3) Carol, Xavier and Keela drank 580, 1160 and 1260 mL of water, respectively.

<h3>How to resolve word problems involving linear equations</h3>

In this question we find word problems involving linear equations, in each case we need to understand the statement, derive mathematical equations and looking for corresponding solutions by algebraic means. Now we proceed to solve for each case:

Case 1

A variable is found herein and we need to resolve on this linear equation: (x - A number)

(x + 8) / 4 = 1 + (1 / 3) · x

(1 / 4) · x + 2 = 1 + (1 / 3) · x

1 = (1 / 12) · x

x = 12

The number is 12.

Case 2

A variable is found herein and we need to resolve on this linear equation: (x - Number of passengers per row)

30 · x + 12 = 222

30 · x = 210

x = 7

There are 7 passengers in a row.

Case 3

Three variables are found herein and we need to resolve on these linear equations: (x - Water consumed by Carol, y - Water consumed by Xavier, z - Water consumed by Keela)

z = 2 · x                        (1)

y = z + 100                   (2)

x + y + z = 3000           (3)

Finally, we find the solution of this system:

x + (z + 100) + z = 3000

x + 2 · z = 2900

x + 4 · x = 2900

5 · x = 2900

x = 580 mL

z = 1160 mL

y = 1260 mL

Carol, Xavier and Keela drank 580, 1160 and 1260 mL of water, respectively.

A population of bacteria is 8500 on Day 1, 9350 on Day 2, and 10285 on Day 3.
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

<em>The population on 30th day will be </em><em>134836</em><em>.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a case of exponential growth. The general form of exponential function is,

y=ab^x

where, a and b are constants.

The data points from the question are (1,8500),(2,9350),(3,10285)

Putting the values in the function,

for x=1, y=8500

8500=ab  ----------1

for x=2, y=9350

9350=ab^2  ------2

Dividing equation 2 by 1,

\Rightarrow \dfrac{ab^2}{ab}=\dfrac{9350}{8500}=1.1

\Rightarrow b=1.1

Putting the value of b in equation 1,

\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{8500}{1.1}=7727.27

Now the function becomes,

y=7727.27(1.1)^x

Putting x=30, we get

y=7727.27(1.1)^{30}=134836.2\approx 134836
