The number of microorganisms that I will have after 10 days would be: 245.41 microoganisms.

<h3>How to calculate the number of microorganisms that I will have after 10 days?</h3>

To calculate the number of microorganisms that I will have after 10 days, I must perform the following operations:

We need to find 37% of 55 as shown below:

  • 55 ÷ 100 = 0.55
  • 0.55 x 37% = 20.35
  • 55 + 20.35 = 75.35

So after 2 days I will have 75.35 microorganisms.

  • 75.35 ÷ 100 = 0.75
  • 0.7535 x 37% = 27.87
  • 75.35 + 27.87 = 103.22

On the fourth day I will have: 103.22 microorganisms.

  • 103.22 ÷ 100 = 1.0322
  • 1.0322 x 37% = 38.19
  • 103.22 + 38.19 = 141.41

On the sixth day I will have 141.41 microorganisms.

  • 141.41 ÷ 100 = 1.4141
  • 1.4141 x 37% = 52.32
  • 141.41 + 52.32 = 193,73

On the eighth day I will have 193.73 microorganisms.

  • 193.73 ÷ 100 = 1.9373
  • 1.9373 x 37% = 71.68
  • 193.73 + 71.68 = 265.41

On the tenth day I will have 245.41 microoganisms.

Given the figure below, calculate the area
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

<em>1+√3</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the triangle = 1/2 * base * height

Area of the triangle = 1/2 * AC * BD

We need to get AC

AC = AD+DC

Get base AD using SOH CAH TOA

tan 45 = 4/AD

AD = 4/tan45

AD = 4/1

AD = 4

Get DC

tan 30 = 4/DC

DC = 4/tan 30

DC = 4/(1/√3)

DC = 4√3

AC = 4 + 4√3

AC = 4(1+√3)

Get the Area of the triangle

<em>Area = 1/2 * 4 *  4(1+√3)</em>

<em>Area of the triangle = 1+√3</em>
