In a experiment, it was found that the population of a bacterial colony doubles every 10 minutes. The following function represents the number of bacteria in the colony after x minutes. 3(2)^x/10

Which statements are true?

- The expression reveals that the population of the bacterial colony increases by 200% every 10 minutes.

- The expression (1,024)x reveals the approximate rate of increase in the population of the bacterial colony per minute.

- The expression (1.07)x reveals the approximate rate of increase in the population of the bacterial colony per minute.

- The expression (1,024)x reveals the approximate rate of increase in the population of the bacterial colony per hour.

- The expression reveals that the population of the bacterial colony increases by 100% every 10 minutes.

- The expression (0.93)x reveals the approximate rate of increase in the population of the bacterial colony per minute.

Options A and B are true

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question it is given that population of a bacterial colony doubles every 10 minutes and the function that represents the number of bacteria in colony after x minutes is  

Now we check each option given

A. The expression  reveals the population of the bacterial colony increases by 100% every 10 minutes.

Let's check by putting x = 10

Here after 10 minutes initial population which was 3 got doubled to 6. So option A is true.

B. Expression  reveals the approximate rate of increase in the population of the bacterial colony per minute.

Let's solve the expression

Option B is true.

the results from a pre-test for students for the year 2000 and the year 2010 are illustrated in the box plot. what do these results tell us about how students performed on the 29 question pre-test for the two years?

if we compare only the lowest and highest scores between the two years, we might conclude that the students in 2010 did better than the students in 2010. this conclusion seems to follow since the lowest score of 8 in 2010 is greater in value than the lowest score of 6 in 2000. also, the highest score of 28 in 2010 is greater in value than the highest score of 27 in 2000.

but the box portion of the illustration gives us more detailed information. the middle bar in each box shows us that the median score of 20 in 2000 is greater in value than the median score of 17 in 2010. further, we note that the box and whiskers divide the illustration into four pieces. each of these four pieces represents the same portion of students. so, the upper half of the students in 2000 scored in the same score range as the upper one-fourth of the students in 2010, see the illustration at a score of 20.

by considering the upper one-fourth, upper half, and upper three-fourths instead of just the lowest and highest scores, we would conclude that the students as a whole did much better in 2000 than in 2010. we would conclude that as a whole the students in 2010 are less prepared than the students in 2000.

in this section, we discuss box-and-whisker plots and the five key values used in constructing a box-and-whisker plot. the key values are called a five-number summary, which consists of the minimum, first quartile, median, third quartile, and maximum.
