The answer is 1.66×10⁶ sheets of paper.

Monument is tall 555 ft. If 1 ft is 12 inches, than monument is tall 555 ft × 12 inches which is 6,660 inches.
Writing paper is approximately 0.004 inches thick.
The question is <span>how many sheets of paper are needed for 6,660 inches tall monument:
6,660 </span>÷ 0.004 = 1,665,000 = 1.66 × 1,000,000 = 1.66 × 10⁶ sheets of paper.

A scientist is studying bacteria and records the number of bacteria over time. The scientists determines that the function N(t)=
Cloud [144]

Answer:

(A) The number of bacteria is originally 300 and increases by 30% every hour

Step-by-step explanation:

I am assuming the function should actually read:

N(t)=300\cdot 1.30^t

(i.e., there should be a "t" in the exponent. if this is not the case please disregard my answer).

According to the above exponential function, the initial amount 300 grows as (1+0.3)*300=300+0.3*300. In other words it increases by 30% every hour (t).

Your answer choice (A) is likely a candidate, except I am missing "every hour" at the end (again, am assuming this was omitted by mistake)

Each peach costs $0.56 and the equations used to solve that is 4x= 2.24 where x is the cost of 1 peach.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

It is given that all the peaches weigh the same and that 4 peaches weigh 1 pound.

Assume that each peach costs x.

So the cost for 4 peaches is given by 4x.

Step 2:

The cost of 1 pound of peaches is given as $2.24.

1 pound of peaches=4x.

So 4x= 2.24, x = \frac{2.24}{4}.

x = 0.56.

So each peach costs $0.56.
