First, put parenthesis around the first two numbers and the last two numbers.
(20g³+24g²) (-15g-18)
Then, take out the greatest common factor of both parenthesis.
4g²(5g+6)-3(5g+6)
You then separate the numbers outside the parenthesis and the numbers in the parenthesis.
(5g+6) (4g²-3)
Then you simplify the second set of numbers. Since the set of numbers can't be simplified, you would leave this problem as it is. I hope this makes sense.
You want to know how long it'll take for the bacteria to grow
to (800/500) = 1.6 times their initial population.
The number of double-times it'll take is
[ log(1.6) / (log(2) ] = 0.6781 .
The double-time for these particular critters is 12 hours,
so it'll take them
0.6781 x 12 hours = 8.137 hours
= 8 hours 8.2 minutes .
Answer:
20%
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Subtract starting value minus the final value (decrease)
Step 2: Divide the decrease by the original number
Step 3: Multiply the result by 100 to get a percent decrease
Therefore, the percent decrease of the price of paper per package is 20%
<em>Note: If the percentage is negative, it means there was an increase and not a decrease.</em>
The answer is 2.
This is because the line crosses the x axis in 2 different places.
Hope this helps!
To solve this problem you must apply a theorem called: Intersecting secant theorem. The proccedure is shown below:
1) For the figure shown on the left:
(5)(x+5)=(6)(4+6)
5x+25=60
5x=60-25
x=35/5
x=7
2) For the figure shown on the right:
(3)(3+5)=(4)(x+4)
24=4x+16
24-16=4x
8=4x
8/4=x
x=2
