z= x-u / sd

u= mean = 50
x = score = 43
z= 1.94

so
1.94 = 43-50 /sd
1.94 = -7sd
so 1 sd = 1.94/ -7 = -3.6

A professor is examining a new strain of bacteria. The amount of bacteria can be modeled by function s(n) = 20 · bn, where n is
user100 [1]
For this case we have a function of the form:
 y = A * (b) ^ n

 Where,
 A: initial amount
 b: growth rate (if b> 1)
 n: time in hours
 Substituting values we have:
 s (n) = 20 * b ^ n

 We have then that the initial amount is:
 A = 20

 If b = 1.85 then the growth percentage is:
 (1.85-1) * (100) = 85%

 Answer:
 
here were initially 20 bacteria.
 
The hourly percent growth rate of the bacteria would be 85%

A scale model of a merry-go-round and the actual merry-go-round are similar. a. How many times greater is the base area of the a
Kipish [7]
The area ratio is the square of the linear dimension ratio. So if the merry-go-round base is circular, the area contains the square of the radius. If a polygon, the base can be divided into triangles. The area of each triangle involves the product of the base length and the height, so since both have the same change of length, the product will square the scaling ratio.
Let’s say the ratio of corresponding lengths is x:1 then the ratio of the base areas is x²:1.
The question doesn’t provide any figures.
Let’s put some in as an example. Let the actual merry-go-round be circular with a diameter of 20 feet, while the model is one foot in diameter. So the ratio of the actual ride and it’s model is 20:1. The area of the base of the actual ride is 100π sq ft. The area of the base of the model is π/4 sq ft. We expect the ratio of these areas to be 20²=400. 100π/(π/4)=400.

A trapezoid has an area of 20 cm2 and a height z cm. The lengths of the parallel sides are (2z + 3) cm and (6z – 1) cm. Find the
andriy [413]
Check the picture below.

\bf A=\cfrac{h(a+b)}{2}\quad 
\begin{cases}
A=20\\
a=6z-1\\
b=2z+3\\
h=z
\end{cases}\implies 20=\cfrac{z[(6z-1)~+~(2z+3)]}{2}
\\\\\\
20=\cfrac{z(8z+2)}{2}\implies 20=\cfrac{2z(4z+1)}{2}\implies 20=z(4z+1)
\\\\\\
20=4z^2+z\implies 0=4z^2+z-20

\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{quadratic formula}\\\\
\begin{array}{llccll}
0=&{{ 4}}z^2&{{ +1}}x&{{ -20}}\\
&\uparrow &\uparrow &\uparrow \\
&a&b&c
\end{array} 
\qquad \qquad 
z= \cfrac{ - {{ b}} \pm \sqrt { {{ b}}^2 -4{{ a}}{{ c}}}}{2{{ a}}}
\\\\\\
z=\cfrac{-1\pm\sqrt{1+320}}{8}\implies z=\cfrac{-1\pm\sqrt{321}}{8}\implies z\approx 
\begin{cases}
\boxed{2.1146}\\
-2.3646
\end{cases}

since the height is just a length unit, it can't be -2.3646.
