Imagine cutting up a pizza into 5 slices

If you take 2 slices, then you take 2 out of the 5, so the fractional amount you took is 2/5 of the full pizza.

If your friend takes 3 slices, then she or he takes 3/5 of the full pizza

Adding the two fractional amounts should get us back to 1 full pizza, which is why 2/5+3/5 = 1.

-----------

We could say this:

2/5 + 3/5 = (2+3)/5 = 5/5 = 1

Dividing any number over itself, as long it's not zero, always leads to 1.

So that's why 5/5 = 1.

Factors of 21: 1, 3, 7
Factors of 60: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

A population of bacteria is initially 2,000. After three hours the population is 1,000.
lina2011 [118]

The population starts at 2000, so a=2000.

We also know that the population in 3 hours is 1000, so we can setup the equation:

     2000 b^3 = 1000

This gets us:

    b^3 = 1/2

And taking the cube root of both sides gives us:

    b ≈ 0.7937005259841

Rounding that to 4 places, we have:

    f(t) = 2000 (0.7937)^t

No, she is incorrect (in my opinion) i think the answer is :
1/2 m - 4 = 5
4+5 = 9 so
half of 18= 9
so the answer is 18?
