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

What is the difference in the areas of a square and rectangle if the rectangle has side lengths 2 less and 2 more than

kirill [66]

Answer:

$A(square) = x*x= x^2$

$A(rectangle) = (a-2) (a+2) = a^2 +2a- 2a-4 = a^2 -4$

$A(rectangle) = A(square) -4$

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we assume that the square have sides of length x.

So then the area for this square is given by $A(square) = x*x= x^2$

We have a rectangle and on this case we have this information :" the rectangle has side lengths 2 less and 2 more than a square"

So then the sides of the rectangle needs to have lengths a-2 and a+2, and if we find the area for the rectangle we got:

$A(rectangle) = (a-2) (a+2) = a^2 +2a- 2a-4 = a^2 -4$

And as we can see th area for the rectangl is 4 units less than the area for the rectangle:

$A(rectangle) = A(square) -4$

Sekhar gives a quarter of his sweets to Renu and then gives 5 sweets to Raji. He has

Feliz [49]

Answer:

16 sweets

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of sweet that Sekhar had = x

Sweets given to Renu = (1/4) of x = $\frac{1}{4}x$

Sweets given to Raji = 5

Remaining sweets = 7

$x = \frac{1}{4}x +5 + 7\\\\x -\frac{1}{4}x = 12\\\\\frac{4*x}{1*4}x-\frac{1}{4}x = 12\\\\\frac{4x}{4}-\frac{1}{4}x= 12\\\\\frac{3x}{4}=12\\\\x = 12*\frac{4}{3}\\\\x=4*4\\\\x=16$
