Solve the equation algebraically. Round the result to three decimal places. Verify your answer using a graphing utility. $$e^{-2 x}-2 x e^{-2 x}=0$$
The number of bacteria in a culture is increasing according to the law of exponential growth. The initial population is 250 bacteria, and the population after 10 hours is double the population after 1 hour. How many bacteria will there be after 6 hours?
(a) solve for \(P\) and (b) solve for \(t\). $$A=P e^{r t}$$
Solve the equation algebraically. Round the result to three decimal places. Verify your answer using a graphing utility. $$2 x \ln x+x=0$$
A laptop computer that costs $$\$ 1150$$ new has a book value of $$\$ 550$$ after 2 years. (a) Find the linear model \(V=m t+b\). (b) Find the exponential model \(V=a e^{k t}\) (c) Use a graphing utility to graph the two models in the same viewing window. Which model depreciates faster in the first 2 years? (d) Find the book values of the computer after 1 year and after 3 years using each model. (e) Explain the advantages and disadvantages of using each model to a buyer and a seller.
