First add 12 to both sides to get 5a = 10
Then divide both sides by 5 to get a = 10/5
Simplify and get a = 2

10 people who build at the same rate can frame a house in 6 days. What fractional part of a house can 4 people frame a house in

Alina [70]

10 people who build at the same rate can frame a house in 6 days. That means it will take one person $10\times6=60$ days to finish the house.

Which means that it will take 4 people $\frac{60}{4}=15$ days to finish the house.

So, the fractional part of the house 4 people can frame in 3 days will be $\frac{3}{15}=\frac{1}{5}$

Thus, Option D is the correct answer.

A scientist counts 25 bacteria present in a culture and finds that the number of bacteria triples each hour. The function y = 25

Anvisha [2.4K]

$y = 25\cdot~3^x\\ \\ 1170 = 25\cdot~3^x\\ \\ \frac{1170}{25} = 3^x\\ \\ \frac{243}{5} = 3^x\\ \\ log\ \frac{243}{5} = log~3^x\\ \\ log~243-log~5=x~log~3\\ \\ 
 log~3^5-log~5=x~log~3\\ \\ 5~log~3-log~5 = x~log~3\\ \\ 5(0,48)-0,70= 0,48x\\ \\ 2,4-0,7 = 0,48x\\ \\ 1,7=0,48x\\ \\ x=\frac{1,7}{0,48}\\ \\ \large{\boxed{x=3,54\ h}}$
