Answer:

growing at a rate of 200% an hour

Step-by-step explanation:

I am going to assume that binary fission occurs 4 times an hour.

I need the equation first. 4 hours, 1 time an hour per bacteria.

I'm confused a bit, you were kinda vague. Contact me if you can give me more info, and I will be happy to help.

Find the slope of the line(s) passing through the given points. Then tell whether the line(s) rises, falls, is horizontal, or is
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

21) falls

22) vertical

23) rises

24) rises

25) falls

26) horizontal

27) rises

28) horizontal

29) falls

Step-by-step explanation:

We shall use the slope formula m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} to calculate the slopes of the line passing through each pair of point.

21: (3,1), (2,6)

The slope is m=\frac{6-1}{2-3}

\implies m=\frac{5}{-1}=-5.

A negative slope means this line falls

22) (-2,5), (-2,4)

The slope is m=\frac{4-5}{-2- -2}=\frac{-1}{0}= undefined

An undefined slope means this line is vertical

23) The given point is (0,8) (2,10)

The slope is m=\frac{10-8}{2-0}=\frac{2}{2}=+1

A positive slope means this line rises

24)  The points are (-3,-3), (3,1)

The slope is m=\frac{1--3}{3--3}=\frac{4}{6}=+\frac{2}{3}

A positive slope means this line rises

25) The points are: (5,0) (6,-2)

Slope: m=\frac{-2-0}{6-5}=\frac{-2}{1}=-2

A negative slope means this line falls

26)  The points are (-2,-8) , (5,-8).

Slope: m=\frac{-8--8}{5--2}=\frac{0}{7}=0

A zero slope means this line is horizontal

27) The points are: (-1,2) , (5,3)

Slope: m=\frac{3-2}{5--1}=+\frac{1}{6}

A positive slope means this line rises

28) The points are: (\frac{1}{2},4), (-1,4)

Slope: m=\frac{4-4}{-1-\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{0}{\frac{1}{2}}=0

A zero slope means the line is horizontal

29) The points are: (4,\frac{1}{2}), (5,\frac{1}{4})

Slope: m=\frac{\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{2}}{5-4}=-\frac{1}{4}

A negative slope means this line falls.

40 POINTS PLS HELP IMEDIATLY
MakcuM [25]
Part A)
If f(x) - 3 is the new equation, it means there is a vertical translation of f(x) down 3 units. The y-intercept will decrease by 3 units. Areas of increasing on the function may be lessened as the function is being translated down 3 units. The areas of decrease will increase because the function is being translated down. End behaviour will not change from a translation as long as the function is continuous at each end, (not a finite function with end points). The evenness or oddness of f(x) will not change either.

Part B:
The y-intercept will be flipped horizontally about the x-axis and multiplied by 2. This will mean that if the y-intercept was positive, it will now be negative and vice versa. The increasing and decreasing regions of the graph will be flipped, so anywhere f(x) was positive will now be negative and vice versa. They will also be double what they were before because all values are multiplied by 2. The end behaviour will switch. If f(x) was from Quad1->Quad3 for example, it will now be Quad2->Quad4 because of the flip at the x-axis. The evenness and oddness of the function will not change seeing as the degree of f(x) is not affected.

Of all the rectangles with a perimeter of 168 feet, find the dimension of the one with the largest area
dolphi86 [110]
<span>The rectangle with the largest area with a given perimeter will be a square - so the sides will be equal. So we need to find length of side, L, such that 4*L=168. L = 168/4 L=42. So the dimensions of the rectangle that maximizes the area with a perimiter of 168 feet are: 42 feet by 24 feet.</span>

Whiskers the cat weighs 2 2/3 kg. Piglo weighs 4kg. For each question , write a myipulcation and a division equation, decide whe
Liula [17]

Answer:

1) x= 3/2=  1 1/2

2) x=  2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

1)How many times as heavy as  Whiskers is  Piglio?

a) Write a multiplication equation for the question.

2 2/3 kg  * [x]= 4kg

b) Write a division equation for the question.

4/ 2 (2/3) = x

c) Is the answer greater than 1 or less than 1?

Ans) Greater than 1                      

d) Find the answer

4/ 8/3= x

x= 3/2= 1 1/2

Pigilo is 1 1/2 times as heavy as whiskers

2)How many times as heavy as Piglio is Whiskers?

a) Write a multiplication equation for the question.

4 kg  * [x]=  2 2/3 kg

b) Write a division equation for the question.

2 (2/3)/4  = x

c) Is the answer greater than 1 or less than 1?

Ans) Less than 1                      

d) Find the answer

 8/3/4= x

  8/3 * 1/4= x

   2/3= x

Whiskers is 2/3 times as heavy as Pigilo.
