Answer:
3m + 4c
Step-by-step explanation:
Whenever a word problem says the word earn that means the slope, also known as the rate of change, will be positive. Knowing this you can determine that both the caramel and milk chocolate slopes will be positive. After figuring all that out the only thing left to do is to make the equation. You know you have two slopes, and each slope needs a variable, so you will have to look back at the question. It is given that m represents the milk chocolate and c represents the caramel. Now all you have to do is make the slope the coefficient to the corresponding variable. The milk chocolates are 3 dollars, so the 3 goes in front of the m and the caramel chocolates are 4 dollars, so teh 4 goes in front of the 4. Since both slopes are positive no negatives or minus signs will be used in the equation. Knowing all this information you can now create the expression 3m + 4c.
Answer: After 13 (12) hours, there would be 6,500 bacteria across the culture.
Step-by-step explanation:
The bacteria grew by 500 each 4 hours, so to know how much there would be 13 hours later:
Simple, add 500 bacteria to every 4 hours until you reach 13 hours. 4 = 5.5k, 8 = 6k, 12 = 6.5k. Now, 12 is closer to 13 than anything we would've gotten if we kept going.
And there's your answer.
Answer:
c. an algorithm
Step-by-step explanation:
Most math problems are best solved using an algorithm. Certainly, converting numbers from one form to another is easily done that way.
_____
The integer part is the whole-number quotient of the division. The fractional part is the remainder divided by the denominator:
39/8 = 32/8 + 7/8 = 4 7/8
2 out of 50 are defective.
Divide 2 by 50: 2/50 = 0.04
Now multiply the total quantity by that:
2000 x 0.04 = 80
80 are likely to be defective.
