Answer:

The answer is 51,200 bacterium.

Step-by-step explanation: So you need to figure out the time between 12 and 6pm, then divide it by 40. 12-6 is 360 minutes, you divide by 40 and you get 9 divisions. Multiply the 100 x 2=200, 200 x 2 =400, and so on for 9 times.

You get a result of 51,200 bacterium.

Solve the equation -15=a/5 <br> A=-3<br> A=-20<br> A=-10<br> A=-75
agasfer [191]

To solve any equation, you do whatever you need to do 
to wind up with the unknown quantity all alone on one side.
BUT ... whatever you do to one side of the equation, you must
also do to the other side.

Here, we have the
he original equation:           -15  =  a/5

Multiply each side by 5 :     -75  =  a

and bada-bing, THERE's the solution !

RideAnS [48]

Answer:

Hey,

\rm \: =6x^2+19x+10

Step-by-step explanation:

=(2x+5)(3x+2)

=(2x)(3x)+(2x)(2)+(5)(3x)+(5)(2)

=6x^2+4x+15x+10

=6x^2+19x+10(ANS)

Help me with question a please ! With full workings !

A)


\bf \textit{distance between 2 points}\\ \quad \\&#10;\begin{array}{lllll}&#10;&x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\&#10;%  (a,b)&#10;Q&({{ 0}}\quad ,&{{ 2}})\quad &#10;%  (c,d)&#10;P&({{ 0.5}}\quad ,&{{ 0}})&#10;\end{array}\qquad &#10;%  distance value&#10;d = \sqrt{({{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}})^2 + ({{ y_2}}-{{ y_1}})^2}

\bf QP=\sqrt{(0.5-0)^2+(0-2)^2}\implies QP=\sqrt{0.5^2+2^2}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;QP=\sqrt{\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^2+4}\implies QP=\sqrt{ \frac{1^2}{2^2}+4}\implies QP=\sqrt{\frac{1}{4}+4}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;QP=\sqrt{\frac{17}{4}}\implies QP=\cfrac{\sqrt{17}}{\sqrt{4}}\implies QP=\cfrac{\sqrt{17}}{2}

b)

since QR=QP, that means that QO is an angle bisector, and thus the segments it makes at the bottom of RO and OP, are also equal, thus RO=OP

thus, since the point P is 0.5 units away from the 0, point R is also 0.5 units away from 0 as well, however, is on the negative side, thus R (-0.5, 0)


c)

what's the equation of a line that passes through the points (-0.5, 0) and (0,2)?

\bf \begin{array}{lllll}&#10;&x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\&#10;%   (a,b)&#10;Q&({{ 0}}\quad ,&{{ 2}})\quad &#10;%   (c,d)&#10;R&({{ -0.5}}\quad ,&{{ 0}})&#10;\end{array}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;% slope  = m&#10;slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies &#10;\cfrac{{{ y_2}}-{{ y_1}}}{{{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}}}\implies \cfrac{0-2}{-0.5-0}\implies \cfrac{-2}{-0.5}

\bf m=\cfrac{\frac{-2}{1}}{-\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{-2}{1}\cdot \cfrac{2}{-1}\implies 4&#10;\\\\\\&#10;% point-slope intercept&#10;y-{{ y_1}}={{ m}}(x-{{ x_1}})\implies y-2=4(x-0)\implies y=4x+2\\&#10;\left. \qquad   \right. \uparrow\\&#10;\textit{point-slope form}
