Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 24 yellow fish and the ratio of the yellow fish to the red fish is 3:2. Then we know that 24/3=8. This means that 1 is equal to 8 fish. Since there are 2 ones for the red fish, we times 8 by 2 to get 16.

Suppose a lake contains blue and green algae. The blue algae has an initial mass of 20 kg and doubles its mass every hour. The g
loris [4]

Answer:  1) D

2) C

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The blue algae has an initial mass of 20 kg and doubles its mass every hour. Then after t hours, the mass of blue algae is

2. The green algae has an initial mass of 160 kg and grows at a constant rate of 0.20 kg per minute. Then after t hours (60t minutes), the mass of green algae is

Part I) At t=3:

The mass of green algae has 196-160=36 kg more mass at 3 hours.

Part II) At t=4:

The blue algae has 320-208=112 kg more mass at 4 hours.

A cubed-shaped box has its side lengths decreased by 3 cm, when this happens, the volume decreases by 1385cm^3. What is the side
mixer [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let side of cube=x cm

volume=x³ cm³

again side=(x-3) cm

volume=(x-3)³ cm³

x³-(x-3)³=1385

(a³-b³)=(a-b)(a²+ab+b²)

(x-x+3){x²+x(x-3)+(x-3)²}=1385

3(x^2+x²-3x+x²-6x+9)=1385

3(3x²-9x+9)=1385

9x²-27x+27=1385

9x²-27x+27-1385=0

9x²-27x-1358=0

x=\frac{27\pm\sqrt{(-27)^2-4*9*(-1358)} }{2*9} \\x=\frac{27\pm\sqrt{729+48888} }{18} \\or~x=\frac{27\pm\sqrt{49617} }{18} \\or~x=\frac{27\pm 222.749}{18} \\taking positive side only as negative sign gives negative length.\\or~x=\frac{27+222.749}{18} \\or~x\approx13.87
