6 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to be used is N=N0e^(kt)

N0 - amount of bacteria at time 0, which is 10g

t=2, 30g

30 = 10*e^(k*2)

3 = e^(2k)

2k = ln3

k = 0.5ln3

At t=6:

N = 10*e^(0.5ln3*6)

N = 10e^(3ln3)

N = 10e^ln27

N = 10*27 =270

So the amount of bacteria at t=6 is 270

Joe has 37 coins consisting of nickels, dimes, and quarters. There are four more nickels than dimes and two more quarters than n
astraxan [27]

Answer:

  15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n, d, q represent the numbers of nickels, dimes, and quarters. The problem statement tells us ...

  n +d +q = 37

  n = d +4

  q = n +2

___

Rearranging the second equation gives ...

  d = n -4

Substituting that into the first, we get ...

  n + (n -4) +q = 37

  2n +q = 41 . . . . . . . add 4 and simplify

Rearranging the third original equation gives ...

  n = q -2

Substituting into the equation we just made, we get ...

  2(q -2) +q = 41

  3q = 45 . . . . . . . . add 4 and simplify

  q = 15 . . . . . . . . . divide by 3

Joe has 15 quarters.

_____

<em>Check</em>

The number of nickels is 2 fewer, so is 13. The number of dimes is 4 fewer than that, so is 9. The total number of coins is 15 + 13 + 9 = 37, as required.

nignag [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that one equation has -2y and the other has +2y. The fastest solution is to add the equations together. The two  terms will cancel out, eliminating the y terms.

8/7 = 12/k solve for k
Serjik [45]

Answer:

k = 10.5

Step-by-step explanation:

8/7 = 12/k

Using cross products

8k = 7*12

8k = 84

Divide each side by 8

8k/8 = 84/8

k = 10.5
