In a lab experiment, 2000 bacteria are placed in a petri dish. The conditions are such
that the number of bacteria is able to double every 23 hours. How many bacteria
would there be after 26 hours, to the nearest whole number?

Prove (a) cosh2(x) − sinh2(x) = 1 and (b) 1 − tanh 2(x) = sech 2(x). solution (a) cosh2(x) − sinh2(x) = ex + e−x 2 2 − 2 = e2x + 2 + e−2x 4 − = 4 = . (b) we start with the identity proved in part (a): cosh2(x) − sinh2(x) = 1. if we divide both sides by cosh2(x), we get 1 − sinh2(x) cosh2(x) = 1 or 1 − tanh 2(x) = .

Which of the following would be a correct step in proving that triangle abc is congruent to triangle cda? a. use a protractor to measure the angles and show that all the corresponding angles are equal in measure. this will allow you to prove congruence by aaa. b. show that segment ab is parallel to segment cd and segment ad is parallel to segment cb. this will allow you to prove congruency by asa. c. show that is segment ab is perpendicular to segment ad. this will allow you to prove congruence by sas. d. none of the above.
