Fred placed 3 strands of bacteria in a petri dish. The bacteria strands double every hour. Write a formula to represent how many bacteria strands are present at the nth hour. Then, use the formula to determine how many strands of bacteria are present at 4 hours. Which is correct:
A. f(n) = 3(2)n; 59 strands of bacteria
B. f(n) = 2(3)n; 82 strands of bacteria
C. f(n) = 3(2)n; 48 strands of bacteria
D. f(n) = 2(3)n; 162 strands of bacteria

C. ; 48 strands of bacteria

Step-by-step explanation:

Fred placed 3 strands of bacteria in a petri dish.

The bacteria strands double every hour.

Formula : y = ab^x

Where a is the initial value

b = growth rate

x = hours

So, A formula to represent how many bacteria strands are present at the nth hour :

Now we are supposed to find how many strands of bacteria are present at 4 hours.

Substitute the value in the formula :

f(4)=48

Hence 48 strands of bacteria are present at 4 hours.

step-by-step explanation:

use the table and count the number of guesses that has two correct answers.

the following are two correct answers

10010, 01100, 11000

a total of 3 numbers having 2 correct guesses out of 20 questions.

probability of getting 2 correct guesses = the number of questions getting 2 correct answers / total number of questions.

= 3/20

to convert it into percent multiply by 100, we get

= 3/20 * 100

= 15%

the answer is 15%

you.

35x 3= 105

step-by-step explanation:

35+35= 70   70 + 35= 105
