Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the population

so we have ,

2x= 6h

?= 3 days or 3×24h

by cross multiplication we have

2x× 72h= 6h×?

?= 2x×72/6 = 24x

So, in three days the bacteria will b 24 times current population.

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line described. through (2, -5) perpendicular to y = 1/3x -1
Cloud [144]

Answer:

y = -3x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocal slopes, so the slope will be -3.

Plug in the slope and given point into y = mx + b

y = mx + b

-5 = -3(2) + b

-5 = -6 + b

1 = b

Then, plug in the slope and y intercept into y = mx + b again:

y = -3x + 1 will be the equation of the line
