It is given that the bacteria in a colony doubles every 8 hours.

To find the population of bacteria 24 hours from now, we need to find the population of bacteria after every 8 hours.

The present population of the bacteria is 9315.

After 8 hours, the bacteria becomes double. So, the number of bacteria becomes 9315 x 2 = 18630.

Again after 8 hours, the bacteria becomes 18630 x 2 = 37260.

Again after 8 hours, the bacteria becomes 37260 x 2 = 74520.

Thus, after 24 hours from now, the population of the bacteria is 74520.

In the diagram shown, lines m and n are
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If two line 'm' and 'n' are parallel and a transversal line 't' i intersecting these lines at two distinct points,

Sum of interior consecutive angles should be 180°.

(Property of the angles formed between parallel lines and a transversal line)

Therefore, 114° + 64° = 180°

178° = 180°

Which is not true.

Therefore, lines 'm' and 'n' are not the parallel lines.
