The number $75$ is decreased by $40\%$, then the result is again decreased by $40\%$. What is the final result?

To get 75 decreased by 40% you subtract 40% from 100%.
100 - 40 = 60

So to get 60% of 75 you multiply .60 by 75.
.60 x 75 = 45

You have $45 now, but you have to decrease it by 40% again. You do the same process, so we need to multiply .60 by 45.
.60 x 45 = 27

So, the final result is $27.

14

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to add 3 to the first of the two numbers. for example 5+3=8 so the answer would be 58, and because you're decreasing each number by 10 you would have to add 1+3=4 so tha answer must be 14.

4. Suppose that Peculiar Purples and Outrageous Oranges are two different and unusual types of bacteria. Both types multiply thr
Viktor [21]

Answer:

Peculiar purples would be more abundant

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that eculiar Purples and Outrageous Oranges are two different and unusual types of bacteria. Both types multiply through a mechanism in which each single  bacterial cell splits into four. Time taken for one split is 12 m for I one and 10 minutes for 2nd

The function representing would be

i) P=P_0 (4)^{t/12} for I bacteria where t is no of minutes from start.

ii) P=P_0 (4)^{t/10} for II bacteria where t is no of minutes from start. P0 is the initial count of bacteria.

a) Here P0 =3, time t = 60 minutes.

i) I bacteria P = 3(4)^{5} =3072

ii) II bacteria P = 3(4)^{4} =768

b) Since II is multiplying more we find that I type will be more abundant.

The difference in two hours would be

3(4)^{10}- 3(4)^{8} =2949120

c) i) P=P_0 (4)^{t/12} for I bacteria where t is no of minutes from start.

ii) P=P_0 (4)^{t/10} for II bacteria where t is no of minutes from start. P0 is the initial count of bacteria.

d) At time 36 minutes we have t = 36

Peculiar purples would be

i) P=3 (4)^{36/12}=192

The rate may not be constant for a longer time.  Hence this may not be accurate.

e) when splits into 2, we get

P=P_o (2^t) where P0 is initial and t = interval of time
