Answer:
look at step by step
Step-by-step explanation:
A) That is the number of bacteria that originally started in the culture
B) That is the rate at which the bacteria will reproduce
C) 1000 represents the number of bacteria at the beginning of the second culture.
The first study started with more bacteria, and will grow faster because of this
I would say yes and no because estimations aren't exact, they're close to the correct value. Trent's estimation is correct since 53+12=65, if we were looking for the exact distance, Trent would be wrong because there are fractions too, so the exact value would be 66 (5/12) or 65 (17/12).
Hope this helped :)
Equations:
2x+105=-3x+130
<em>subtract</em><em> </em><em>2x</em><em> </em><em>from</em><em> </em><em>both</em><em> </em><em>sides</em><em> </em>
<em>105</em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>-5x</em><em>+</em><em>130</em>
<em>Subtract</em><em> </em><em>130</em><em> </em><em>from</em><em> </em><em>both</em><em> </em><em>sides</em>
<em>-5x</em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>-25</em>
<em>isolate</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>variable</em>
<em>x</em><em>=</em><em>5</em><em> </em>
<u>Plug</u><u> </u><u>back</u><u> </u><u>in</u>
<u>2</u><u>(</u><u>5</u><u>)</u><u>+</u><u>105</u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>-3</u><u>(</u><u>5</u><u>)</u><u>+</u><u>130</u>
