- Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Systems</u>
y = 2x
x = -y + 6
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>
<em>Substitution</em>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: y = 2(-y + 6)
- Distribute 2: y = -2y + 12
- Isolate <em>y</em> terms: 3y = 12
- Isolate <em>y</em>: y = 4
<u>Step 3: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Define equation: x = -y + 6
- Substitute in <em>y</em>: x = -4 + 6
- Add: x = 2
Let n = minutes since 12:00 pm when Malory catches up to Dori.
Dori travels
(50 steps/min)*(n minutes) = 50n steps
Malory begins walking at 12:20 pm, so she walks for (n - 20) minutes. She travels
(90 steps/min)*(n - 20 min) = 90n - 1800 steps
Equate the steps traveled by Dori and Malory.
90n - 1800 = 50n
40n = 1800
n = 45 min
The time corresponding to n = 45 min is 12:45 pm
Answer: 12:45 pm
Let us assume the initial number of bacteria in the culture = xAfter 1 hour,The number of bacteria = 185x/100 = 1.85xAfter 2 hours,The number of bacteria = (185 * 1.85x)/100 = 3.42xSo3.42x = 12500x = 12500/3.42 = 3654.97 = 3655From the above deduction, we can conclude that the initial number of bacteria in the culture is 3655.
