Answer: \dfrac{1}{5}\text{ of an ounce.}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A biologist studied how cells grow by adding liquid protein to cell samples.

She divided \dfrac{3}{5} of an ounce of liquid protein evenly among 3 cell samples.

Here , total quantity of liquid protein = \dfrac{3}{5} of an ounce

Total cell samples = 3

Now , Quantity of liquid protein given by her to each cell = (total quantity of liquid protein ) ÷ (3)

= \dfrac{3}{5}\times\dfrac{1}{3}=\dfrac{1}{5}\text{ of an ounce} .

Hence, Quantity of liquid protein given by her to each cell =  \dfrac{1}{5}\text{ of an ounce.}

2(4 - 2r) = -2(r + 5)
Alexus [3.1K]
2(4 - 2r) = -2(r + 5)

First, divide both sides by -2. / Your problem should look like: -4 + 2r = r + 5
Second, regroup your terms. / Your problem should look like: 2r - 4 = r + 5
Third, add 4 to both sides. / Your problem should look like: 2r = r + 5  + 4
Fourth, add r + 5 + 4 to get r + 9. / Your problem should look like:2r = r + 9
Fifth, subtract r from both sides. / Your problem should look like: 2r - r = 9
Sixth, subtract 2r - r to get r. / Your problem should look like: r = 9

Answer: r = 9
