Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
let x be the population
so we have ,
2x= 6h
?= 3 days or 3×24h
by cross multiplication we have
2x× 72h= 6h×?
?= 2x×72/6 = 24x
So, in three days the bacteria will b 24 times current population.
Answer:
<h2>1. x = 4</h2><h2>2. x = 20</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
1.
ΔABC and ΔAJK are similar (AA). Therefore the sides are in proportion:

We have:
AC = 1 + 4 = 5
AJ = 1
AB = 1 + x
AK = 1
Substitute:

<em>subtract 1 from both sides</em>

2.
ΔVUT and ΔVMN are similar (AA). Therefore the sides are in proportion:

We hve:
VU = x + 8
VM = x
VT = 49
VN = 49 - 14 = 35
Substitute:
<em>cross multiply</em>
<em>use the distributive property a(c + b) = ab + ac</em>
<em>subtract 35x from both sides</em>
<em>divide both sides by 14</em>

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Yes, it's reasonable.
What you are doing is solving the question by rounding. You come up with an answer. Suppose you loose the decimal somewhere and you get 0.36? Is that reasonable? Do you just write the answer in the provided blank and move on. What now?
You get it wrong?!!
But your estimate should be about 9/3 = 3. Now you look at your calculator with great misgivings, because it made a mistake. Did it or did you? Well ultimately you did, but you have to blame something. So the calculator takes the heat.
Who knows? Maybe the decimal doesn't work. It's stuck or something. In any event you should be aware that there's no way the answer could be 0.36 when you estimate it to be 3.
G = the cost of one pack of gum
LeBron : 6 - 4g
James : 5 - 2g
what they both have after buying gum..
6 - 4g + 5 - 2g = 11 - 6g
(arrange the data set from least to greatest)
0, 0, 2, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8
(find the median: *the middle number*)
Median: 2.5
Lower quartile: 1
Upper quartile: 5
Interquartile range : upper quartile - lower quartile = answer
Interquartile range: 5 - 1 = 4
So the IQR or interquartile for the following data set is 4.
