The population of the bacteria 96 minutes from now is 12.
1, 3, 9, 27, 81, 243, 729, 2187, 6561, 19683, 59049, 177147, 531441, 1594323.
If this is the proper sequence pattern, we add up all the numbers to get a sum.
The total sum is 2391457.
Answer:
32
Step-by-step explanation:
32 × 1 = 32
8 × 4 = 32
Therefore, the LCM is 32
(x + y)^2 = (x^2 - 2xy + y^2)
First distribute the ^2 on the left side of the equation to each term inside the parenthesis:
x^2+ 2xy + y^2
Now pick one of the variables to solve for and isolate it:
(solving for x)
x^2 + 2xy + y^2 = x^2 - 2xy + y^2
x^2+ 2xy = x^2 - 2xy
2xy = -2xy
-x = x
x = 0
When you solve for y in the equation it will turn out to be 0 as well
