Answer:

0.75 days (im a bit unsure but i tried my best, hope this helps :) )

Step-by-step explanation:

If it takes 8 technicians 36 hours to test 560 samples, find how many technicians can test 525 samples.

8: 560

x: 525

x= 7.5 (which is considered 7)

Then, find how long it takes to sample 525 samples, when 560 are done in 36  hours;

560: 36

525: x

x= 33.75 (which is considered 34 hours)

The last step is to check how long 15 technicians take to sample 525 samples when 8 can do the same number in 34 hours. this is inverse proportion so dont forget to flip one numerator and denominator

8; 34

15; x

it will become

15:34

8: x

x= 18 hours

Divide by 24 for days hence 0.75 days

2.  The common ratio  is 2000/1000 = 2.

3.   Number of bacteria after 7 hours is 1000(2)^(7- 1)

    = 64,000.

4.   1000(2)^(x-1)  > 1,000,000

2^x-1  > 1000

x- 1  log 2 > log 10

x- 1 > 9.96

x > 10.96
