A scientist is studying how bacteria thrive under different conditions of temperature and pressure The scientist develops bacteria population models for the different conditions, as shown below.
The models predict the bacteria population, P, after t hours.
Condition 1: P (t) = 500(0.3)'
Condition 2. P(t) =500(1.65)
Condition 3: P(t) =500(0.95)24
Condition 4: P (t) = 500(1.2)0.54
Which Conditions are for population growth and which are for population decay?

The rows and columns of lattice points in a three-by-three square array are evenly spaced one unit apart. how many distinct triangles with at least one side of length 2 units can be drawn using three lattice points for the vertices?

Atriangular bandana has an area of 46 square inches. the height of the triangle is 5 3 4 inches. enter and solve an equation to find the length of the base of the triangle. use b to represent the length of the base.

The federal reserve controls certain interest rates in the united states. investors often try to speculate as to whether the federal reserve will raise or lower rates and by how much. suppose a company conducts extensive interviews with financial analysts, and as a result, predicts that "thefed" will increase rates by an average of 0.25 percentage points every six months for the forseeable future. which type of equation could be used to model the predicted interest rates over the next several years, assuming no other significant changes? a) a linear equation b) a quadratic equation c) a polynomial equation d) an exponential equation
