Answer:

The correct answer is option (2) 19,531

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Data;

a = 1 (first term)

r = 5 (five offspring)

n = 7 ( number of hours)

Using the formula of a geometric progression, we have

S₇ = \frac{a(r^{n} - 1) }{r -1}

Substituting, we have

S₇ = \frac{1(5^{7} -1) }{5-1}

S₇ = 78124/4

    = 19531

Therefore, there are 19531 number of organisms at hour seven.

In the accompanying diagram of ABC ca is extended to D, m∠ABC = 70 and m∠BCA =50 Find m∠DAB
zvonat [6]

Answer:

<em>120 degrees</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram attached.

From the diagram;

Interior angles are m∠BCA and m∠ABC

Exterior angle is m∠DAB

The sum of interior angle of the triangle is equal to exterior

m∠BCA +m∠ABC =m∠DAB

Given

m∠ABC = 70

m∠BCA =50

m∠DAB = 70 + 50

m∠DAB = 120 degrees

<em>Hence the measure of m∠DAB is 120 degrees</em>
