266.4 - 8.5 - 24 will give you the answer of 233.9
Answer:
2 hours: 3968 <u>[I don't understand the $ sign in the answer box]</u>
At midnight: 12137
Step-by-step explanation:
The bacteria are increasing by 15% every hour. So for every hour we will have what we started with, plus 15% more.
The "15% more" can be represented mathematically with (1 + 0.15) or 1.15. Let's call this the "growth factor" and assign it the variable b. b is (1 + percent increase).
Since this per hour, in 1 hour we'll have (3000)*(1.15) = 3450
At the end of the second hour we're increased by 15% again:
(3450)*(1.15) = 3968.
Each additional hour add another (1.15) factor, If we assign a to be the starting population, this can be represented by:
P = a(1.15)^t for this sample that increase 15% per hour. t is time, in hours.
If a represents the growth factor, and P is the total population, the general expression is
P = ab^t
Using this for a = 3000 and b = 1.15, we can find the total population at midnight after starting at 2PM. That is a 10 hour period, so t = 10
P = (3000)*(1.15)^10
P = 12137
The converse would be If x² = 100 then x = -10
So essentially if the conditional statement is p → q then the converse is q → p (In essence, the converse of a conditional statement is formed by interchanging the hypothesis and the conclusion.)
Answer:
1395 is the lower bound because 1395 rounded to the nearest 10 is 1400 but 1394 rounded to the nearest 10 is 1390.

Answer:
EF / LM = 1 / 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation are reflection, translation, dilation and rotation.
Dilation is the enlargement or reduction in the size of a figure. If a point A(x, y) is dilated by a scale factor of k, the new point is at A'(kx, ky).
Translation is the movement of a point right, left, up or down. If a point A(x, y) is translated a units left and b units down, the new point is at A'(x - a, y - b).
Translation preserves the size and shape of an object. Dilation preserves the shape but not the size.
Cdef maps to jklm with the transformation (x,y) to (4x,4y) to (x-4,y-9).
CDEF was first dilated by a scale factor of 4 to get (4x,4y) before it was translated by (x-4,y-9). Since dilation changes the size of the figure, hence JKLM would be 4 times the size of CDEF. Therefore:
LM / EF = 4
EF / LM = 1 / 4
