There will be 13,122 micro-organisms present at noon the next day

The number of hours between noon today and noon tomorrow is 24 hours.

The micro-organisms triple every 3 hours. The first thing you need to do therefore, is to find the <u>number of 3 hour intervals in 24 hours. </u>

= 24 hours / 3

= 8 three hour intervals

The micro-organisms started with 2 and will triple every 3 hour intervals.

There are 8 three hour intervals so the number of micro-organisms at noon the next day is:

<em>= Beginning number of micro-organisms x 3 ^ number of three hour intervals </em>

= 2 x 3⁸

= 13,122 microorganisms

In conclusion, there will be 13,122 micro-organisms.

What is the area of the poster board that she has left
steposvetlana [31]
Find the area of the parallelogram, find the area of the triangle, then subtract the triangle's area from the area of the parallelogram.

Area of Parallelogram:
A= base * height
A= 20 in * 10 in
A= 200 in^2

Area of Triangle:
A= 1/2 base * height
A= 1/2 (10 in)(9 in)
A= 1/2 (90)
A= 45 in ^2

Area of Poster Left:
subtract the difference
A= Parallelogram Area - Triangle Area
A= 200 in^2 - 45 in^2
A= 155 in^2

ANSWER: 155 in^2 is the area of the poster board she has left.

Hope this helps! :)

Solve for R in P=IRT SHOW work<br><br><br> Solve for d in 2a-5d=30
AlexFokin [52]
P = I * R * T. Divide both sides by I and T to get R = P/(IT)

for d, you subtract 2a from  both sides to get -5d = 30 - 2a
then divide both sides by -5 to get d = (30 - 2a)/-5 or
d = (2a - 30)/5
