Answer:

<h3>a1=1640/2187</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Geometric sequence formula: an=a1 r^n-1  </h3><h3>s8=1640=a1 3^8-1</h3><h3>1640=a1 3^8-1</h3><h3>1640=a1 3^7</h3><h3>1640=a1 2187</h3><h3>a1=1640/2187</h3>

Algebra help needed!!

The population triples ( P × 3 ) every ten minutes...

So if ten minutes is reached there will be 1,200 bacteria.

Edited - missed the question
** The units for time should be in minutes.

P = 400 × 3^(t/10)

at t = 0 ; P = 400
at t = 10 ; P = 1,200

When P = 600
600 = 400 × 3^(t/10)
6/4 = 3^(t/10)
Log(3/2) = Log(3^(t/10))
power rule
Log(3/2) = (t/10) Log(3)
10 × Log(3/2)/Log(3) = t

3.69 minutes the population will be at 600 bacteria
Unites for time are in minutes.

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (-5 7) and is parallel to the line x-5y=15
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have same slope.

y = mx + b

Slope = m  & y-intercept = b

x - 5y = 15

   -5y = -x + 15

      y = \frac{-1}{-5}x + \frac{15}{-5}\\\\

y = \frac{1}{5}x - 3

so, slope = 1/5   ; (-5 , 7)

y -y1 = m(x -x1)

y - 7 = \frac{1}{5}(x- [-5])\\\\y - 7 =\frac{1}{5}(x + 5)\\\\y - 7 = \frac{1}{5}x+5*\frac{1}{5}\\\\y - 7 =\frac{1}{5}x+1\\\\y =\frac{1}{5}x+1+7\\\\y=\frac{1}{5}x + 8
