The answer is <span>C.) 2
The general form of formula is
y = a </span><span>• r^x
y - the total number of bacteria after x period of time
a - the initial number of bacteria
r - growth rate
x - period of time
Let's compare:
</span>y = a • r^x
<span>y = 280 • 2^x
Since r = 2, the growth rate is C.) 2</span>
Answer:
36 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the productivity of slower computer is x bits/min
That means Slower computer in 45 minutes sends x*45 bits= company's email
Let the productivity of faster computer is y bits/min
That means that working together slower and faster computers send
x*20+y*20= company's email or
x*20+y*20=x*45
x*25=y*20
y/x=25/20= 1,25
That means that faster computer sends the mails 1.25 times faster than slower computer
So faster computer will need in 1.25 times lees time than slower computer to do this job
45:1.25 =36 min
just follow the steps given in the question
Answer:
As many as 7 apples or as few as 4 apples could be green.
Step-by-step explanation:
Laura picks 7 apples.Some apples are red and some are green. Fewer than 4 of the apples are red. How many of laura's apples could be green?
x = total number of red apples
y = total number of green apples
Fewer than 4 of the apples are red.
x<4
That means that 3 or less of the apples are red
So, 7 - 3 = 4
That means that 4 or more apples are green.
7≥y≥4
That means that as many as 7 apples or as few as 4 apples could be green.
