    Calculating Population Growth Rate using Derivatives

    Homework Statement A population of 500 bacteria is introduced into a culture and grows in number according to the equation P(t)=500(1+(4t/(50+t2), where t is measured in hours. Find P'(2), an interpret the results. Homework Equations The Attempt at a Solution I used the product...

    What Sub-Structure Does a 369.3 Mass Indicate in Cholesterol LCMS Analysis?

    387.3. I think I actually understand it now. because the LCMS will show the mass +1 and then the bond with water was broken, which caused the weight to be 18 less than what we expected.?

    What Sub-Structure Does a 369.3 Mass Indicate in Cholesterol LCMS Analysis?

    Homework Statement Our assignment was to determine the structure, or sub-structure of our mass observed in the LCMS result. The number we got was 369.3. I am not really sure what to do with this at all. She gave us the structure of cholesterol, but I'm not sure where to add things on...

    Find f'(x): 1/(1-4X) Homework Solution

    Homework Statement Use the definition of a derivitive to find f'(x). f(x)=1/(1-4X) Homework Equations Lim as h approaches 0 [f(x+h)-f(x)]/h The Attempt at a Solution I know that the answer is supposed to be -1/(1-4X)2 but I keep getting 4/(1-4X)2. This is what I have done so far (I...
