Answer:
The bacteria population will change with a growth factor of 1/12 for every half an hour or 1/12 per 30 minutes. (I don't know what the options are, but anything related to the answer I gave should be right.)
Step-by-step explanation:
Simple mathematics should get you the right answer. Here we are dealing with a fraction in a fraction. The first scenario should look like this: <u>1/6 / 1</u>. Basically, that looks like one-sixth over one. Obviously, if we divide 1/6 by 1, we would get 1/6 itself again and we want to know what growth factor the population changes by for every half an hour. There are <u>30 minutes</u> in half an hour and <u>60 minutes</u> in one hour. Let's use the simplified terms to our advantage. Now, our first scenario should look like this: <u>1/6 / 60</u>. Looks better now doesn't it? (Check the linked image to see the full scenario and how I did it in this next part.) For me, I divided 60 by 30 to get the scale factor, which is 2, then I divide 2 by 1/6 to get 1/12. Finally, we have 1/12 per half an hour! If I am wrong, please let me know and I hope this helps! :D
Answer:
85%
Step-by-step explanation:
The students who read less than six magazines would be placed in the intervals: 0-1, 2-3, and 4-5 on the graph. Adding up the total amount in those intervals gives us:
2 + 15 = 17
So, using the answer from b, we can say that 17/20 kids read magazines. Now, we need to convert it into a percent by multiplying by 100:
17/20 *100
17 * 5
85%
24 is the answer you are looking for
Answer: A. $907.10
B. $628.236
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first 40 hours, Ms.Donaldson will earn: = 40 × $18.80 = $752.0
We are informed that Ms.Donaldson worked 45.5 hours, this means that she worked an extra 5.5 hours. The amount paid for the extra hour will be:
= 5.5 × 1.5 × 18.8
= $155.10
The amount she earned will be:
= $752.0 + $155.10
= $907.10
B. A health incurrence payment of $34.55 was deducted from Ms.Donaldson's earnings for the week. Therefore, the amount she will have after the deduction will be:
= $907.10 - $34.55
= $872.55
After the incurrence deduction, payroll taxes equal to 28% of the balance were deducted. What was the amount that Ms.Donaldson received afterwards?
This will be:
= $872.55 - (28% × $872.55)
= $872.55 - (0.28 × $872.55)
= $872.55 - $244.314
= $628.236
