Answer:

2^24 = 16,777,216 bacterias.

Step-by-step explanation:

So we start with 1 bacteria

after 1 hours: 2*1 = 2

after 2 hours: 2*2 = 2^2 = 4

after 3 hours: 2*2^2 = 2^3  

after n hours: 2^n  

Since one day has 24 hours we have n = 24 and total number of bacteria will

be:  2^24 = 16,777,216 bacterias.

Gala2k [10]

Answer:

(-3 ,2.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

midpoint formula is

 x1+x2        y1+y2

(___    ,    _____   )

  2                   2

(-7,-2)     -7 is x1 i.e the first x point and -2 is y1 1st y point

(1,7)        1 is x2 i.e the second x point and 7 is y2 the second y point

now we use input the numbers to the formula

-7+1         -2+7          

(____  , --------)

2             2

we the signs are different you subtract and use sign of greater number

-6          5

__ ,     ___

2           2

Now you divide

and here is the ordered pair for midpoint.

(-3 ,2.5)

Find the <br> slope of 7y-x=14
Anna71 [15]
Set the equation equal to y

Add x to each side
7y=14 +x

Divide each side by 7
y=2 + x

The slope is whatever number corresponds with the variable x

In this case there is no number in front of the x which indicates that the slope is 1
