Petri Dish A sees a double ever 10 minutes
Petri Dish B sees a double ever 6 minutes
Consequences
A doubles 60 / 10 = 6 times.
B doubles 60 / 6 = 10 times.
Solution
If you work best with numbers then suppose there are 100 bacteria in both dishes at the beginning
A = 100 * 2^6
B = 100 * 2^10
A will have 100 * 64 = 6400 bacteria growing inside A
B will have 100 * 1024 = 102400 bacteria growing inside B
B/A = 102400 / 6400 = 16
There are 16 times as many in B than in A. <<<< Answer
Mai made 12 successful free throws.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Free throws made by Mai = 49 free throw
Successful throws = 25%
Number of successful throws = 25% of free throws
Number of successful throws = 
Number of successful throws = 
Rounding off to nearest whole number;
Number of successful throws = 12
Mai made 12 successful free throws.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If 3⁄4 gallons of water come out of a hose in 15 minutes, to calculate the rate of water that comes out in an hour (60 minutes), we will use the expression;
3/4 gallons = 15 minutes
x gallons = 60minutes
cross multiply
15x = 3/4 * 60
15x = 180/4
15x = 45
x = 45/15
x = 3/1
x = 3:1
Hence the water rate in gallons per hour is 3 gallons per hour
The perimeter of a rectangle is found by multiplying the length by 2 and the width by 2 and adding them together.
P = 2L + 2W
Filling in the information given we can find the width:
16.8 = 2(3.6) + 2W
16.8 = 7.2 + 2W
2w = 16.8 - 7.2
2w = 9.6
w = 9.6 / 2
w = 4.8 in.
