Answer:

243

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Day 1 = 3

Day 2 = 9

After the 2nd day, number of cells continue to triple ;

Day 3 = 9^3

P(t) = 9 * 3^3

P(t) = 9 * 27

= 243

Solve this x²+8/10 -x = 10/2

AysviL [449]

$x^2+\frac{8}{10}-x=\frac{10}{2}\\
x^2-x+\frac{8}{10}-\frac{10}{2}=0\\
x^2-x+\frac{8}{10}-\frac{50}{10}=0\\
x^2-x-\frac{42}{10}=0\\
x^2-x+\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{4}-\frac{42}{10}=0\\
(x-\frac{1}{2})^2=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{42}{10}\\
(x-\frac{1}{2})^2=\frac{5}{20}+\frac{84}{20}\\
(x-\frac{1}{2})^2=\frac{89}{20}\\
x-\frac{1}{2}=\sqrt{\frac{89}{20}} \vee x-\frac{1}{2}=-\sqrt{\frac{89}{20}}\\
x=\frac{1}{2}+\frac{\sqrt{89}}{\sqrt{20}} \vee x=\frac{1}{2}-\frac{\sqrt{89}}{\sqrt{20}}\\


$
$x=\frac{1}{2}+\frac{\sqrt{89}}{2\sqrt{5}} \vee x=\frac{1}{2}-\frac{\sqrt{89}}{2\sqrt5}}\\
x=\frac{1}{2}+\frac{\sqrt{445}}{10} \vee x=\frac{1}{2}-\frac{\sqrt{445}}{10}}\\
x=\frac{5+\sqrt{445}}{10} \vee x=\frac{5-\sqrt{445}}{10}}\\$

How do i solve y=20x+500

Vesnalui [34]

<span>Simplifying y = 20x + 500 Reorder the terms: y = 500 + 20x Solving y = 500 + 20x Solving for variable 'y'. Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right. Simplifying y = 500 + 20x</span>
