Answer:
Step 1. Should be 3(x +2x) -2(x +1) +5 . . .
or . . . 3x(1 +2) -2(x +1) +5 . . .
or . . . 9x -2(x+1) +5
Step-by-step explanation:
Lisa apparently failed to realize that both terms inside the first set of parentheses have 3x as a factor. They are like terms, so could be combined directly. If Lisa really wants to factor out 3 or 3x, she could do so and then combine the remaining factors at another step.
The function that represents the growth of this culture of bacteria as a function of time is; P = 1500e^(1.0986t)
<h3>How to calculate Exponential Growth?</h3>
The formula for exponential growth is;
P = P₀e^(rt)
where;
P = current population at time t
P₀ = starting population
r = rate of exponential growth/decay
t = time after start
Thus, from our question we have;
4500 = 1500 * e^(r * 1)
4500/1500 = e^r
e^r = 3
In 3 = r
r = 1.0986
Thus, the function that represents the growth of this culture of bacteria as a function of time is;
P = 1500e^(1.0986t)
For the culture to double, then;
P/P₀ = 2. Thus;
e^(1.0986t) = 2
In 2 = 1.0986t
t = 0.6931/1.0986
t = 0.631 hours

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let “x” be the weight of the bottle and “y” is weight of honey.
We know the total weight of bottle full of honey is 1000 g.
So Equation 1 is x + y = 1000 g
And with half of the honey, we know the total weight is 600g.
Equation 2: x + (y/2) = 600 g
y/2=600 - x
y= 2 (600 - x)
y= 1200 - 2x
We can replace “y” with 1200 - 2x in Equation 1:
x + 1200 - 2x = 1000
x = 200 g
Weight of the bottle is 200 g.
Hi there! 9.125 * 10^-3 is definitely less than 9.125 * 10^2, because when it comes to negative powers of 10, the numbers are decimals. 10^-3 equals 0.001 or one thousandths in word form. 10^2 is 100. When solving for the answers. 0.009125 is less than 912.5. When 912.5 is divided by 0.009125 912.5 is 100^5 or 100,000 times greater than 0.009125. The answer is that 9.125 * 10^-3 is 100,000 (100^5) times less than 9.125 * 10^2.
