Let x be the total number of marbles.

(x-4) is divisible by 6, 7 and 8., Calculate the LCM of 6, 7, and 8

(LCM = 8x3x7 = 168)

Then (x-4) = 168 and X = 172 (least possible number of marbles)

There is a flu outbreak at your school that starts with 10 people. The number of ill students increases by 20% each hour. Write
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

y = (10 * 0.2) ^ x

Y = (2)^x

Y =  2^x + 10

6.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Y is the number of people at the school who have been infected with the flu. The 10 is the initial number of infected students which is a constant so it does not change. The 0.2 is the rate of increase, or 20%. The x exponent is the number of hours so that is a changing number. Your answer is 2 to the power of the number of hours which is x. Add ten after that to get your number. to get 100 people ill, it would take about 6.5 hours.
