Let us assume the initial number of bacteria in the culture = xAfter 1 hour,The number of bacteria = 185x/100 = 1.85xAfter 2 hours,The number of bacteria = (185 * 1.85x)/100 = 3.42xSo3.42x = 12500x = 12500/3.42 = 3654.97 = 3655From the above deduction, we can conclude that the initial number of bacteria in the culture is 3655.
The answer is 17/25. Hope this helps! :) I know how you feel!
X would equal -6.5. I hope this helps.
one hundred thirty two million, eight hundred eighty thousand and sixteen
(Your commas are in the incorrect spot)
fifteen thousand, eight hundred and two
Now plug the x value into 9x + 2
Hope that helps!
