Answer:

  1102.8 mm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

We presume your equation is intended to be ...

  y = 112(1.58)^t

Since t is in minutes, fill in the given value and do the arithmetic:

  y = 112(1.58)^5 = 112(9.84658) ≈ 1102.8

The approximate size of the bacteria strain will be 1102.8 mm^2 after 5 minutes.

At a certain time of the day, a tree 15 m tall casts a shadow of 12 m, while a second tree casts a shadow of 20 m. How tall is t
Anna35 [415]
We can write a proportion: 15 m is to 12 m as some other height h is to 20 m

So we get
\frac{15}{12}=\frac{h}{20}
\rightarrow 15*20=12h
\rightarrow 12h=300
\rightarrow h=25

So the second tree is 25 m tall.
