Jill lost 1/3
Bill lost 1/6
and Jack lost 1/4
Make a common denominator - let's use 12
Jill lost 4/12
Bill lost 2/12
Jack lost 3/12
Add them together = 9/12
reduce by dividing by 3.
total of 3/4 spilt
48 divided into 4 parts then multiplied by 3 of those parts
48 / 4 * 3 = 36
Answer: 32
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 18 boys and 14 girls (4 more boys than girls. 32 students total.
Answer:
x= - 18/7 - 1/7y, y
or if you are solving for y= -18-7x, x

Answer:
48 times
Step-by-step explanation:
From the above question, we know that:
2 times = 1 kg of fertilizer
A crop requires 24 kg of fertilizer
Hence:
1 kg of fertilizer = 2 times
24 kg of fertilizer = x
Cross Multiply
x = 24 kg × 2 times/1 kg
x = 48 times
She need to fill the flask 48 times to make the required amount of fertilizer for the crop
Answer:
- P(t) = 100·2.3^t
- 529 after 2 hours
- 441 per hour, rate of growth at 2 hours
- 5.5 hours to reach 10,000
Step-by-step explanation:
It often works well to write an exponential expression as ...
value = (initial value)×(growth factor)^(t/(growth period))
(a) Here, the growth factor for the bacteria is given as 230/100 = 2.3 in a period of 1 hour. The initial number is 100, so we can write the pupulation function as ...
P(t) = 100·2.3^t
__
(b) P(2) = 100·2.3^2 = 529 . . . number after 2 hours
__
(c) P'(t) = ln(2.3)P(t) ≈ 83.2909·2.3^t
P'(2) = 83.2909·2.3^2 ≈ 441 . . . bacteria per hour
__
(d) We want to find t such that ...
P(t) = 10000
100·2.3^t = 10000 . . . substitute for P(t)
2.3^t = 100 . . . . . . . . divide by 100
t·log(2.3) = log(100)
t = 2/log(2.3) ≈ 5.5 . . . hours until the population reaches 10,000
