At the beginning of an experiment, a scientist has 208 grams of radioactive goo. After 165 minutes, her sample has decayed to 13 grams. What is the half-life of the goo in minutes? Find a formula for G(t), the amount of goo remaining at time t. G(t) = How many grams of goo will remain after 59 minutes? You may enter the exact value or round to 2 decimal places.
A bacteria culture initially contains 2000 bacteria and doubles every half hour. Find the size of the baterial population after 20 minutes. 3174.49 Find the size of the baterial population after 9 hours. 522900868.215
The doubling period of a bacterial population is 10 minutes. At time t = 120 minutes, the bacterial population was 50000. What was the initial population at time t = 0? Find the size of the bacterial population after 5 hours.
The fox population in a certain region has a continuous growth rate of 4 percent per year. It is estimated that the population in the year 2000 was 13300. (a) Find a function that models the population t years after 2000 (t = 0 for 2000). Hint: Use an exponential function with base e. Your answer is P(t) = (b) Use the function from part (a) to estimate the fox population in the year 2008. Your answer is (the answer must be an integer)
