Answer:
7 days
Step-by-step explanation:
At 25% per day, it will take approximately 3 days to double the population, so approximately 6 days for the population to quadruple. Checking that number, we find it is not quite enough for the experiment, so another day is required.
"Guess and check" as a method of solution works especially well if you have an automated checker to evaluate your guess. A graphing calculator or spreadsheet can work well for this.
_____
We guess 3 days as the doubling time using the "rule of 72" that says the product of percentage and doubling time is about 72. That is, 72/25 ≈ 3. (This is only a very rough approximation of doubling time, best for rates near 8%.)
Answer:
<h2>g = 17</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
15 less than twice a number g is 19
2g - 15 = 19 <em>add 15 to both sides</em>
2g - 15 + 15 = 19 + 15
2g = 34 <em>divdie both sides by 2</em>
2g : 2 = 34 : 2
g = 17
If a tablet weighs 1.23 pounds, the weight written as a mixed number would be, 1 as the whole number and 23 is in the hundreds place, so you would write, 1 and 23/100.
