Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that at time t_0 we have x mold cells. We are told that after 12 minutes the amount present is double. That is a t= t_0+12 we have 2x cells. Then, at t = t_0+24 we have (2x)*2 = 4x. We can continue as follows

t: t_0+36 we have (4x)*2 = 8x.

t: t_0+48 we have (8x)*2 = 16x

t: t_0+60 (one hour later) we have (16x)*2 = 32x.

So after one hour from now we have 32x cells.

10 2.5 16 4 ? 7.5 48 12 Which statement explains how to find the number of minutes it takes to bike 7.5 miles? Find the ratio of
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

Find the ratio of minutes to miles, 4:1. Multiply 7.5 by 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Minutes: 10 || 16 || ?  || 48

-----Miles: 2.5 || 4 || 7.5 || 12

Required

Which statements solve for the missing value?

First, we need to calculate the ratio of minutes to mile

Ratio = \frac{Minutes}{Mile}

When minutes = 16; mile = 4

So, we have:

Ratio = \frac{16}{4}

Ratio = 4

Next, we multiply the ratio by 7.5

Minutes = Ratio * 7.5

Minutes =4 * 7.5

Minutes = 30

<em>Hence, option B answers the question.</em>

If the sum of the even integers between 1 and k, inclusive, is equal to 2k, what is the value of k?
lorasvet [3.4K]
You can make a start by putting together an expression for the sum of the even integers between 1 and k inclusive.

Let S be the sum of the even integers between 1 and k inclusive.

Then:
<span><span>S=2+4+6+⋯+(k−2)+k</span></span>

As k is even, you can say r = 2k and so:

<span><span>S=2(1+2+3+⋯+(r−1)+r)</span></span>

<span>Now the sum of the first </span><span>r</span><span> numbers is well-known, it's the </span><span>r</span>th triangle number and we have:

<span><span>1+2+3+⋯+(r−1)+r=<span><span>r(r+1)/</span>2</span></span></span>
<span>Now we can keep it simple and say </span><span><span>2k=4r </span></span><span>and so:</span>

<span><span>S=2(1+2+3+⋯+(r−1)+r)=4r=2<span><span>r(r+1)</span>2</span>=r(r+1)</span></span>

<span>So you can build a quadratic in </span><span>r</span><span> and so get </span><span>k.</span>
