Answer:
Tim's bean sprout grow by more than 
.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that Tim's bean sprout grew 3 3/8 inches. Teegan's bean sprout grew 2 3/4 inches.
We have to find how many more inches did Tim's bean sprout grow than Teegan's.
Firstly, converting both the mixed fractions in improper fraction get;
Tim's bean sprout grew = 
= 
Teegan's bean sprout grew = 
= 
Since the denominator of both the fractions is not the same, so we can't compare them both as which is larger or smaller.
Tim's bean sprout grew = 
Teegan's bean sprout grew = 
Now, we can clearly see that Tim's bean sprout grew more than Teegan's bean sprout.
So, Tim's bean sprout grow by more than = 
=
Hence, Tim's bean sprout grow by more than .
A. 1/2
This is because there are 6 possible outcomes. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6.
The probability of rolling 1, 5, and 6 is 3 out of 6 (3/6)
3/6 reduced is 1/2.
Given the set of equations:
2x + y = 10
y = 3x
Let's solve for x and y.
Here, let's use substitution method.
Substitute 3x for y in equation 1:
2x + y = 10
2x + 3x = 10
5x = 10
Divide both sides by 5:
In equation 2, substitute 2 for x to find y.
y = 3x
y = 3(2)
y = 6
Therefore, we have:
x = 2 and y = 6
ANSWER:
x = 2, y = 6
Geometric sequence general form: a * r^n
For Greg, we are given the elimination of the medicine as a geometric nth term equation:
200 * (0.88)^t
The amount of medicine starts at 200 mg and every hour, decreases by 12%;
To compare the decrease in medicine in the body between the two, it is useful to get them in a common form;
So, using the data provided for Henry, we will also attempt to find a geometric nth term equation that will work if we can:
As a geometric sequence, the first term would be a and the second term would be ar where r = multiplier;
If we divide the second term by the first term, we will therefore get r, which is 0.94 for Henry;
We can check that the data for Henry can be represented as a geometric sequence by using the multiplier (r) to see if we can generate the third value of the data;
We do this like so:
282 * (0.94)^2 = 249.18 (correct to 2 d.p)
We can tell that the data for Henry is also a geometric sequence.
So now, we just look at the multiplier for Henry and we find that every hour, the medicine decreases by 6%, half of the rate of decrease for Greg.
The answer is therefore that <span>Henry's body eliminated the antibiotic at half of the rate at which Greg's body eliminated the antibiotic.</span>
