Answer:

There are 102 coins total:

34 Quarters

20 loonies

48 toonies

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming money is counted in coins instead of value, it can be solved like this.

1. find a common denominator for 1/3 and 1/5. We can use 15. So, of the money collected, 5/15 were quarters and 3/15 were loonies. This makes 7/15 toonies. If there are 48 toonies, we can divide this by 7 to find the value of 1/15. 48/7 = 6 6/7. Multiply this number by 15 (for each value) and you get 102 6/7.

There are 102 coins total:

34 Quarters

20 loonies

48 toonies

A colony of bacteria triples in link every 10 minutes. It's length is now 1 mm. How long will be in 40 minutes

Nuetrik [128]

If the bacteria is tripling every 10 minutes, that means the "rate of increase" on that period is 200%, so if say the current amount is "c", 200% of "c" is just 2c, so c + 2c is 3c, a tripled amount.

$\bf \textit{Periodic Exponential Growth}\\\\
A=I(1 + r)^{\frac{t}{p}}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\
I=\textit{initial amount}\to &1\\
r=rate\to 2\%\to \frac{200}{100}\to &2.00\\
t=\textit{elapsed time}\to &40\\
p=period\to &10
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
A=1(1 + 2)^{\frac{40}{10}}$
