The population of a certain kind of bacteria doubles in size every 5 minutes. The current number of bacteria in the population,

N, is equal to the product of the initial number of bacteria, I, and 2 to the power of n, where n is the number of times the population has doubled.
Initially, 599,737 bacteria are in a petri dish. How many bacteria are in the petri dish after 15 minutes?
A. 9,595,792
B. 4,797,896
C. 2,398,948
D. 3,598,422​

Answer:

B, 4,797,896

Step-by-step explanation:

599,737 multiplied by 2 is 1,199,474 then multiplied by 2 is 2,398,948 then multiplied by 2 is 4,797,896.

I multiplied by 2, 3 times because the population of a certain kind of bacteria doubles in size every 5 minutes and 15/5=3.

Which transformations will produce similar, but not congruent, figures?
navik [9.2K]
B) Parallelogram JKLM is translated and then dilated
as well as c
C) Parallelogram JKLM is dilated and translated

C is the best answer because is size is changing. In all the others nothing is changing except the position which remains congruent and similar but C does not . The sizes changes which makes them not congruent but still similar.

A school survey found that 7 out of 30 students walk to
nika2105 [10]

Answer: 7/145

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that the first student walks to school will be: = 7/30.

The probability of selecting the second student that walks to school will be: = 6/29.

Then we multiply both together and this will be:

= 7/30 × 6/29

= 7/145

Suppose that there are 15 antennas in a store, of which 3 are defective. Assume all the defectives and all the functional antenn
ohaa [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of antenna is 15

Defective antenna is 3

The functional antenna is 15-3=12.

Now, if no two defectives are to be consecutive, then the spaces between the functional antennas must each contain at most one defective antenna.

So,

We line up the 13 good ones, and see where the bad one will fits in

__G __ G __ G __ G __ G __G __ G __ G __ G __ G __ G __ G __G __

Each of the places where there's a line is an available spot for one (and no more than one!) bad antenna.

Then,

There are 14 spot available for the defective and there are 3 defective, so the arrange will be combinational arrangement

ⁿCr= n!/(n-r)!r!

The number of arrangement is

14C3=14!/(14-3)!3!

14C3=14×13×12×11!/11!×3×2

14C3=14×13×12/6

14C3=364ways
