Answer: There would be 12,000 bacteria 8 hours after the initial infection.

Step-by-step explanation: You start with 25 cells and if they divide every 15 minutes, 25 multiplied by 15 gets you 375 cells every quarter of an hour. Then if you multiply that by the 32 quarter hours, you get 12,000 cells. To check that you can also multiply 25 by 15, still 375, then 375 by 4 for each quarter of the hour, then that gets you 1,500 cells every hour. If you multiply that by 8 for the 8 hours they have time to divide, you still get 12,000 cells.

I hope this helps!

just olya [345]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A is rather a strange choice. The tools are used as extensions of our senses. That's all that technology has done. We still need to observe things for ourselves if we are to learn. I actually really do not know what this statement means. My answer reflects what I think is true. Our need to observe and think is not hindered.

B is never going to be true. We still have to test things out, even with the best tools that we have.

C: The exact opposite is true. Our knowledge of the universe has expanded beyond our belief with the better tools of technology that we have.

D: This is the opposite of C and is the answer.

15/3 + (6,5 + 4,2) - 0,6 Please show your work, thank you :)

kifflom [539]

Answer:

15/3 + (6.5 + 4.2) - 0.6 = 15.1

Step-by-step explanation:

You can first reduce the fraction to 5 when you multiply by 3, then calculate what's in the parenthesis. So now you have 5 + 10.7 - 0.6, then just solve from left to right. Hope this helps
