Answer:
A culture started with 5000 bacteria. after 4 hours, it grew to 6000.
=> Increasing rate = difference/time = (6000 - 5000)/4 = 250 bacteria/hour
=> The number of bacteria after 17 hours:
N = 5000 + 250 x 17 = 9250 bacteria
Hope this helps!

Answer:
13 , 17 and 25 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length of the first side be x cm.
Then the second is x+4 and the third is 2x-1 cm long.
As the perimeter = 55 cm we have the equation:
x + x + 4 + 2x - 1 = 55
4x + 3 = 55
4x = 52
x = 13 cm.
$9.74
I like to do these equations backwards and multiply the first number by the opposite of it. ( think 1- the percent as a decimal) however, you can do this by converting the percent into a decimal and then subtracting that from the original number.
Have a great day!
Answer: 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
y = rx
substitute numbers in and solve for r
if
y = 10
x = 4
then
10 = r4
r = 10/4 = 2.5
this works for all the other numbers and always gives r = 2.5
