Givens
Petri Dish A sees a double ever 10 minutes
Petri Dish B sees a double ever 6 minutes

Consequences
A doubles 60 / 10 = 6 times.
B doubles 60 / 6 = 10 times.

Solution
If you work best with numbers then suppose there are 100 bacteria in both dishes at the beginning
A = 100 * 2^6
B = 100 * 2^10

A will have 100 * 64 = 6400 bacteria growing inside A
B will have 100 * 1024 = 102400 bacteria growing inside B

B/A = 102400 / 6400 = 16

There are 16 times as many in B than in A. <<<< Answer

Divide. Write the quotient in lowest terms.<br> 5 divide 3 1/3
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

3/2 or 1 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

5÷3 1/3

5/1 ÷ 10/3 because you have to get it into an improper fraction form in order to divide

5/1 × 3/10 because you have to multiply the first number by the reciprocal

5  and 10 cancel out so you would have 2 at the bottom

The area of a square patio is 225 square feet. How long is each side of the patio? (QUICK I HAVE AN EXAM LOL)
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

15 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a square the sides are of the same length.

Now the side multiplied by itself gives 225. Hence the length of the side is a number which multiplied by itself gives 225. It is easy to see that 15 × 15 = 225. Therefore the side is 15 feet long.

hram777 [196]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The population of that country in 2006 was 500 million. What was the average number of

gallons of fruit juice consumed per person in the country in 2006? Use pencil and paper. Using the per

person amount from this problem, about how many gallons would your class consume?

Total consumption in 2006 = 2.11 billion gallons (2,110,000,000)

Population of country in 2006 = 500,000,000

Average number of gallons of fruit juice consumed per person in the country in 2006:

Total consumption / total population

2,110,000,000 / 500,000,000

= 4.22 gallons per person

Number of gallons class will consume :

Assume number of students in class = 15

Hence, class consumption equals:

Average consumption per person × number of students in class :

4.22 × 15 = 63.3 gallons
