Question 195269This question is from textbook
: A cell divides into two identical copies every 4 minutes. How many cells will exist after 5 hours? Here is the answer, I was told I have a typo in it, cannot find it.
Growth Formula
A(t)=Ao(2)^(t4) where t is the number of minutes after t=0
A(300)= 1*2^(300/4)
A(300)=2^(75)
A(300)= 3.77x10^22 cells
Thanks

Question 195268This question is from textbook
: STANBON You helped me with this problem:
The level of thorium in a sample decreases by a factor of one-half every 2 million years. A meteorite is discovered to have only 8.6% of its original thorium remaining. How old is the meteorite? I already have the answer, but need to know
What does Ao represent? Do you know what the value of Ao? What does t represent? What are the units of t? Thanks!

-----------
A(t) = Ao*(1/2)^(t/2*10^6)
-----------------------
0.086Ao = Ao*(1/2)^(t/(2 million))
(1/2)^(t/2 million) = 0.086
Take the log to get:
(t/2 million) = log(0.086)/log(1/2) = 3.53951953
t = (2 million)*(3.53951953)
t = 7,079,039.06

Question 195267: Log x^5=27, x=.......?
first u must plug the Logarithm back into exponential form... which is b^x=y (if u dont know the equation for the log it is log b^y=x)
that would then make the equation X^27=5
the you would take the 27 root of 5 and that with give you x
which should equal 1.06142125 which rounded is 1.1

: Hi,
Can you tell me if I did the below right?
Rewrite the following as a single logarithm:
7lnx+4lny-3lnz
I had:
=ln(x^7)Xy^4)(-z^3)
Using property of natural logs ln (m/n) - lnM-lnN
= ln (x^7y^4 / z^-3)
Please let me know. Thank you!!
