The answer is 160 because as you stated in the question the number of bacteria doubles every five minutes, and after 10 minutes there are 40. Therefore, after 15 minutes there are 80 (40 doubled is 80), and after 20 (another 5 minutes), the number of bacteria is the double of 80, which is 160.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Bob ran the first part of a 12 km race at a speed of 8 kmph. He ran the second part of the
race at 10 kmph. If his total time for the entire race was 1.74 hours, how far did he run in
the first part of the race?
First part :
Total Distance = 12 km
First part Speed = 8kmph
Let distance covered on first part = x
Second part speed = 10kmhr
(8*x)
