The 3 in 350 is in the hundreds column and has a value of 300
The 3 in 403 is in the units column and has a value of 3
Answer:
0.17
Step-by-step explanation:
The function can be rewritten as ...
B(t) = 9300·((1/2)^6)^t = 9300·(1/2)^(6t)
In order to multiply the number of bacteria by 1/2, the value of the exponent 6t must be equal to 1:
6t = 1
t = 1/6 ≈ 0.166667 ≈ 0.17
The culture loses half its size every 0.17 seconds.
X + Y = 18
X=chickens, Y=Cows
2x + 4y = 60
Let's try 8 and 10.
16 + 40=56, no, 32+20=52, no. 8&10 do not work.
Let's try 9 and 9.
18+36=54, no. 9&9 do not work.
Let's try 11 & 7.
22+28=50, no. 14+44=58, no.
Let's try 12 & 6.
24+24=48, no. 12+48=60 YES!
There are 12 cows and 6 chickens.
