Type the correct answer in the box. Use numerals instead of words. If necessary, use / for the fraction bar. David invested $220

in a savings account that offers a 3% return on the investment. The value of David's investment will be at least $400 after a period of years. Hint: Use the formula A = P(1 + r)t, where A is the amount after t years, P is the amount invested, r is the rate of interest, and t is the time period. Use a calculator to compute the answer, and round it off to the nearest year.

A machine can stamp 40 envelopes in 8 mins. How many of these machines working simultaneously are required or needed to stamp 12

lawyer [12517]

Answer:

24 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y represent the rate of 120 envelopes per minute.

40/8 = 120/y

40y = 8 * 120

40y = 960

y = 960/40

= 24 minutes

A common inhabitant of human intestines is the bacterium Escherichia coli, named after the German pediatrician Theodor Escherich

babunello [11817]

A.) P(t) = P0e^(kt)
P(20/60) = 40 e^(20k/60)
80 = 40 e^(k/3)
e^(k/3) = 80/40 = 2
k/3 = ln(2)
k = 3ln(2)

b.) P(8) = 40(2)^24 = 40(16777216) = 671088640 cells

d.) Rate of change = e^(8k) = e^(8(3ln(2))) = e^(24ln(2)) = e^(16.6355) = 16777216 cells/hour

e.) P(t) = 40(2)^(3t); t in hours
1,000,000 = 40(8)^t
25,000 = 8^t
ln(25,000) = t ln(8)
t = ln(25,000)/ln(8) = 4.87 hours
