Answer:

The correct answer is -21 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the original temperature was -12 degrees. If the temperature drops another 9 degrees, this means that it is getting colder or the temperature is getting lower; this lets us know that we should subtract 9 from the original temperature. This is modeled below:

-12 - 9

Now, we simply have to perform the subtraction to get:

-21 degrees

Hope this helps!

Researchers recorded that a certain bacteria population declined from 800,000 to 500,000 in 6 hours after the administration of

kupik [55]

Answer:

We can assume that the decline in the population is an exponential decay.

An exponential decay can be written as:

P(t) = A*b^t

Where A is the initial population, b is the base and t is the variable, in this case, number of hours.

We know that: A = 800,000.

P(t) = 800,000*b^t

And we know that after 6 hours, the popuation was 500,000:

p(6h) = 500,000 = 800,000*b^6

then we have that:

b^6 = 500,000/800,000 = 5/8

b = (5/8)^(1/6) = 0.925

Then our equation is:

P(t) = 800,000*0.925^t

Now, the population after 24 hours will be:

P(24) = 800,000*0.925^24 = 123,166

One serving of the food product contains 1g total saturated fat or 5% daily value (DV) for saturated fat. What is the daily valu

Leona [35]

Answer:

The daily value for saturated fat is 20g.

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage problems can be solved by rule of three

In a rule of three problem, the first step is identifying the measures and how they are related, if their relationship is direct of inverse.

When the relationship between the measures is direct, as the value of one measure increases, the value of the other measure is going to increase too. In this case, the rule of three is a cross multiplication.

When the relationship between the measures is inverse, as the value of one measure increases, the value of the other measure will decrease. In this case, the rule of three is a line multiplication.

A percentage problem is an example where the relationship between the measures is direct.

The problem states that 1g is 5% of the daily value for saturated fat. The daily value(100%) for saturated fat is x, so:

1g - 5%

xg - 100%

5x = 100

$x = \frac{100}{5}$

x = 20g

The daily value for saturated fat is 20g.
