Answer:

680 Bacteria

Step-by-step explanation:

378 is evenly divisible by 126, which is equal to 3.

The first 126 minutes, the 85 bacteria will double to 170 bacteria.

The second 126 minutes (252 minutes total), the 170 bacteria will double to 340 bacteria.

The final 126 minutes (378 minutes total), the 340 bacteria will double to 680 bacteria total.

If this helped, a brainliest would be greatly appreciated!

Step 2: Simplify the left side of the above equation using Logarithmic Rule 3:

displaymath123

Step 3: Simplify the left side of the above equation: Since Ln(e)=1, the equation reads

displaymath127

Ln(80) is the exact answer and x=4.38202663467 is an approximate answer because we have rounded the value of Ln(80)..

Check: Check your answer in the original equation.

Simplify the expression

Ronch [10]

Answer:

(3 x)/(5 x + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

(3 x^2)/(5 x^2 + 2 x)

Hint: | Factor common terms out of 5 x^2 + 2 x.

Factor x out of 5 x^2 + 2 x:

(3 x^2)/(x (5 x + 2))

Hint: | For all exponents, a^n a^m = a^(n + m). Apply this to (3 x^2)/(x (5 x + 2)).

Combine powers. (3 x^2)/(x (5 x + 2)) = (3 x^(2 - 1))/(5 x + 2):

(3 x^(2 - 1))/(5 x + 2)

Hint: | Evaluate 2 - 1.

2 - 1 = 1:

Answer: (3 x)/(5 x + 2)

Multiply polynomials

Burka [1]

Answer -2x^4 - 2x^3 + 22x^2 - 30x + 12

Here's your solution

=> (2x^2 - 4x + 2) - (x^2 + 3x - 6)

=> (2x^2 - 4x + 2) -x^2 - 3x + 6

=> firstly multiple whole with -x^2

=> -x^2(2x^2 - 4x + 2) = -2x^4 + 4x^3 - 2x^2

=> now with -3x

=> -3x(2x^2 - 4x + 2) = -6x^3 +12x^2 -6x

=> with 6

=> 6(2x^2 - 4x + 2) = 12x^2 - 24x + 12

=> now add all terms

=> -2x^4 - 2x^3 + 22x^2 - 30x + 12

hope it helps and your day will be full of happiness ^_^
