Answer: Look at explanation for answer...

Step-by-step explanation:

This could be turned into a simple proportion if you want to do it that way :)

1.) First, use the proportion bacteria over time.

2.) It should set up to look like this:  2,600        X

                                                           ---------- = ---------

                                                               7             15

3.) You then do your math (2,600 * 15) (39,000 / 7)

Answer: Your answer then comes out to be: (rounded) 5,571 bacteria

So it's actually 0.36363636... with the 36 repeating, right? 

<span>Here's a technique for converting repeating decimals to fractions: </span>

<span>N = 0.3636363636... </span>
<span>100N = 36.36363636... </span>

<span>This means 100N - N = (36.363636...) - (0.36363636...). This simplifies to 99N = 36, because the "0.36363636..." parts of both numbers on the right cancel each other out. </span>

<span>Solving this for N gives </span>
<span>N = 36/99, or 4/11 </span>

<span>If you take a calculator (or use long division) and divide 4 by 11, you'll see that it's 0.36363636...</span>

Which of the following are solution to the inequality below -4w - 2 &lt; -38
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

w > 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the inequality by using inverse operations.

-4w - 2 < -38

-4w < -36

w > 9

Like solving equations, inequalities should be solved using inverse operations. However, unlike equations, when you divide or multiply by a negative the sign changes.

2 tenths is equal to____ fifths
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
To solve this, it is easiest to set up a proportion, letting x represent the number that we don't know.

2/10 = x/5

Now, we can use cross products to simplify this proportion.  Cross products sets the products of the numerator and denominator of separate fractions equal to one another.  It results in the equation:

(5)(2) = (10)(x)

Let's multiply out these numbers to further simplify the equation.

10 = 10x 

Finally, we have to divide both sides by 10, to get our variable x alone

x = 1

Therefore, 2 tenths is equal to 1 fifth.
