Yes 1/4 is a rational number
If we multiply the first equation by 2 we get
2x - 4y = 12
but the second equation is
2x - 4y = 10
2x - 4y can't have 2 different values so the are no solutions
35x2.5=87.5 so 87.5 is the answer
Answer: After 13 (12) hours, there would be 6,500 bacteria across the culture.
Step-by-step explanation:
The bacteria grew by 500 each 4 hours, so to know how much there would be 13 hours later:
Simple, add 500 bacteria to every 4 hours until you reach 13 hours. 4 = 5.5k, 8 = 6k, 12 = 6.5k. Now, 12 is closer to 13 than anything we would've gotten if we kept going.
And there's your answer.
Y = f(x) = -3x
y = -3x
y = (constant) x
y is proportional to x.<span>
Hence we can say Y is proportional to x , having (-3) as proportionality Constant. hope this helps</span>
