A sample of bacteria is growing at a rate of 8% per hour compound continuously. How many hours will it take for the sample to do
Anettt [7]

Answer:

The sample would double in 9 hours

Step-by-step explanation

The number of hours it will take for the sample to double can be found using the 72 rule.

The 72 rule is such that a growth rate would double itself by it is used in dividing the number 72 as shown below:

number of hours =72/8=9 hours

The number of hours it would take the sample to double is 9 hours as computed above.

Mustafa, Heloise, and Gia have written more than a combined total of 22 articles for the school newspaper.
Ghella [55]

Answer:  The required inequality is x+\dfrac{1}{4}x+\dfrac{3}{2}x>22. and its solution is x>8.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that Mustafa, Heloise, and Gia have written more than a combined total of 22 articles for the school newspaper.

Also, Heloise has written \frac{1}{4} as many articles as Mustafa has and Gia has written \frac{3}{2} as many articles as Mustafa has.

We are to write an inequality to determine the number of articles, m, Mustafa could have written for the school newspaper.  Also, to solve the inequality.

Since m denotes the number of articles that Mustafa could have written. Then, according to the given information, we have

x+\dfrac{1}{4}x+\dfrac{3}{2}x>22.

And the solution of the above inequality is as follows :

x+\dfrac{1}{4}x+\dfrac{3}{2}x>22\\\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{4x+x+6x}{4}>22\\\\\\\Rightarrow 11x>88\\\\\Rightarrow x>\dfrac{88}{11}\\\\\Rightarrow x>8.

Thus, the required inequality is x+\dfrac{1}{4}x+\dfrac{3}{2}x>22. and its solution is x>8.

You are testing a claim that the standard deviation of time all women spend washing their hair in the morning is 15 seconds. You
dedylja [7]

Answer:

There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the standard deviation of time all women spend washing their hair in the morning is 15 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

We shall need to formulate the hypotheses but first we need to understand the claim in context of this question. The claim is that  the standard deviation of time all women spend washing their hair in the morning is 15 seconds. In mathematical notation, this claim can be written as follows;

σ = 15

Clearly the claim contains an equality sign and thus it qualifies to be our null hypothesis;

H0: σ = 15

The complement of the above hypothesis will be our alternative hypothesis;

Ha: σ ≠ 15

We are then informed that the initial conclusion of the test fails to reject the null hypothesis. In short this implies that we fail to reject the claim that the standard deviation of time all women spend washing their hair in the morning is 15 seconds since this claim is our null hypothesis. If we fail to reject a claim in hypothesis testing, this implies that there is sufficient evidence to support the claim. Therefore, there is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the standard deviation of time all women spend washing their hair in the morning is 15 seconds

professor190 [17]

Answer:

C. 905 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem bothers on the mensuration of solid shapes, sphere

We know that the volume of a sphere is expresses as

V= 4/3πr³

Given that the diameter of the sphere is 12inches

Radius r= 12/2= 6 inches

Substituting our radius we can solve for the volume

V=4/3(3.142*6³)

V= (4*3.142*216)/3

V= 2714.68/3

V= 904.9in³

Approximately V= 905in³
