Let's say the number of bacteria you initially have is "a."  The number of bacteria doubles every twelve minutes, which means that it doubles 5 times in an hour.  You have(2)(2)(2)(2)(2)a=a∗2^5=32a at the end of the hour.  You started out with only a.  This means your ratio is 32a/a = 32.

Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the number of bacteria at the initial time.

At 12 minutes = 2 X

At 24 minutes = 4X

At 36 minutes = 8X

At 48 minutes = 16X

At 60 minutes = 32X

The ratio between the final and the initial instant will be: 32X / X = 32

A. find the value of a. B. Find the value of the marked angles.
Marat540 [252]

The marked angles are opposite angles, and as such they have the same measure. So, we have

6a+11 = 2a+83

Subtract 2a and 11 from both sides to get

4a = 72

Divide both sides by 4 to get

a = \dfrac{72}{4} = 18

Now that we know the value of a, we can compute the measure of the angles. We can also verify that the solution we found is correct by verifying that both expressions actually give the same result:

6a+11 = 6\cdot 18 + 11 = 119

2a+83 = 2\cdot 18 + 83 = 119

Can you please help me?

So for this you just want to divide 4/5 by 9/10 because it is the opposite of the equation.

9/10 / 4/5

To divide fractions, you just multiply and reverse the second fraction.

For example:

9/10 * 5/4

Now you can just normally multiply.

45/40

Or, simplified,

9/8

(Or 1 1/8)

Please help i can not figure it out
Alisiya [41]
To solve this problem you need to figure out the volume of the sipping container, and the volume of the tissue box. 
39*19.5*19.5=14,829.75
6.5*6.5*6.5=274.63

In order to figure out how many fits you need to divide
14,829.75/274.63=53.99

The maximum number that you can fit is the box is 53.

Hope this helps
