Help? (18x - 9 > 9) and (2x - 4 > -10)

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

x>1 the bottom graph

Step-by-step explanation:

(18x - 9 > 9) and (2x - 4 > -10)

Do the first inequality first

18x - 9 >9

Add 9 to each side

18x - 9+9 > 9+9

18x> 18

Divide each side by 18

18x/18 > 18/18

x >1

Then the second inequality

(2x - 4 > -10)

Add 4 to each side

2x-4+4>-10+4

2x>-6

Divide each side by 2

2x/2 >-6/2

x>-3

Since this is an and

x>1 and x>-3

We take the more restrictive

Bacillus cereus is a soil-dwelling bacterium that sometimes causes food poisoning. Each cell divides to form two new cells every

Readme [11.4K]

Answer: There are 6400 bacteria that will be present after 3 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Initial number of bacterial cells = 100

Each cell divides to form two new cells every 30 minutes.

Number of hours = 3 hrs

Number of minutes in 3 hours = 3\times 60 = 180 minutes

Number of 30 minutes in 3 hours = $\dfrac{180}{30}=6$

So, our equation becomes,

$P(x)=ab^x\\\\P(3)=100(2)^6\\\\P(3)=6400$

Hence, there are 6400 bacteria that will be present after 3 hours.
