5 x 3²⁴  bacteria will there be after one day.

What is exponents?

Exponentiation could be a calculation, written as bⁿ, involving 2 numbers, the bottom b and also the exponent or power n, and pronounced as "b to the n".

Consider what is actually happening in the question.

You begin with 5 bacteria, and after 1 hour it has tripled so you now have

5x 3=15.

Next hour, it triples again so you now have 5 x 3 x 3=45

You can see the pattern shows that the number of bacteria is multiplying every hour by a factor of 3. An exponent denotes how many times we are multiplying a number by itself, for example: 3⁴  means we are multiplying the number 3 a total of 4 times (3 x 3 x 3 x 3).

Therefore the question is requiring us to triple the number of bacteria every hour for 24 hours, which means we are multiplying by 3 a total of 24 times. This gives us:

n x 324 where n is the number of bacteria you begin with.

Since you begin with 1 bacteria, the solution is 5 x 3²⁴.

Hence 5 x 3²⁴  bacteria will there be after one day.

Lines a and b in the figure above are parallel. What is the value of p?
elena-s [515]
It will be c- 20:
4q and 2(q+30) have to equal the same therefore q=30 which makes both these equations equal.
3p + 4q then have to equal 180 as they are on a straight line so you know q=30 so 4x30=120 so 180-120=60
Then 60/3=20 and that is your answer.
Hope this helps :)
