Well, I had to read twince to understand and Find out the answer!:D
XD
The answer would be 10% or 0%one of both
 :Because if you disinfected it once and what was left (if bottle is correct) is 10% of bacteria.
And you swiped it again, then there should be 0% of bacteria,because
 90%(first swipe)
=equals 10% left
 then another swipe
90% -the 10% left would mathamatically equal 10% Dont you think?
Im sure, not positive, but sure.
Am I right?
Hope this helped!

What is the length of side x? (possibly use similar triangles)
weeeeeb [17]
Law of Sines

\frac{sin(A)}{a} =  \frac{sin(B)}{b}

\frac{sin(90)}{14.6} =  \frac{sin(45)}{x}

Cross multiply

x*sin(90) = 14.6sin(45)

x = 14.6sin(45)

x = <span>10.3</span>

Find the measure of the angle indicated in bold.
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

100

Step-by-step explanation:

12x - 4 + 13x + 9 = 180

25x + 5 = 180

25x = 175

x = 7

Use the zero product property to find the solutions to the equation 2x2 + x-1 = 2
algol [13]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2x² + x - 1 = 2 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

2x² + x - 3 = 0

Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term

product = 2 × - 3 = - 6 and sum = + 1

The factors are - 2 and + 3

Use these factors to split the x- term

2x² - 2x + 3x - 3 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

2x(x - 1) + 3(x - 1) = 0 ← factor out (x - 1) from each term

(x - 1)(2x + 3) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 1 = 0 ⇒ x = 1

2x + 3 = 0 ⇒ 2x = - 3 ⇒ x = - \frac{3}{2}

a flag is in the shape of a triangle and has an area of 6 ft. squared find the length of the base if it's height is 4 ft.
strojnjashka [21]

The area of a triangle can be shown in the equation Area=1/2(base)(height). Since you are given area and height, you can just solve for the base.

6=1/2(base)(4) --->  6=2(base) ---> base=3
