1 answer:

3 0

if they double in size every 3 months and there are 12 months in a year, just multiply 250x4=1000 then multiply that by 2. 1000x2=2000

State the size of angle OAB, giving a reason for your answer

Alja [10]

Answer:

Angle OAB = 90°

Reason: tangent theorem of a circle

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram given shows a tangent line of the given circle with center O. The tangent touches the circle at point A.

The diagram also shows the radius of the circle, OA, drawn from the center to the circle to meet at the point of tangency.

Thus, according to the Tangent Theorem of a circle, the point at which the radius drawn from the center meets the point of tangency = 90°. The tangent is perdendicular to the radius drawn to meet at the point of tangency.

Therefore, angle OAB = 90°

The number of bacteria in a culture is given by the function n(t) =950e^0.45t Where t is measured in hours A) what is the contin

tatiyna

Answer:

a) The continuous rate of growth of this bacterium population is 45%

b) Initial population of culture at t = 0 is 950 bacteria

c) number of bacterial culture contain at t = 5 is 9013 bacteria

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of bacteria in a culture is given by

n(t) = 950 $e^{0.45t}$

a) rate of growth is

Bacteria growth model N(t) = no $e^{rt}$

Where r is the growth rate

hence r = 0.45

= 45%

b) Initial population of culture at t = 0

n(0) = 950 $e^{0.45(0)}$

= 950 $e^{0}$

= 950 bacteria

c) number of bacterial culture contain at t = 5

n(5) = 950 $e^{0.45(5)}$

= 950 $e^{2.25}$

= 9013.35

= 9013 bacteria

Sean has 15,000 to invest she will put some of it into a fund that pays 4.5% annual interest in the rest in a certificate of dep

DENIUS [597]

Answer:$12500 was invested into the account that pays 4.5% annual interest..

$2500 was invested into the the certificate of deposit that pays 1.8% annual interest..

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount invested into the account that pays 4.5% annual interest.

Let y represent the amount invested into the certificate of deposit that pays 1.8% annual interest.

Sean has 15,000 to invest. She will put some of it into a fund that pays 4.5% annual interest and the rest in a certificate of deposit that pays 1.8% annual interest. This means that

x = y + 15000

The formula for simple interest is expressed as

I = PRT/100

Where

P represents the principal

R represents interest rate

T represents time in years

I = interest after t years

Considering the account earning 4.5% interest, the interest would be

I = (x × 4.5 × 1)/100 = 0.045x

Considering the account earning 11% interest, the interest would be

I = (x × 1.8 × 1)/100 = 0.018y

if she wants to earn 4.05% annual interest on the total amount, the amount would be

4.05/100 × 15000 = 607.5

Therefore,

0.045x + 0.018y = 607.5 - - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 15000 - y into equation 1, it becomes

0.045(15000 - y) + 0.018y = 607.5

675 - 0.045y + 0.018y = 607.5

- 0.045y + 0.018y = 607.5 - 675

- 0.027y = - 67.5

y = - 67.5/- 0.027

y = $2500

x = 15000 - y = 15000 - 2500

x = $12500
