How many bacteria will there be in 4.5 hours? In 5 hours?

1 answer:

4 0

Answer:

4.5 hours in minutes = 270

Every 45 minutes, bacteria triples

You start with 50

Divide 270 (total time) by 45 (every time bacteria triples)

270/45 = 6

36,450 bacteria

So with this, I will be using the substitution method. With the first equation, substitute (y+3) into the x variable and solve for y:

$y+3+y=7\\2y+3=7\\2y=4\\y=2$

Next, now that we have the value of y, substitute it into either equation to solve for x:

$x+2=7\\x=5\\\\x=2+3\\x=5$

<u>And this is how you get your final answer (5,2).</u>
