5. A research student is working with a culture of bacteria that doubles in size every 90 minutes. The initial population count was 1225 bacteria. Rounding to five decimal places, write an exponential function, \( P(t)=P_{0} e^{k t} \), representing this situation. To the nearest whole number, what is the population size after 5 hours?

Given the function with the equation \( k(x)=\frac{-6}{x+2}-2 \) : \( 7.1 \quad \) Write the equations of the asymptotes of \( k \).

Find the function that is finally graphed after the following transformations are applied to the graph of \( y=\sqrt{x} \) in the order listed. (1) Shift up 7 units (2) Reflect about the \( x \)-axis (3) Reflect about the \( y \)-axis \( y= \)

Given \( f(x)=\frac{-2}{x}-2 \), Answer the following questions: .1 Write down the equations of the asymptotes of \( f(x) \). 2 Draw a neat sketch graph of \( f(x) \), clearly indicate the asymptotes and the intercepts with the axes. .3 Write down the domain and range of \( f(x) \).

If \( (-1,8) \) is a point on the graph of \( y=f(x) \), which of the following must be on the graph of \( y=f(-x) \) ? \( (8,1) \) \( (-1,-8) \) Choose the correct answer below. \( (1,8) \) \( (-8,-1) \)

(a) Express the distance \( d \) from \( P \) to the origin as a function of \( x \). \( d(x)=\sqrt{\mathrm{x}^{4}-3 \mathrm{x}^{2}+4} \) (Simplify your answer. Type an exact answer, using radicals as needed.) (b) What is \( d \) if \( x=0 \) ? If \( x=0 \), the distance \( d \) is (Type an integer or decimal rounded to two decimal places as needed.)
