Answer:

B. Place the compass at P and draw an arc of length OP across the circle.

Below is the diagram for help.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given with an already constructed circle of diameter $PQ$ and $OP$ as radius.

To draw a regular hexagon(six-sided), we need to make first cut on the circle of an arc equal to radius of the circle taking any point of the diameter as center

So here, We will consider $P$ as a center and take an arc of length $OP$ and make a cut on the circle.

This would be the first step and James need to repeat the same steps by considering the newly formed cut as center each time.

Can someone help me?

We can Notice that : Number of Cells growth is a Geometric Sequence

That is : 1 , 2 , 4 , 8 , 16. . . . .

We know that : nth term in a Geometric Sequence is = a.rⁿ⁻¹

where a is the first term

r is the common ratio, which is given by ratio of 2nd term to 1st term

For the above Sequence, a = 1 and r = 2

Given : nth term over 1000

⇒ 1.2ⁿ⁻¹ = 1024

⇒ 2ⁿ⁻¹ = 2¹⁰

⇒ n - 1 = 10

⇒ n = 11

We can Notice that : Number of Hours is a Arithmetic Sequence

That is : 0 , 3 , 6 , 9 , 12

We know that : nth term in a Arithmetic Sequence is = a + (n - 1)d

where a is the first term

r is the common difference, which is given by difference between 2nd term and 1st term

For the above Sequence, a = 0 and r = 3 - 0 = 3

we need to find the number of hours, which is when : n = 11

⇒ 0 + (11 - 1)3

⇒ 10(3)

⇒ 30

⇒ It will take 30 hours to have over 1000 bacteria

At what value of x do the graphs of the equations below intersect?

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

You would find a value of y to plug into either of the equations. For example, I chose the equation 2x - y = 6. When I set it equal to y, I got y = 2x - 6
Now that I know what y is equal to, I plugged it into the second equation to get 5x + 10 (2x - 6) = -10
You then would calculate for x.
Your end result should be x = 2, which is the point that the two equations intersect

This works because the two equations are set equal to each other, making them share a common value between them.

You can also plug both of these equations into a graphing calculator, and on the graph select the command to calculate the intersection.

Hope this helped!
