Answer: Answer is "D" aka 3.
Step-by-step explanation: the number sequence goes up by three on each bar; leaving the final number to be 3.
Answer:
The number of bacteria after days is given by
where is the initial number of bacteria.
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of bacteria in the sample triples every 10 days, this means after the first 10th day, the number of bacteria is
where is the initial number of bacteria in the sample.
After the 2nd 10th days, the number of bacteria is
after the 3rd day,
and so on.
Thus, the formula we get for the number of bacteria after the nth 10-days is
where is is the nth 10-days.
Since, is 10 days, we have
or
Answer:
x=1/2 or 0.5
B. 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one: Add x to both sides
you then get the equation 7=4x+5
Step two: subtract 5 from both sides
you then get the equation 2=4x
Divide both sides by 4 to undo the multiplication.
2/4=4x/4x
you get x=2/4 which simplifies to 1/2.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The standard form of a quadratic is 
We will use the x and y values from each of our 3 points to find a, b, and c. Filling in the x and y values from each point:
First point (-5, 0):
and
0 = 25a - 5b + c
Second point (9, 0):
and
0 = 81a + 9b + c
Third point (8, -39):
and
-39 = 64a + 8b + c
Use the elimination method of solving systems on the first 2 equations to eliminate the c. Multiply the first equation by -1 to get:
-25a + 5b - c = 0
81a + 9b + c = 0
When the c's cancel out you're left with
56a + 14b = 0
Now use the second and third equations and elimination to get rid of the c's. Multiply the second equation by -1 to get:
-81a - 9b - c = 0
64a + 8b + c = -39
When the c's cancel out you're left with
-17a - 1b = -39
Between those 2 bolded equations, eliminate the b's. Do this by multiplying the second of the 2 by 14 to get:
56a + 14b = 0
-238a - 14b = -546
When the b's cancel out you're left with
-182a = -546 and
a = 3
Use this value of a to back substitute to find b:
56a + 14b = 0 so 56(3) + 14b = 0 gives you
168 + 14b = 0 and 14b = -168 so
b = -12
Now back sub in a and b to find c:
0 = 25a - 5b + c gives you
0 = 75+ 60 + c so
0 = 135 + c and
c = -135
Put that all together into the standard form equation to get

Answer:
B) (second one down)
Step-by-step explanation:
I would put b because it didnt passed the 7 line and it passed 6.5 so would I say its 6.8
