Petri Dish A sees a double ever 10 minutes
Petri Dish B sees a double ever 6 minutes
Consequences
A doubles 60 / 10 = 6 times.
B doubles 60 / 6 = 10 times.
Solution
If you work best with numbers then suppose there are 100 bacteria in both dishes at the beginning
A = 100 * 2^6
B = 100 * 2^10
A will have 100 * 64 = 6400 bacteria growing inside A
B will have 100 * 1024 = 102400 bacteria growing inside B
B/A = 102400 / 6400 = 16
There are 16 times as many in B than in A. <<<< Answer
Answer: $1,842
Step-by-step explanation:
John wants to earn 25% of his investment of $50,000 which is:
= 25% * 50,000
= $12,500
He has expenses of $9,600 yearly so the rent he should charge per year in order to make his 25% requirement as income is:
= Expenses + Return
= 9,600 + 12,500
= $22,100
Rent per month is:
= 22,100 / 12
= $1,842
This is pretty simple once you get used to this
First set it equal to the original and the negative one
(>_) is the bigger and equal to part
4x+5>_45 or 4x+5>_-45
Then solve for x for both
4x>_40. 4x>_-50
X>_10 X>_-25/2
