Let numbers of books be 'b' and numbers of CDs be 'c'
We can set up two equations:
Equation [1] ⇒

Equation [2] ⇒

We are solving for the number of books and the number of CDs bought
When we have two equations in terms of two different variables;

and

, that we need to solve, then this becomes a simultaneous equation problem.
First, rearrange Equation [1] to make either

or

the subject:


Then we substitute

into Equation [2]






Now we know the value of

which is

, substitute this value into

we have

Answer:
Numbers of books = 13
Numbers of CDs = 7
The answer is 3n-4 because 4 is being subtracted
Answer:Answer:
Option (c) is correct.
function representing the increase of bacteria every hour x,
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : A colony contains 1500 bacteria. The population increases at a rate of 115% each hour.
we have to find the function that represents the given scenario.
Let x represents the number of hours elapsed.
Given A colony contains 1500 bacteria
and number of bacteria is increasing at a rate of 115% each hour.
Using formula for Compound interest , we have,
Where A is amount
T is time period
R is rate of interest
Here, P = 1500
T = x hours
R = 115%
Let f(x) be the function representing the increase of bacteria every hour.
Substitute, we have,
Simplify, we get,
Thus, function representing the increase of bacteria every hour x,
X would have to equal 2 because when you multiply that by 7 you get 14 then add 3 and you get 17
