Answer:
c = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
3(c+5)=12
3 × c = 3c
3 × 5 = 15
3c + 15 = 12
<u> - 15 -15</u>
3c = -3
c = -3 ÷ 3 = -1
Check:
3(-1+5)=12
-3 + 15 = 12
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
we have a exponential function of the form

where
y is the population of bacteria
a is the initial value
r is the rate of growth
x is the number of hours
we have
a=3,000 bacteria

For x=2, y=3,300
substitute


Apply square root both sides




substitute in the equation


<u><em>Predict how many bacteria will be present after 16 hours</em></u>
For x=16 hours
substitute


1/6 of 3/4 mile = 1/6 * 3/4 = 1/8 = 0.125 mile
The correct result would be 1/8 or 0.125 mile.
Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
2x² - y ← substitute x = 3 and y = - 2 into the expression
= 2(3)² - (- 2)
= 2(9) + 2
= 18 + 2
= 20
