Answer: 1) D
2) C
Step-by-step explanation:
1. The blue algae has an initial mass of 20 kg and doubles its mass every hour. Then after t hours, the mass of blue algae is
2. The green algae has an initial mass of 160 kg and grows at a constant rate of 0.20 kg per minute. Then after t hours (60t minutes), the mass of green algae is
Part I) At t=3:
The mass of green algae has 196-160=36 kg more mass at 3 hours.
Part II) At t=4:
The blue algae has 320-208=112 kg more mass at 4 hours.
Answer:
Rational
Step-by-step explanation:
Set this up as a ratio putting inches on top and feet on bottom. Then your first ratio would be 1/25 since 1 inch is the same as 25 feet. In between them goes an equals sign and the the other ratio has an x on top (because inches is what we are looking for) and the 1500 on the bottom. Cross multiply to solve for x:
1(1500) = x(25). Divide both sides by 25 to get 60
