Function:  N(t)=11,800*0.75^{\frac{t}{4}}

Step-by-step explanation:

The population loses 1/4th every 4 seconds, amount of original.

Initial amount of bacteria was 11,880

1/4 = 0.25

Looses 0.25 so that means 1 - 0.25 = 0.75 remaining of total every 4 seconds

We can model using exponential equation of the form:

N(t)=C*I^{\frac{t}{n}}

Where

C is the initial amount (given as 11,880)

I is the remaining factor, we found to be 0.75

n is the seconds it takes to go to 0.75 of its original, n = 4 because it is given in 4 seconds

Now, substituting, we find the equation:

N(t)=11,800*0.75^{\frac{t}{4}}

Answer: 440 grams for 1.54 is the better value
Explanation:
Take the price and divide by the number of grams
1.54 / 440 =0.0035 per gram
1.26 / 340 =0.003705882 per gram
0.0035 per gram < 0.003705882 per gram

F=ma

where F=force

m=mass

a=acceleration

Here,

F=4300

a=3.3m/s2

m=F/a

    =4300/3.3

    =1303.03kg

Approximately it is aqual to 1300kg

The wood before starting =12 feet

Left wood=6 feet

Wood used till now=12-6=6 feet

Picture frame built till now= 6/(3/4)

=8 pieces

Therefore, till now 8 pieces have been made.

30% of 420 are first year students

first year students = (30/100 )*420

=126 students

Student who are not in first year = 420-126

=294 students
