N = 10(2)^t where N = number of bacteria and t = time in multiples of 3 hours

So when t = 24/3 we have

N = 10 (2)^8 = 2560 answer

<span>erry starts rowing at 2 pm from the west end of the lake, and Tao starts rowing from the east end of the lake at 2:05 pm.
------
Terry DATA:
rate = 60 meter/min ; time = x min ; distance = r*t = 60x meters
-----
Tao DATA:
rate = 40 meter/min ; time = x-5 min ; distance = r*t = 40(x-5) meters
--------------------------
If they always row directly towards each other at what time will the two meet?

------
Equation:
dist + dist = 2000 meters
60x + 40(x-5) = 2000
20x = 1800
x = 90 minutes

The cost of two tables and three chairs is $705. If the table costs $40 more than the chair,find the cost of the table and the c

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

the cost of the table is $\$165$

the cost of the chair is $\$125$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> the cost of the table

y----> the cost of the chair

we know that

$2x+3y=705$ -----> equation A

$x=y+40$ -----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A

$2(y+40)+3y=705$

$2y+80+3y=705$

$5y=705-80$

$y=625/5$

$y=\$125$

Find the value of x

$x=y+40$ ----> $x=125+40=\$165$
