Answer:
Equation:
2(a+9) = a/2
Solve:
The umber is:
-12
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation:
2(a+9) = a/2
Solve:
2*a + 2*9 = a/2
2a + 18 = a/2
2a - a/2 = -18
4a/2 - a/2 = -18
3a/2 = -18
a = -18*2/3
a = -12
Check:
2(-12+9) = -12/2
2(-3) = -12/2 = -6
Answer:
Hello, for the second question, you can actually form a triangle from the line. From there, you can see the height (aka y) will be easier to solve. I hope this helps!
Ans: 1) 47.5
2) 3.4
Step-by-step explanation:
All of the side lenghts of the smaller triangles have been multiplied by 2 which guarantees side side side similarities. (basically similar angles shows congruence when their sides are proportional)
Answer:
Hour 3
4 * 2 = 8
Hour 4
8 * 2 = 16
Hour 6
32 * 2 = 64
Hour 7
64 * 2 = 128
Hour 12
2048 * 2 = 4096
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that initially there is a bacterium that doubles every hour, so let's calculate what happens in the first 12 hours every hour.
Hour 0
one
Hour 1
1 * 2 = 2
Hour 2
2 * 2 = 4
Hour 3
4 * 2 = 8
Hour 4
8 * 2 = 16
Hour 5
16 * 2 = 32
Hour 6
32 * 2 = 64
Hour 7
64 * 2 = 128
Hour 8
128 * 2 = 256
Hour 9
256 * 2 = 512
Hour 10
512 * 2 = 1024
Hour 11
1024 * 2 = 2048
Hour 12
2048 * 2 = 4096
We can deduce that the growth of the bacteria is:
2 ^ n
where n is the # of time that has passed
