Answer:
It is 1,225 or just 1225.
6 - x = 2(x - 6)
the first step, following PEMDAS, is to distribute the 2 to the inside of your parentheses:
6 - x = 2x - 12 ... subtract 2x
6 - 3x = -12 ... subtract 6
-3x = -18 ... divide by -3
x = 6 is the answer
Answer:
800 bacteria
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer of this question depend upon number of hours at the end of day
Let Take Full Day of 24 hrs
Colby bacteria will doubled 12 times ( doubled once in 2hrs => 24/2 = 12)
Colby bacteria at end of day = 50 * 2¹²
Jaquan bacteria will doubled 8 times ( doubled once in 3hrs => 24/3 = 8)
Let say Jaquan bacteria at start of Day = J
Jaquan bacteria at end of day = J * 2⁸
Equating Both
J * 2⁸ = 50 * 2¹²
=> J = 50 * 2⁴
=> J = 50 * 16
=> J = 800
Jaquan will start with 800 Bacteria
