Answer:

x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

-(5x-2) = 27

Distribute the minus sign

-5x +2 = 27

Subtract 2 from each side

-5x +2-2 = 27-2

-5x = 25

Divide by -5

-5x/-5 = 25/-5

x = -5

if the bacteria population is doubling every hour, can you estimate the bacteria population at the time of 10 hours?
anygoal [31]

Answer:

Bacterial population at the time of 10 hours = 1040000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the function that defines the bacterial population after 'x' hours is,

p(x) = a(b)ˣ

Where a = Initial population

And 'x' = Duration or time

Since bacterial population is getting doubled every hour,

2a = a(b)¹

b = 2

Therefore, function will be,

p(x) = a(2)ˣ

From the graph attached,

Point (5, 32500) lies on the graph of the function.

32500 = a(2)⁵

a = \frac{32500}{32}=1015.625

Therefore, the function will be,

p(x) = 1015.625(2)ˣ

For x = 10 hours,

p(10) = 1015.625(2)¹⁰

        = 1040000 bacteria

Oy is collecting rocks. She has 3 jars and 4 buckets. There are 2 rocks in each jar and 3 rocks in each bucket. How many rocks d
Molodets [167]

j = # of jars

b = # of buckets

y = total # of rocks

2j + 3b = y (2 rocks per jar, 3 rocks per bucket)

Because Joy has 3 jars you can plug 3 in for "j", and because she has 4 buckets you can plug in 4 for "b"

2(3) + 3(4) = y

6 + 12 = y

18 = y

Can someone please help me with this???
Orlov [11]

The green square is 15 ft wide by 15 ft tall.

The area of one green square is 15 x 15 = 225 square feet.

There are 4 sides plus the base : 225 x 5 = 1125 square feet for the green part.

One triangle has a base 15 feet wide and a height of 9 feet.

The area for one triangle is 1/2 x 15 x 9 = 67.5 square feet.

There are 4 triangles: 67.5 x 4 = 270 square feet.

Total: 1125 + 270 = 1,395 square feet.
