The bacteria took more time to double from 1 cell to a bottle full of cells. Once the bottle was full, each cell in the full bottle doubled, causing an additional bottle to be filled in 5 minutes. Then the 2 full bottles doubled in the next 5 minutes, causing all 3 bottles to be full.

Bacteria growth occurs exponentially; bacteria divides into 2 every t minutes (similar to the penny doubling every day story). If one gets filled, and the contents divides once, there will be enough for 2 bottles; when these two are ready to divide, there will be enough for 4. This growth process begins very slowly - 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32; but it soon speeds up greatly, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048.

How to do 3 4/5 ÷ 1 1/3
andrew11 [14]

Answer: 2 7/15

Step-by-step explanation: First, you make sure you have the same denominator on both of the fractions.

4/5 turns to 12/15 and 1/3 turns to 5/15

After that, then you do 12/15 - 5/15, which is 7/15.

Now you do 3 - 1.

Your answer should be 2 7/15.

I hope this helps you and I hope you have a blessed day!

Rectangle pqrs is shown with its diagonals, pr and qs. what type of triangle is △str?right triangleequilateral triangleisosceles
Rainbow [258]
Since you did not provide a diagram, I made one for easier reference. You are asking what kind of triangle is the one shaded in red. Since a rectangle has two sets of congruent sides, their diagonals are also equal. When two diagonals intersect each other, they make 4 congruent sides. Thus, the triangle is an isosceles triangle, since it has two equal sides ST and TR.
