Answer:

1. 252N = (2^{2} x 3^{2} x 7^{1})N

2. Factor = 2^{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the starting population size for organisms A and B be represented by N.

For organism A;

Day 0: N

Day 1: 2N

Day 2: 2^{2}N

Day 3: 2^{3}N

Day 4: 2^{4}N

Day 5: 2^{5}N

Day 6: 2^{4}N

Day 7: 2^{3}N

Day 8: 2^{2}N

For organism B;

Day 0: N

Day 1: 2N

Day 2: 2^{2}N

Day 3: 2^{3}N

Day 4: 2^{4}N

Day 5: 2^{5}N

Day 6: 2^{6}N

Day 7: 2^{7}N

Day 8: 2^{8}N

1. After the eight days, organism B's population is larger than organism A's population by;

2^{8}N - 2^{2}N = 256N - 4N

               = 252N

               = (2^{2} x 3^{2} x 7^{1})N

2. Organism A's population grows by 2^{5}.

(2.5 hours is 150 minutes)
14 cars          x cars
--------------- = -------------------
45 minutes    150 minutes

Then solve.

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

163 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

set up a ratio based on 49 miles in 1 hour (60 minutes):

let 'd' = distance in 3hrs, 20 min

3hrs, 20 min = 200 minutes

49/60 = d/200

cross-multiply:

60d = 9800

d = 163.3
