24 + 3x = 3x + 3(7 - 1)
Eliminate the parentheses: 24 + 3x = 3x + 3(6)
24 + 3x = 3x + 18
Subtract 3x from each side: <em>24 = 18</em>
Look at that for a second. Can ANY value of 'x' make 24 equal to 18 ?
I don't think so.
There's NO number that makes the equation a true statement.
That's just another way to say: "The equation has NO solution."
If 12 is 20%, then 24 is 40%, then 36 is 60%, then 48 is 80%, then 60 is 100%
So there are 60 questions on the test.
<span>The bacteria in a certain culture double every 7.1 hours.
The culture has 6,500 bacteria at the start. How much after 4 hrs
:
Using the formula: A = Ao*2^(t/d) where
A = amt after t time
Ao = initial amt (t=0)
t = time of action
d = doubling time of the bacteria
;
A = 6500*2^(4/7.1)
A = 6500 * 1.4777
A = 9605 bacteria after 4 hrs</span>
The volume of a cone is 1/3 pi*r^2 * h. Rearranging for height gives h = 3v / pi*r^2 = (3*294.38) / (3.14*7.5^2) = 5.00 (answer B)
