The rate of change of the area covered by a mold on a piece of bread is \boxed{0.67}.

Further explanation:

The rate of change can be expressed as follows,

Given:

Nine days ago the area covered by a mold on a piece of bread was 3 square inches.

Today the mold covers 9 square inches.

Explanation:

The final area covered by a mold on a piece of bread is 9{\text{ square inches}}.

The initial area covered by a mold on a piece of bread is 3{\text{ square inches}}.

Initial time is 0.

Final time is 9.

The rate of change can be calculated as follows,

\begin{aligned}{\text{Rate of change}}&= \frac{{{\text{Final value}} - {\text{Initial value}}}}{{{\text{Final time}} - {\text{Initial time}}}}\\&=\frac{{9 - 3}}{{9 - 0}}\\&= \frac{6}{9}\\&= \frac{2}{3}\\&= 0.67\\\end{aligned}

The rate of change of the area covered by a mold on a piece of bread is \boxed{0.67}.

Suppose that the concentration of a bacteria sample is 100000 bacteria per milliliter. If the concentration doubles every 2 hour
Aliun [14]

Answer:

3.85 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the model equation in this case would be of the following type, being "and" the concentration of bacteria:

y = a * e ^ (b * t)

where a and b are constants and t is time.

We know that when the time is 0, we know that there are 100,000 bacteria, therefore:

100000 = a * e ^ (b * 0)

100000 = a * 1

a = 100000

they tell us that when the time is 2 hours, the amount doubles, that is:

200000 = a * e ^ (b * 2)

already knowing that a equals 100,000

e ^ (b * 2) = 2

b * 2 = ln 2

b = (ln 2) / 2

b = 0.3465

Having the value of the constants, we will calculate the value of the time when there are 380000, that is:

380000 = 100000 * (e ^ 0.3465 * t)

3.8 = e ^ 0.3465 * t

ln 3.8 = 0.3465 * t

t = 1.335 / 0.3465

t = 3.85

That is to say that in order to reach this concentration 3.85 hours must pass

A random sample of 160 car purchases are selected and categorized by age. The results are listed below. The age distribution of
seraphim [82]

Answer:

The claim that all ages have purchase rates proportional to their driving rates is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is:

A random sample of 160 car accidents are selected and categorized by the age of the driver determined to be at fault. The results are listed below. The age distribution of drivers for the given categories is 18% for the under 26 group, 39% for the 26-45 group, 31% for the 45-65 group, and 12% for the group over 65. Calculate the chi-square test statistic used to test the claim that all ages have crash rates proportional to their driving rates.

Age      >26     26-45       46-65      45<

Drivers 66    39            25          30

  A) 95.431

      B)101.324

      C)85.123

      D)75.101

Solution:

In this case we need to test whether there is sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that all ages have crash rates proportional to their driving rates.

A Chi-square test for goodness of fit will be used in this case.

The hypothesis can be defined as:

<em>H₀</em>: The observed frequencies are same as the expected frequencies.

<em>Hₐ</em>: The observed frequencies are not same as the expected frequencies.

The test statistic is given as follows:

\chi^{2}=\sum{\frac{(O-E)^{2}}{E}}

The values are computed in the table.

The test statistic value is 75.10.

The degrees of freedom of the test is:

n - 1 = 4 - 1 = 3

Compute the p-value of the test as follows:

p-value < 0.00001

*Use a Chi-square table.

p-value < 0.00001 < α = 0.05.

So, the null hypothesis will be rejected at any significance level.

Thus, there is sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that ages have crash rates proportional to their driving rates.

Ampicillin 250 mg IM every 12 hours is ordered. After reconstitution, there's 125 mg/mL. How many mL would you give?
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

Correct choice is C. 2 mL.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Ampicillin 250 mg IM every 12 hours is ordered. After reconstitution, there's 125 mg/mL. Now we need to find about how many mL would you give.

Let number of ml needed = x.

Since ratio of mg per mL will be fixed so we get equation:

\frac{mL}{mg}=\frac{x}{250}=\frac{1}{125}

\frac{x}{250}=\frac{1}{125}

x=\frac{1}{125} \times 250

x=\frac{250}{125}

x=2

Hence correct choice is C. 2 mL.

Suppose a1=12−12,a2=23−13,a3=34−14,a4=45−15,a5=56−16. a) Find an explicit formula for an: . b) Determine whether the sequence is
lorasvet [3.4K]

I'm going to assume you meant to write fractions (because if a_n are all non-negative integers, the series would clearly diverge), so that

a_1=\dfrac12-\dfrac12

a_2=\dfrac23-\dfrac13

a_3=\dfrac34-\dfrac14

and so on.

a. If the pattern continues as above, we would have the general term

a_n=\dfrac n{n+1}-\dfrac1{n+1}=\dfrac{n-1}{n+1}

b. Note that we can write a_n as

a_n=\dfrac{n-1}{n+1}=\dfrac{n+1-2}{n+1}=1-\dfrac2{n+1}

The series diverges by comparison to the divergent series

\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac1n
