<h2>Hello!</h2>
The answer is: 23.77 hours
<h2>Why?</h2>Where:
Total(t) is equal to the amount for a determined time (in hours)
<em>Start</em> is the original amount
<em>t </em>is the time in hours.
For example, it's known from the statement that the bacteria double their population every 15 hours, so it can be written like this:
To calculate how long it takes for the bacteria cells to increase to 300, we should do the following calculation:
So, to know if we are right, let's replace 23.77 h in the equation:
Total(t)=100*2^\frac{23.77}{15}=299.94
and 299.94≅300
Have a nice day!
Answer:
d = 13.8 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Because we are talking about cubic feet of water, we need the formula for the VOLUME of a cylinder. That formula is
We will use 3.141592654 for pi; if the tank HALF filled with water is at 20 feet, then the height of the tank is 40 feet, so h = 40; and the volume it can hold in total is 6000 cubic feet. Filling in then gives us:
Simplify on the right to get
Divide both sides by 125.6637061 to get that
Taking the square root of both sides gives you
r = 6.90988299
But the diameter is twice the radius, so multiply that r value by 2 to get that the diameter to the nearest tenth of a foot is 13.8
