The doubling time of a population of flies is 5 hours. by what factor does the population increase in 24 hours? by what factor does the population increase in 3 weeks?

So the answer is after 24 hours population = 27.86 times

and after 3 weeks population = 2.21×10^30 times

Step-by-step explanation:

If the population of flies doubles in 5 hours then the series will be an exponential series represented by

New population = Initial population ×

So population after 24 hours

Now we have to calculate the population of flies after 3 weeks

the quotient is 4x^2 - 27x + 167 with a remainder of -996

step-by-step explanation:

in synthetic division, use -6 as the divisor and use the coefficients {4, -3, 5, 6}:

-6     )   4     -3     5     6

                -24   162 -1002

          4   -27   167   -996

thus, the quotient is 4x^2 - 27x + 167 with a remainder of -996.

note:   your "4x°-3x+5x+6" is ambiguous / incomplete.   i had to assume that you meant '4x^3 - 3x^2 + 5x + 6."

{3 + i, 3 - i, 3, -1}
