Divide 25 by 4 and you get 6 with a remainder of 1. That remainder of 1 can go over 4 to create the final answer of 6 and 1/4.
X + y = 12
x - y = 4
-----------------add
2x = 16
x = 8
x - y = 4
8 - y = 4
y = 4
answer
two numbers: 8 and 4
doule check
sum = 8 + 4 = 12
difference = 8 - 4 = 4
That makes no sense what are we supposed to figure out
Answer:
x= -18
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for
x
by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable.
Answer:
1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find how long it takes for the bacteria to lose half its size. We can do this by taking one point of the bacteria and finding how long it takes to go to half its size. When t=0, 9300 * (1/64)^t = 9300 * 1 = 9300 as anything to the power of 0 is 1. Therefore, we can solve for t when the end result of the bacteria is 9300/2= 4650, making our equation
4650 = 9300 * (1/64)^t
divide both sides by 9300
1/2 = (1/64)^t
First, we can tell that 2^6 = 64*. Because of this, we can say that (1/2)^6 = 1^6/2^6 = 1/64, so (1/64)^(1/6) = 1/2. We know this because
(1/2)^6 = 64
take the 6th root of both sides
(1/2) = (64)^(1/6)
. This means that t=1/6, so the bacterial culture loses 1/2 of its size every 1/6 seconds
* if this is harder to figure out, e.g. 3 and 729, we can plug (log₃729) into a calculator
