Answer:28 bags with 17 cents left over
Step-by-step explanation: First, subtract the amount of 37.85 from what he started out with, 52.02. You should get 14.17.
Then, if we have 14 whole dollars and the bags each cost 50 cents, then we can just multiply 14 by 2, since each dollar equals 50 cents times 2.
EX: $1=50 cents x2. So 14 dollars x2 would be like saying the first amount 50 cents doubled. You should get 28 bags, with 17 cents left over :). Let me know if this makes sense! I really hope this helps you.
2 - 3i is just another of writing (2, -3) in the cartesian plane, the 2-3i however is using the "imaginary axis" for the imaginary plane, is all however the imaginary axis is simply the equivalent of the y-axis. Likewise 9+21i is just (9,21), so let's just use the distance formula.

The general equation for exponential growth can be written as:

where r is the growth rate.
Plugging in the given values, we get:

Therefore

giving
![1+r= \sqrt[3]{1.1} =1.0323](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=1%2Br%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B1.1%7D%20%3D1.0323)
The predicted number of bacteria after 17 hours is given by:
19/20= 0.95
-1/8= -0.125
17/5= 3.4
HOPE THIS HELPS!
