after 8 hours there are 995 bacteria cells left

let y be the amount after 8 hours

the multiplying factor is 100 - 5 = 95 % = 0.95

y = 1500 × (0.95)^{8} = 995

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

1. -29/156 2. 38/45 3. 29/45 4. 113/24 or about 4.7 5. 457/1,  914/2,  1371/3

Step-by-step explanation:

3/13 - 5/12 can be simplified to 36/156 - 65/156. Subtract this and you get -29/156  

4/9 + 2/5 can be simplified to 20/45 + 18/45. Add this and you get

38/45

5/8 - 2/9  can be simplified to 45/72 - 16/72. Subtract this and you get

29/45

3 1/2 + 2 5/12 can be first made irrational to 7/2 + 29/24. This can be simplified to 84/24 + 29/24

113/24 or about 4.7

Not sure about the 457, but to convert it, you multiply it by whatever denominator you have. For example

1x457 = 457/1

2x457 = 914/2

And finally 3x457 = 1371/3

the length of a rectangle is 4 meters less than twice its width. The area of the rectangle is 70. Find the dimensions of the rec
Savatey [412]

Answer:  The width is 7 meters. The length is 10 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:   Area = Length × width

Length is 2w - 4  

Substitute that value for length, then solve for w.

70 = w(2w - 4)

70 = 2w² - 4w  reorganize to quadratic equation form

2w² - 4w -70 = 0   These are All even numbers; factor out 2 (divide all by 2)

w² - 2w - 35 = 0  factor this

(w - 7)(w + 5)    set each factor = 0 and calculate the value of w.

w+5=0  w= -5  (disregard this one because dimensions of real rectangles can't be negative)

w - 7 = 0  w = 7   <u>The width is 7</u>

Substitute into the original expressions to get the value of Length.

2(7) -4 = L    14 - 4 = L  The<u> Length is 10.</u>

Check by substituting into the original equation:

w × 2w -4 = 70

7 × 2(7) -4 = 70

7 × 10 = 70    TRUE!

w
