(f) How many hours did it take for the population to reach 104,000? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
hr

A. 86.64%

B. 80

C. y(t)= 80

D. y(5.5) = 9388

E. y(t) = 8134 bacteria for every hour

F.  8.28 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The bacteria count after 4 hours y(4) = 2560

The bacteria count after 12 hours y(12) = 2621440

equation 1: ye^4k = 2560

equation 2: ye^12k= 2621440

divide (2) by (1),

e^8k = 1024

Taking ln both sides:

ln(e8k ) = ln(1024)

8k = 6.931

k=0.8664      // after dividing both sides by 8

rate of growth k% = 0.8664*100 = 86.64%

b. substituting for k in equation 2:

   ye^4*0.8664 = 2560

   Initial bacteria count y(4) = 80

c. y(t)= 80e^0.8664t

d. the number of bacteria after 5.5 hours => y(5.5) = 80 ≈ 9388

e. y'(5.5) = 80*0.8664e^0.8664(5.5) = 69.31e^0.8664(5.5) = 8134

f. for bacteria population = 104000

where ye^0.8664t = 104000

   y = 80

   80e^0.8664t = 104000    //divide both sides by 80

   e^0.8664t = 1300

   ln(e^0.8664t = ln(1300)

   t = 7.17 / 0.8664 = 8.28 hours

∠lno ≅ ∠lnm

∠oln ≅ ∠mln

step-by-step explanation:

given   that triangle lno is congruent to triangle lnm.

we have to fill up the blanks in the given question.

according to above order of congruency   kept in mind we can say that

∠lno ≅ ∠lnm

∠oln ≅ ∠mln

ln ≅ ln due to common in both.

hence, by sas congruency,

the side angle side rule   states that if two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to another triangle, then these two triangles are congruent.

m∠cdf = 43° , m∠gdf = 114°, m∠gde = 23°, m∠edh = 23° , m∠cdh = 157°

step-by-step explanation:

since, it is given that de bisects the angle gdh ⇒ de divides the angle gdh into two equal angles.

⇒ m∠gde = m∠edh

⇒ 8·x   - 1 = 6·x + 5

⇒ x = 3

so, m∠gde = 8·x - 1 = 23°

and m∠edh = 23°

now, it is given ∠cde is an straight angle so, m∠cde = 180°

⇒ m∠cdf + m∠fdg + m∠gde = 180°

⇒ 43° + m∠fdg + 23° = 180°

⇒ m∠fdg = 114°

again, m∠cde = m∠cdh + m∠edh = 180°

m∠cdh + 23° = 180°

⇒ m∠cdh = 157°
