Bacteria of species A and species B are kept in a single environment, where they are fed two nutrients. Each day the environment
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

We require 4,550 of species A and 1,460 of species B that can coexist in the environment so that all the nutrients are consumed each day

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n₁ be the population of A required and n₂ be the population of B required.

Now we require 2 units of the first nutrient for species A and one unit of the first nutrient for species B. The total nutrients required by species A is 2n₁ and that by species B is 1n₂ = n₂. So, the total nutrients required by both species A and B is 2n₁ + n₂. Since this equals the quantity of the first nutrient which is 10,560, then  2n₁ + n₂ = 10,560 (1)

Now we require 5 units of the second nutrient for species A and 6 units of the second nutrient for species B. The total nutrients required by species A is 5n₁ and that by species B is 6n₂. So, the total nutrients required by both species A and B is 5n₁ + 6n₂. Since this equals the quantity of the first nutrient which is 31,510, then  5n₁ + 6n₂ = 31,510 (2).

So, we have two simultaneous equations which we would solve to find the populations of A and B which satisfy both equations.

2n₁ + n₂ = 10,560  (1)

5n₁ + 6n₂ = 31,510 (2)

From (1) n₂ = 10,560 - 2n₁ (3)

Substituting equation (3) into (2), we have

5n₁ + 6(10,560 - 2n₁) = 31,510

expanding the brackets, we have

5n₁ + 63,360 - 12n₁ = 31,510

collecting like terms, we have

5n₁ - 12n₁ = 31,510 - 63,360

simplifying, we have

- 7n₁ = -31,850

dividing both sides by -7, we have

n₁ = -31,850/-7

n₁ = 4,550

Substituting n₁ = 4,550 into (3), we have

n₂ = 10,560 - 2(4,550)

n₂ = 10,560 - 9,100

n₂ = 1,460

So, we require 4,550 of species A and 1,460 of species B that can coexist in the environment so that all the nutrients are consumed each day

Please help me please help me
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

AM=26

Step-by-step explanation:

Since M is the midpoint of the number line, this means that each side is equal to each other. The midpoint evenly splits it up in half, and since each side is equal that means we can set up an equation making x+20 and 5x-4 the same value.

x+20 = 5x-4

Now you simply carry over, so that x is all by itself. I carried the -4 to the other side first. To carry it over you have to add 4 on both sides, leaving this:

x+24=5x

Then I carried the x to the other side by subtracting -x (or if it helps, imagine an invisible one next to the x so it would be -1x) on both sides.

This gives me: 24=4x

Now that all the x's are by themelves, we can divide 24 by 4 to get our x value:

6=x

Now all we need to do is plug that in for the length of AM:

6+20, which equals our final answer 26

I hope you found this helpful :)
