected 389 milk jugs. We used 40 jugs. We gave 30 milk to the first graders. how many milk jugs did we have?
BartSMP [9]
We will just do the following steps:-

389 - 40 = 349
349 - 30 = 319

So, in the end your class had 319 milk jugs left.

The following formula for the sum of the cubes of the first n integers is proved in Appendix E. Use it to evaluate the limit in
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

\lim_{n\to\infty} (1+ \frac{2}{n} +\frac{1}{n^2})

And when we apply the limit we got that:

\lim_{n\to\infty} (1+ \frac{2}{n} +\frac{1}{n^2}) =1

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming this complete problem: "The following formula for the sum of the cubes of the first n integers is proved in Appendix E. Use it to evaluate the limit . 1^3+2^3+3^3+...+n^3=[n(n+1)/2]^2"

We have the following formula in order to find the sum of cubes:

\lim_{n\to\infty} \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} i^3

We can express this formula like this:

\lim_{n\to\infty} \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}i^3 =\lim_{n\to\infty} [\frac{n(n+1)}{2}]^2

And using this property we need to proof that: 1^3+2^3+3^3+...+n^3=[n(n+1)/2]^2

\lim_{n\to\infty} [\frac{n(n+1)}{2}]^2

If we operate and we take out the 1/4 as a factor we got this:

\lim_{n\to\infty} \frac{n^2(n+1)^2}{n^4}

We can cancel n^2 and we got

\lim_{n\to\infty} \frac{(n+1)^2}{n^2}

We can reorder the terms like this:

\lim_{n\to\infty} (\frac{n+1}{n})^2

We can do some algebra and we got:

\lim_{n\to\infty} (1+\frac{1}{n})^2

We can solve the square and we got:

\lim_{n\to\infty} (1+ \frac{2}{n} +\frac{1}{n^2})

And when we apply the limit we got that:

\lim_{n\to\infty} (1+ \frac{2}{n} +\frac{1}{n^2}) =1

The length of a rectangular rug is 4 feet less than twice its width. The perimeter of the rug is 40 feet. Write a system of equa
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

L=2W-4

40=2L+2W

The first equation uses the information that the length of a rectangular rug is 4 feet less than twice its width.

The second equation is using your standard perimeter equation of 2L+2W=perimeter of a rectangle.

Hope this is helpful :)
