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.

Which expression is NOT equal to 125? (1 point)
DENIUS [597]
Choice 1:
= 5 * [5^3 / (2/5)]^2
= by looking at the equation, it's kinda not equal to 125

choice 2:
= [5^3 / 5^4]^-3
= 5^-9 / 5^-12
= 5^(-9 - -12)
= 5^3
= 125

choice 3:
= 5^-2 / 5^-5
= 5^(-2 - -5)
= 5^3
= 125

choice 4:
= 5 * 5^5/5^3
= 5 * 5^(5-3)
= 5 * 5^2
= 5^3
= 125

So the expression that is not equal to 125 is:
<span>5 times the quotient 5 cubed over two-fifths, raised to the second power</span>

9m 7.2m 3m find the volume
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

<u>The volume of the prism is 97.2 m³</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's recall that the volume of a triangular prism is base * height and the base is a triangle, then the formula is as follows:

Volume = 1/2 (base of the triangle * height of the triangle) * height of the prism

Replacing with the real values, we have:

Volume = 1/2 (7.2 * 9) * 3

Volume = 32.4 * 3 = 97.2 m³

<u>The volume of the prism is 97.2 m³</u>
