A culture of yeast doubles in size every four hours. If the yeast population is estimated to be three million now, what will it
Bess [88]
It doubles every 4 hours, so after 24 hours there will be 6 doublings.
2^6 = 64
So, the population will be (3,000,000 * 64) or 192,000,000 in 24 hours.
The answer is B.

Arrange the systems of equations that have a single solution in Increasing order of the x-values in their solutions.
NemiM [27]

Complete question is;

Arrange the systems of equations that have a single solution in Increasing order of the x-values in their solutions.

1) 2x + y = 10

x - 3y = -2

2) x + 2y = 5

2x + y = 4

3) x + 3y = 5

6x - y = 11

4) 2x + y = 10

-6x - 3y = -2

Answer:

Arranging the systems in increasing value of x gives;

System 2, system 3, system 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 2x + y = 10 - - - (eq 1)

x - 3y = -2 - - - (eq 2)

Multiply eq 1 by 3 to get;

6x + 3y = 30

Add it to eq 2 to get;

7x = 28

x = 28/7

x = 4

2) x + 2y = 5 - - - (eq 1)

2x + y = 4 - - - (eq 2)

Multiply eq 2 by 2 to get;

4x + 2y = 8

Subtract eq 1 from it to get;

3x = 3

x = 3/3

x = 1

3) x + 3y = 5 - - - (eq 1)

6x - y = 11 - - - (eq 2)

Multiply eq 2 by 3 to get;

18x - 3y = 33

Add to eq(1) to get;

19x = 38

x = 38/19

x = 2

4) 2x + y = 10 - - - (eq 1)

-6x - 3y = -2 - - - (eq 2)

Make y the subject in eq 1 to get;

y = 10 - 2x

Put in eq (2);

-6x - 3(10 - 2x) = -2

-6x - 30 + 6x = -2

0 = 0

Thus,no solution exists.

Arranging the systems in increasing value of x gives;

System 2, system 3, system 1

When the Defense Department ordered 132 new airplanes, the cost per plane was estimated to be $580 million. A cut in the order t
aliina [53]

Answer:

C. The loss of economies of scale

By definition represent "the cost advantages that enterprises obtain due to their scale of operation, with cost per unit of output decreasing with increasing scale" and thats the corrct option since if we increase the order we have a lower price.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the following options we analyze one by one to select the correct one

A. A move to minimum efficient scale

By definition the minimum efficient scale (MES) or efficient scale of production is "the lowest point where the plant can produce such that its long run average costs are minimized" but thats not the case since the department order new planes and the costs are not minimized .

B. The law of diminishing returns

The law of diminishing marginal returns says that "at some point, adding an additional factor of production results in smaller increases in output" but that's not the case since we don't have smaller increases in output.

C. The loss of economies of scale

By definition represent "the cost advantages that enterprises obtain due to their scale of operation, with cost per unit of output decreasing with increasing scale" and thats the corrct option since if we increase the order we have a lower price.

D. An increase in fixed cost

That's False since on this case we don't have a fixed cost, the cost on this case depend on the size of the order.
