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.

Find the ordered pair whose x-coordinate is 5. 4x=6y+8
sukhopar [10]

(6, 2 )

substitute x = 5 into the equation and solve for y

6y + 8 = 20 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

6y = 12 ( divide both sides by 6 )

y = \frac{12}{6} = 2

the ordered pair is (5, 2 )

This table shows a proportional relationship between the number of cups of bananas and apples used for a smoothie.
mixer [17]

Answer:

For every 1 cup of banana you have to add 6 cups of apples. So it means there's six times as much apples as there is bananas. If there's 3 cups of apples, which is half of 6, it means the banana would now also have to be halved from 1 to half a cup.

Whatever you do to the bananas or the apples, you have to maintain the same ratio. Which is that apples is 6 times as much as bananas.

So 1 cup of apple would need to be divided by 6, to get banana. That would be approximately 1÷6= 0.167 cups
