Answer:

3 3/4 tablespoons of coffee to make 10 cups of coffee

3 3/4 =15/4

10 cups require 15/4 tablespoon of coffee

1 cup require how much

15/4 divide by 10

15/4 ÷ 10

=15/4 * 1/10

=15/40

=3/8 tablespoon of coffee for 1 cup of coffee

Answer:

3/8 Tablespoon per cup

Step-by-step explanation:

Our unit rate here is

3 3/4 Tablespoons

-----------------------------

10 cups coffee

Converting 3 3/4 to an improper fraction, we get 15/4 Tablespoons:

15/4 Tablespoons 15

--------------------------- = -------- Tablespoons/cup

10 cups coffee 40

Reduce this by dividing numerator and denominator both by 5:

3/8 Tablespoon per cup

A certain kind of bacteria multiplies at a rate of 150 percent per hour. When a person’s blood has 45,000,000 of these bacteria,

DIA [1.3K]

Initial number of Bacteria = Ao = 100
Number of Bacteria which make the person ill = A = 45,000,000

Growth rate = r = 150% = 1.50

The equation model for this situation is:

$A= A_{o}(1+r)^{t}$

Using the values in above equation, we can write:

$45000000=100(1+1.5)^{t} \\ \\ 
450000=(2.5)^{t} \\ \\ 
log(450000)=log((2.5)^{t}) \\ \\ 
log(450000)=t*log(2.5) \\ \\ 
t= \frac{log(450000)}{log(2.5)} \\ \\ 
t=14.21$

This means, the person will fall sick after about 14 hours.

<span>The difference between the larger result and the smaller result was 10.

Suppose the 4 digits numbers are abcd and pqrs

Here, 1st Number is = 1000*a + 100*b + 10*c + d
and 2nd</span> Number is = 1000*ap + 100*q + 10*r + s

Then, since Kent made an error if 1 in tens columns and Harold added it correct, so the difference will be of 10 points.
