Answer: 78 ounces of dough was bought.
52 ounces of sauce was bought.
There were 13 guests .
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = Number of guests
As per given, For each person 6 ounces of dough and 4 ounces of sauce is required.
i.e. Total ounces of dough and sauce together required = 6+4=10
The dough and sauce is 130 ounces all together.
i.e.
Divide both sides by 10 , we get
x= 13
i.e. there were 13 guests .
Total ounces of dough = 6 x ( Number of guests) = 6 x 13= 78 ounces
hence, 78 ounces of dough was bought.
Total ounces of sauce = 4 x ( Number of guests) = 4 x 13= 52 ounces
hence, 52 ounces of sauce was bought.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a. This is a decay function, since the final value (A) gets smaller and smaller as the days pass by.
b. The bacteria is decreasing by 75% per day exponentially.
c. In order to calculate the amount of bacteria in a week we simply substitute the variable t for 7 (7 days in a week) and solve for A
A = 200(0.75)^7
A = 26.7 bacteria after 1 week
d. In order to calculate this we need to substitute the variable A with 100 and solve for t
100 = 200(0.75)^t ... divide both side by 200
0.5 = 0.75^t
= t
2.4 = t
It will be half the initial amount after 2.4 days.
