Answer:

Initial virus = 100 at 0.1/hr

100×0.1 = 10virus/ hr

24hrs=?virus

10 virus = 1hr

? = 24 hrs

The number of virus at 24hrs= 240virus ×hr/1 hr

=240 virus.

<h3>Answer: 985</h3>

=============================================

Work Shown:

A = amount after t hours

P = initial amount = 100

r = growth rate in decimal form = 0.10

t = number of hours = 24

--------

A = P*(1+r)^t

A = 100(1+0.10)^24

A = 100*(1.10)^24

A = 100*9.84973267580762

A = 984.973267580762

A = 985

Eric has 5 CDs that he is going to give away. He lets his best friend choose 3 of the 5 CDs. How many different groups of 3 CDs
Snowcat [4.5K]
Given a group of n object. We want to make a selection of k objects out of the n object. This can be done in 

C(n, k) many ways, where C(n, k)= \frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!},

where k!=1*2*3*...(k-1)*k


Thus, we can do the selection of 3 cd's out of 5, in C(5,3) many ways, 

where 

C(5, 3)= \frac{5!}{3!2!}= \frac{5*4*3*2*1}{3*2*1*2*1}= \frac{5*4}{2}=10

ABC is not an acute triangle what is the first step of indirectly proving this statement
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

Assume ΔABC is an acute triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the triangle ABC.

We have to tell the first step of indirect proving ΔABC is not an acute triangle.

An indirect proof, also known a proof by contradiction. When we use indirect proof method, we assume the opposite of our theory to be true and then by applying our assumed theory we contradict the given statement which proves our supposition is wrong. In other words, we assume our theory is false.

Hence, our first step is to

Assume ΔABC is an acute triangle.

Third option is correct.

Lee has 3 children, the oldest is twice as old as the oungest, the middle is 5 years older than the youngest, the sum of the chi
tangare [24]
Oldest = 2x
Middle = x + 5
Youngest = x

2x + x + 5 + x = 57
combine like terms

4x + 5 = 57
subtract 5 from both sides

4x = 52
divide both sides by 4 to isolate x

x = 13

Oldest = 2x = 2(13) = 26
Middle = x + 5 = 13 + 5 = 18
Youngest = x = 13
