This type of situation applies first order type of equation.  In this case, the equation is ln( A0/A1) = kt. A is the number of bacteria cultured. A0 is equal to 150. when A1 is 300, t is 20 minutes. that is ln (150/300) = k *20 the other condition is represented by ln (A0/1200) = 60k. k is equal to -0.0347. hence the first order equation is equal to ln (150/A1) = -0.0347 t

Which step is incorrect and what is the correct answer?
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

Step 4, x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 4 was wrong, instead of 6x = 6, it should be 6x = 18. They shoudl've added 6 to both sides instead of subtracting 6 as ur trying to cancel out the 6 on the left side of the equation. So:

6x = 18

x = 3

1 At the annual hotdog eating contest, James eats 32 hotdogs in 60 seconds. At this rate, how long would it take James to eat 48
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

90 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

If James eats 32 hotdogs in 60 seconds, we want to find how long it would take James to eat 48 hotdogs.

We can use proportion to solve this problem.

If 32:60, then 48:x.

Since it will required more seconds to eat 48 hotdogs, 32 will divide.

If more, less divides.

Therefore

x =  \frac{48 \times 60}{32}

x = 90

Therefore it will take James 90 seconds if he eats at the same rate
