If a bacteria population starts with 160 bacteria and doubles every two hours, then the number of bacteria after t hours is n = f(t) = 160 · 2t/2. (a) find the inverse of this function. f −1(n) = explain its meaning.

n=9

step-by-step explanation:

7 times a number = 7n

decreased by 13 = 7n-13

same as is =

5 times the number = 5n

increased by 5 = 5n+5

7n-13 = 5n+5

2n=18

n=9

answer: bearing in mind that a rectangle has a perimeter of length + length + width + width.

step-by-step explanation:

p = perimeter

l = length

x=width

p = 2l + 2x

p = 2(l+x)     < ==== perimeter of the base of the box.
