Answer:

8 inches

48 inches

total 56 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

x+6x = 56

7x = 56

Divide by 7

7x/7 = 56/7

x = 8

The smaller piece is x inches or 8 inches

The larger piece is 6x inches or 6*8 =48 inches

8+48 = 56 inches

The total length is 56 inches

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

C) 148.413

Step-by-step explanation:

ƒ(t) = et

Where ƒ(t) = number of bacterials present at a particular time t.

So let's determine the number of bacterial present at 5 hours

ƒ(t) = et

ƒ(5) = e(5)

ƒ(5) = 148.413

Approximately= 148 in whole numbers.

So the number of bacterial present at 5 hours is approximately 148 bacterial.

Let's remember we solved it from the equation ƒ(t) = et .

Thank you
