Mathematics

7 0

Answer:

x = 3.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, intercepts made by parallel lines on the transversals are in proportion.

\therefore \frac{AB}{BC} =\frac{EF}{FG}... (1)

AB = BC.... (given)

\implies \frac{AB}{BC} = 1..... (2)

From equations (1) & (2)

1 =\frac{EF}{FG}

{FG}={EF}

Therefore,

7x - 9 = 2x + 7

7x - 2x = 9 + 7

5x = 16

x = 16/5

x = 3.2

Infections seldom start with a single bacterium. Suppose that you cut yourself on a rusty nail that puts 25
Soloha48 [4]

Answer: There would be 12,000 bacteria 8 hours after the initial infection.

Step-by-step explanation: You start with 25 cells and if they divide every 15 minutes, 25 multiplied by 15 gets you 375 cells every quarter of an hour. Then if you multiply that by the 32 quarter hours, you get 12,000 cells. To check that you can also multiply 25 by 15, still 375, then 375 by 4 for each quarter of the hour, then that gets you 1,500 cells every hour. If you multiply that by 8 for the 8 hours they have time to divide, you still get 12,000 cells.

I hope this helps!

Find the Exponential Regression using the table. Write the initial amount, common ratio, and equation for the table.
Triss [41]

Answer:

Initial temperature;

432.76

Common ratio;

-0.067

Equation;

y=432.76e^{-0.067x}

Step-by-step explanation:

In this scenario, the time in minutes represents the independent variable x while the temperature of the pizza represents the dependent variable y.

The analysis is performed in Ms. Excel. The first step is to obtain a scatter plot of the data then finally inserting an exponential trend line to obtain the required equation.

The Ms. Excel output is shown in the attachment below. To obtain the initial temperature we substitute x = 0 in the equation. On the other hand, the common ratio is the exponent in the equation.
