Answer:

C. 270 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

-The growth of bacteria follows an exponential distribution expressed as:

P_t=P_oe^{rt}

Where:

  • t=time
  • r=rate of growth
  • P_o is the initial size and'
  • P_t is the size at time t

Given the size at time t and time zero, we substitute in the function to calculate the rate of growth r:

30=10e^{2r}\\\\3=e^{2r}\\\\r=\frac{In \ 3}{2}\\\\=0.54931

#we use the calculated rate of growth to determine time at t=6:

P_t=10e^{6\times 0.54931}\\\\\\=270.00625\approx 270\ grams

Hence, the bacteria's size at t=6 is 270 grams

Which triangle congruence postulates can be used to prove that Triangle ABD is congruent to Triangle CDB in Rectangle ABCD?
kramer

Answer:

SSS, SAS, ASA, AAS, HL

Step-by-step explanation:

1. SSS (side side side) says if 3 sides of one triangle are congruent to 3 sides of another triangle, then the 2 triangles are congruent.

2. SAS (side angle side) says if 2 sides and the included angle of a triangle are congruent to 2 sides and the included angle of another triangle, then the 2 triangles are congruent.

3. ASA (angle side angle) says if 2 angles and the included side of a triangle are congruent to 2 angles and the included side of another triangle, then the 2 triangles are congruent.

4. AAS (angle angle side) says if 2 angles and the none included side of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, then the 2 triangles are congruent.

5 HL (hypotenuse leg) says if 2 right triangles that have a congruent hypotenuse and a corresponding congruent leg, then the 2 triangles are congruent.

Because it is a rectangle, the sides are equal, and they share the same hypotenuse.

A spinner and 6 cards are shown below:
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

1 over 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The spinner has 3 segments and he spun it 1 time.  So, he has a 1 in 3 chance of landing on green.

There are 6 cards so he has a 1 and 6 chance of picking up the yellow card.    

Multiply those and you have 1 over 18

Done!
