Answer:
x = 7, y = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
solve for y for the first equation
2x + y = 20
-2x -2x , eliminate 2x
y = 20-2x
now that we have found y, substitute the y in for the second equation
-5y = -6x + 12
-5(20-2x) = -6x + 12, we just changed y into 20-2x. remember that we are multiplying all of 20 - 2x by -5
-100+10x = -6x + 12, we multiplied everything from the parathesis by -5
+100 + 100, eliminate -100
10x = -6x + 112
+6x +6x , eliminate 6x
16x = 112 , solve for x
x = 7
then y = 20 - 2x = 20 - 2*7 = 6
check:
2 * 7 + 6 = 20
20 = 20
-5 * 6 = -6 * 7 + 12
-30 = -42 + 12
-30 = -30
What we know:
-volume of 10,000 drops is 10 fluid ounces
Step 1: Divide 10,000 by 10 (to find how much we need to divide 10 by to get our answer)
10,000/10=1,000
Step 2: Divide 10 by 1,000 (to find our answer)
10/1,000=0.01
Our answer is 0.01. The volume of 10 drops of liquid is 0.01 fluid ounces.
Answer:
24 CDs
Step-by-step explanation:
if he dropped half of his CDs then the other half is in the equation. 12×12=24 the 6 is just there to throw you off...

The population after 20 weeks will be 403.42
in which
is the initial population.
Given that the growth rate of bacteria at any time t is proportional to the number present at t and triples in 1 week.
We are required to find the number of bacteria present after 10 weeks.
let the number of bacteria present at t is x.
So,
dx/dt∝x
dx/dt=kx
1/x dx=k dt
Now integrate both sides.
=
log x=kt+log c----------1
Put t=0
log
=0 +log c (
shows the population in beginning)
Cancelling log from both sides.
c=
So put c=
in 1
log x=kt+log 
log x=log
+log 
log x=log 
x=
We have been given that the population triples in a week so we have to put the value of x=2
and t=1 to get the value of k.
2
=
2=
log 2=k
We have to now put the value of t=20 and k=log 2 ,to get the population after 20 weeks.
x=

x=

x=
x=403.42
Hence the population after 20 weeks will be 403.42
in which
is the initial population.
