To start, find your equation, n=3000(.5)^t, n being your number of bacteria and t being your time. Now plug in 375 for n and solve for t, 375=3000(.5)^t, .125=.5^t, t=log_{.5} .125=3. This means your answer is 3 minutes. To check it, plug it into your equation. n=3000(.5)^t=3000(.125)=375

in your economics 101 class you have scores of 68,82,87 and 89 on the first four of five tests to earn a grade of a B or higher
Nadusha1986 [10]
(68 + 82 + 87 + 89 + x) / 5 > = 80
(326 + x) / 5 > = 80
326 + x > = 80 * 5
326 + x > = 400
x > = 400 - 326
x > = 74.......u would have to make at least a 74 to earn a B

What is the greatest common factor (GCF) of 15 and 64? <br>1. (3) <br>2.(4)<br>3.(8)<br>4.(1)​
omeli [17]
It’s 1.

Explanation: you need to find the greatest factor that works out for them both. You can cross out 4 and 8 because no other whole number can be multiplied to get 15, and it’s not 3 since you can’t multiply it with a whole number to get 64. 1 works for them both.

a rectangular plot of land 8m long and 6m wide.there is a flower bed in the form of a circle of radius 3m.find 1.area of land. 2
mixer [17]

Answer:

1)Area of the Land  is 48 square meters

2) Area of flower bed   is  28.26 square meter

3)Area of land excluding flower bed   is 19.74 square meters

4)cost of planting grass in land  excluding flower bed   is Rs 118.44

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of the Rectangular plot = 8m

Width of the rectangular plot =  6m

Radius of the circular flower bed = 3m

1)Area of the Land  

Area of the Rectangular plot  = Area of the Land  

Area of the Land   = length x width

Area of the Land   =  8*6

Area of the Land  = 48 square meters-----------------------------(1)

2. Area of flower bed

Area of flower bed =  4 x area of one quadrant

Area of flower bed =  area of the circle

Area of flower bed  = \pi r^2

where r is the radius

Now , substituting the values

Area of flower bed = \pi (3)(3)

Area of flower bed = 28.26 square meters-----------------------------(2)

3)Area of land excluding flower bed

Area of land excluding flower bed =  Area of the rectangular land - area of flower beds

Area of land excluding flower bed =  48 - 28.26

Area of land excluding flower bed = 19.74 square meters

4)cost of planting grass in land

Cost of planting grass per square meter = 6

Excluding the flower bed we have  19.74 square meters. to plant grass  for this 19. 74 square meters, the cost will be

=19. 74 \times 6

= Rs 118.44

Answer: 1760

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of 1 flyer = $0.25 or 25 cents

Budget is = $555

Let us assume that supplies cost is a one time cost

Cost of supplies for one time = $115

So budget remains =

So in $0.25 we get = 1 flyer

In $440 we get =  = 1760

Hence, we can buy 1760 flyers.
