At the rate of 5% per hour, time to take another 100 to get infected is essentially time to double the infection.
We can use the rule of 72 to get a quick rough estimate
time = 72/5=14.4 hours.

Exact value:
100(1.05)^t = 200
1.05^t=2
take log
t=log(2)/log(1.05)
= 14.21 hours

HELP PLEASEEEE ITS DUE SOON! SHOW YOUR WORK & ILL GIVE BRAINLIEST I PROMISE

Answer:

(2,10) or x=2 y=10

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>1. Pick one of your equations and solve for a variable. I chose the first equation and solved for x.</em>

5x-2y=-10 (Move the -2y to the other side, you need to do the opposite so you add +2y to -10)

5x=2y-10 (Divide the 5 from the x)

x=2/5y-2

<em>2. Now take what you got for x and plug it into the x variable on the other equation.</em>

3(2/5y-2)+6y=66 (Multiply 3 by 2/5y and -2)

6/5y-6=6y=66 (Move the -6 to the other side and add 6/5y to 6y)

36/5y=72 (Since the number on the y is a fraction, you must do the opposite to the other side)

y=72/1 x 5/36 (Flip your fraction and multiply it by the 72)

y=10

<em>3. Now that you have one of the variables solved for, in order to get the other we must plug in what we have to the first equation.</em>

5x-2(10)=-10 (Multiple 2 by 10)

5x-20=-10 (Move -20 to the other side, since you do the opposite add +20 to the -10)

5x=10 ( Divide 10 by 5)

x= 2

<em>4. If needed, plug in the values of x and y to check your solution.</em>

Hope this could help! :)

Determine the center and radius of the following circle equation:<br> x? + y2 - 2x - 12y +36 = 0
Gre4nikov [31]

Step-by-step explanation:  

x²+ y² -12x - 18y +17 = 0 means : (x²-12x+36)-36+(y²-18y+81)-81-27 =0

(x-6)²+(y-9)² =12²....standard form when the center is (-6 , 9) and radius 12
