Add 12 to both sides resulting in 5a = 60 and then divide both sides by 5 which results in a = 12 so your answer will be a = 12

A certain kind of bacteria multiplies at a rate of 150 percent per hour. When a person’s blood has 45,000,000 of these bacteria,
DIA [1.3K]
Initial number of Bacteria = Ao = 100
Number of Bacteria which make the person ill = A = 45,000,000

Growth rate = r = 150% = 1.50 

The equation model for this situation is:

A= A_{o}(1+r)^{t}

Using the values in above equation, we can write:

45000000=100(1+1.5)^{t}  \\  \\ 
450000=(2.5)^{t} \\  \\ 
log(450000)=log((2.5)^{t})  \\  \\ 
log(450000)=t*log(2.5) \\  \\ 
t= \frac{log(450000)}{log(2.5)} \\  \\ 
t=14.21

This means, the person will fall sick after about 14 hours.

match the steps to find the equation of the parabola with focus (-1, -8.75) and directrix y = - 9.25.
choli [55]

Answer:

The matched options to the given problem is below:

Step1: Choose a point on the parabola

Step2: Find the distance from the focus to the point on the parabola.

Step3: Use (x, y).

Find the distance from the point on the parabola to the directrix.

Step4: Set the distance from focus to the point equal to the distance from directrix to the point.

Step5: Square both sides and simplify.

Step6: Write the equation of the parabola.

Step by step Explanation:

Given that the focus (-1,2) and directrix x=5

To find the equation of the parabola:

By using focus directrix property of parabola

Let S be a point and d be line

focus (-1,2) and directrix x=5 respectively

If P is any point on the parabola then p is equidistant from S and d

Focus S=(-1,2), d:x-5=0]

If babe ruth averaged 46 home runs per year, how many home runs did he hit in 12 years
bixtya [17]

Answer:

He hit 552 home runs in 12 years

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we will follow the steps below;

Using proportion;

Let x be the number of home runs he hits in 12 years

46 home runs = 1 year

    x                  = 12

cross -multiply

x × 1  = 46× 12

x =  552 home runs

Therefore, he hit 552 home runs in 12 years
