Hey!
------------------------------------------------
Steps To Solve:
-1/12d = -3
~Multiply 12/-1 to both sides
-1/12 * 12/-1 = -3 * 12/-1
~Simplify
d = 36
------------------------------------------------
Hence, d equals 36!

Answer:
(9a^2b^2(2ab - 3b + 4a).
Step-by-step explanation:
Take out the GCF.
The GCF is 9a^2b^2 so the factors are
(9a^2b^2(2ab - 3b + 4a).
Well, this problem is best solved by setting up a system of two linear equations.
A linear equation can be defined
y=mx+b
where
b=initial value (when x=0), and
m=rate of increase or decrease.
In the given example, the x-axis represents hour, and the y-axis, number of cells.
Chemical #1
initial value = b = 12000 cells
rate = m = -4000 / hr
The equation is therefore
y1=-4000x+12000......................(1)
Similarly, for chemical #2
initial value = b = 6000 cells
rate = m = -3000 / hr
The equation is therefore
y2=-3000x+6000 .......................(2)
The time the two will have an equal sized colony would represent the solution of the system of equations (1) and (2), i.e. when y1=y2
which means
-4000x+12000 = -3000x+6000
transpose and solve for x
4000x-3000x = 12000-6000
1000x=6000
x=6 hours.
At 6 hours from the start,
y=-4000x+12000 = -4000*6+12000 = -24000+12000 = -12000 cells
So the solution is x=6, y=-12000, or (6,-12000)
Physical interpretation
Since cells cannot have a negative number, the two are actually equal before six hours, when they are both zero.
Case 1: y=0 when x=3
Case 2: y=0 when x=2
Therefore, after three hours, both trials will have zero cells.
You have to judge whether to give the mathematical solution (x=6,y=-12000) or the physical interpretation (x=3, y=0) as the answer.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the two whole numbers be 5x and 2x then
by the question
5x - 2x = 33
3x = 33
x = 33/3
x = 11
Therefore the numbers are
- 5x = 5*11 = 55
- 2x = 2*11 = 22
hope it helps:)
Hope this isn't too confusing
All of the numbers have different shortcuts.
1. Yes. Divisible by 4: if last two digits are divisible by 4 then the whole number is yes)
2. No. Divisible by 6: it must be even and when you add them up, (44) it must be divisible by 3 (no, 44 is not divisible by 3)
3. Divisible by 8: ( last 3 numbers are divisible by 8 (312) = 39 ( yes it is)
4 Yes. Divisible by 11: ( sum of digits at odd places and sum of digits at even spaces,is either 0 or divisible by 11) yes, 278949. (2+8+9) + (7+9+9)= 19 + 25 = 44 and 44 is divisible by 11)
5. No. Divisible by 12 (divisible by 3 and 4, sum of digits is divisible by 3 ; and last 2 digits divisible by 4: 87654395 : 52/3= 18 (yes) 95/4(no) this number not divisible by 12
6. No. Divisible by 15: divisible by 3 and 5 ..87654385 = 46/3 = 15..(No) divisible by 5 yes. The number is not divisible by 15
