2,862 bacteria

6,200/26 = x/12
For one hour, there are 238.461538. Multiply that by 12 and get 2861.53846. Round to the nearest whole number and your answer is 2,862 bacteria.

so
128 is 74% of what means
128=0.74 times what
divide both sides by 0.74
172.97297297297297297297297297297=what

State the property that justifies the statement: If 4x + 9 = 15 and X=2y + 1,
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

Substitution property of equality

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4x + 9 = 15 and x = 2y + 1

Then

4(2y + 1) + 9 = 15

Required

State the property

From the list of options, (d) answers the question.

This is so because:

Substitution property of equality states that

If a = b then b = a

In other words, both can replace one another.

So if x = 2y + 1, then 2y + 1 can be substituted for x in 4x + 9 = 15

So:

4x + 9 = 15  becomes

4(2y + 1) + 9 = 15

<em>Hence, it is substitution property of equality</em>

D)) The ratio of the monthly income and expenditure of Sunayana is 5 : 3. If she
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

Sunayana's income is ₹25000 and expenditures are ₹15000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let i denote the monthly income and e denote the expenditures.

We know that the ratio of the monthly income to expenditure is 5:3. So, we can write the following proportion:  

\frac{i}{e}=\frac{5}{3}

Let's multiply both sides by e. This yields:

i=\frac{5}{3}e

We know that when the income is <em>increased</em> by 5000 and the expenditures are <em>decreased </em>by 3000, the new ratio is 5:2. So, we can write the following proportion:

\frac{i+5000}{e-3000}=\frac{5}{2}

Let's multiply both sides by (e-3000):

i+5000=\frac{5}{2}(e-3000)

Since we know that i=\frac{5}{3}e, substitute:

\frac{5}{3}e+5000=\frac{5}{2}(e-3000)

So, let's solve for the expenditures. Distribute the right:

\frac{5}{3}e+5000=\frac{5}{2}e-7500

Subtract \frac{5}{2}e from both sides:

-\frac{5}{6}e+5000=-7500

Subtract 5000 from both sides:

-\frac{5}{6}e=-12500

Multiply both sides by -6/5. So, the expenditures are:

e=\text{Rs }15000

We can use the original ratio to find Sunayana's income:

i=\frac{5}{3}e

Substitute 15000 for e. Evaluate:

i=\frac{5}{3}(15000)=\text{Rs }25000

So, Sunayana's income is ₹25000 and expenditures are ₹15000.

And we're done!

Edit: Wrong currency, sorry about that!
