The answer is B) The initial number of bacteria is 57, and the growth rate is 31% per hour.


The expression shown is an <em>exponential expression</em>.  An exponential expression usually takes the form ab^{x}, as this one does.  A represents the <em>initial value</em>, in this case-the initial number of bacteria.  B represents the <em>growth rate</em>.  When it is an increasing growth rate, it will begin with 1, because it will have everything it had before, plus the percent increase, the decimal portion.  In this case, a=57, and b=0.31.


Hope this makes sense!

Solve the equation.
aksik [14]

Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{2}{3} - 4x + \frac{7}{2} = -9x + \frac{5}{6}

Add 4x to each side of the equation

\frac{2}{3} - 4x + \frac{7}{2} + 4x = -9x + \frac{5}{6} + 4x

\frac{2}{3} + \frac{7}{2} = -9x + \frac{5}{6} + 4x

Subtract ⅚ from each side

\frac{2}{3} + \frac{7}{2} - \frac{5}{6} = -9x + \frac{5}{6} + 4x - \frac{5}{6}

\frac{2}{3} + \frac{7}{2} - \frac{5}{6} = -9x + 4x

\frac{4 + 21 + 5}{6} = -5x

\frac{30}{6} = -5x

5 = -5x

Divide both sides by -5

\frac{5}{-5} = \frac{-5x}{-5}

-1 = x

x = -1
