A virus takes 13 days to double its original population (A = 2A0). How long will it take to triple its population? Round to
the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

20.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The exponential function to solve the problem.

A = [tex]A_0[/tex] [tex]e^{rt}[/tex]

A = population in time t.

[tex]A_0[/tex] = Initial population.

r = growth rate.

t = time

The number of days taken to triple the population is 20.7 days.

What is a function?

function is a relationship between inputs where each input is related to exactly one output.

Example:

f(x) = 2x + 1

f(1) = 2 + 1 = 3

f(2) = 2 x 2 + 1 = 4 + 1 = 5

The outputs of the functions are 3 and 5

The inputs of the function are 1 and 2.

We have,

The exponential function to solve the problem.

A = [tex]A_0[/tex] [tex]e^{rt}[/tex]

A = population in time t.

[tex]A_0[/tex] = Initial population.

r = growth rate.

t = time

Now,

A = 2[tex]A_0[/tex]

t = 13

A = [tex]A_0[/tex] [tex]e^{rt}[/tex]

[tex]2A_0[/tex] = [tex]A_0e^{13r}[/tex]

2 = [tex]e^{13r}[/tex]

Taking logs on both sides.

log 2 = 13r log e

0.30 = 13r

r = 0.30/13

r = 0.023

Now,

A = 3[tex]A_0[/tex]

A = [tex]A_0[/tex] [tex]e^{rt}[/tex]

3 = [tex]e^{rt}[/tex]

log 3 = rt

0.48 = 0.023t

t = 0.48/0.023

t = 20.7 days.

Thus,

The number of days taken to triple the population is 20.7 days.

Answers

Answer:

The median increased more

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + y = 15 What is the solution of this system of equations? (5x+2y=-4​

Answers

Answer:

x=34    y=-87     (34,-87)

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+y=15              rewrite to solve for y  ----->    y=15-3x

5x+2y=-4

Plug y=15-3x into 5x+2y=-4

So, 5x+2 (15-3x)=-4

Distribute: 5x+30-6x=-4

Combine like terms: 30-x=-4

Solve for x   -x=-34

Solve for x   x=34

Then, to solve for y, plug "x" into 3x+y=15

So, 3(34)+y=15

Distribute: 102+y=15

Solve for y  y=-87

Answers

The answer is C post it I’ve

In the least-squares regression line, the desired sum of the errors (residuals) should be: zero

What is Number system?

A number system is defined as a system of writing to express numbers.

The key word here is "desired". We wish to make the errors as small as possible. The smallest any individual error can get is 0. Adding the entire collection of zeros will sum in a total of zero.

An error of zero means we hit the mark exactly. The unfortunate reality is that error is going to happen, so we'll have some positive error values with any regression line (or curve). It's only when all points are on the same line is when we have zero error and perfect interpolation rather than regression.

Again, the question is asking about desired error and the ultimate goal is to make the error zero. The next best thing is to minimize it as small as possible

Hence in the least-squares regression line, the desired sum of the errors (residuals) should be: zero

Answer:

a, b, d. Yes c. No

Yes

b. 10 * 53 -4*53  = (10 - 4)*53 = 6*53

A 6.50% coupon bond with 18 years left to maturity is offered for sale at $1,035.25. What yield to maturity [interest rate] is the bond offering? Assume interest payments are paid semi-annually, and solve using semi-annual compounding. Par value is $1000.

Answers

Answer:

The yield to maturity is 6.3974%

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the yield to maturity is as follows

Given that

NPER = 18 × 2 = 36

PMT = $1,035.25 × 6.50% ÷ 2 = $33.65

PV = $1,035.25

FV = $1,000

The formula is shown below:

=RATE(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;TYPE)

The present value comes in negative

AFter applying the above formula, the yield to maturity is

= 3.1987% × 2

= 6.3974%

Hence, the yield to maturity is 6.3974%
