We have the equation of the line as follows:
y = 0.5x + 79
We want to calculate the melting point (the y value) of DNA with 50% gc content (the x value).
The gc content represents the value of x in the equation, so to calculate the melting point (y), we will simply substitute the x with 50 in the equation of the line as follows:
melting point = 0.5(50) + 79 = 25 + 79 = 104 degrees
Answer:
t < 9
Step-by-step explanation:
12 > t + 3
We can subtract 3 from both sides getting us 9 > t.
Volume = length * width * height
Volume = 4.1 * 5.9 * 7.2 ≈ 4 * 6 * 7 = 168
Volume ≈ 168 in³

Apples . . . . . 40 pounds
Oranges . . . . 5 pounds
Ratio of apples to oranges = 40 pounds / 5 pounds = 8 / 1 .
