7 and -4
Coefficients are the numbers before a variable, meaning that 7 and -4 (be careful of that subtraction sign) are the coefficients. Additionally if you were asked what the leading coefficient was the answer would be 7 because it has the greatest exponent attached to it (2).
Based on the conditions given above, the number of bacteria at any time t (in hours) is calculated by the equation,
at = (a1)(2^t/2)
where a1 is the initial number of bacteria and at is the number at any time t. Substituting the givens,
a6 = (103)(2^6/2) = 824
Thus, there are 824 bacteria after 6 hours.
5 x 5 is your answer
Have a great day
Answer:
y=1
Step-by-step explanation:
4(1+2y)=12y
4*1 + 4*2y=12y
4 + 8y=12y
4=12y - 8y
4=4y
4/4=y
1=y
