Answer:

y= 8000x + 2000

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the formula we can use the points given in the question:

the slope:

to get the slope we can take the 2 points, (0,2000) and (2,18000) where x values are time and y values are bacteria

now using slope-intercept form we can get \frac{18000-2000}{2-0} which gives a slope of 8000 meaning for each hour there are 8000 new bacteria

intercept:

since we start with 2000 bacteria we know this is the y intercept so when x is 0

formula:

y=8000x + 2000

A nurse sees 24 patients in 5 hours. At this rate, approximately how many patients will the nurse be able to see in a 8-hour per
Vikki [24]

Hi!

We will solve this using proportions, like this:

24 patients in 5 hours

x patients in 8 hours

_________________

x = (24*8)/5

x = 192/5

x = 38,4

The nurse will be able to see 38,4 patients in a 8-hour period, but because it's patients we are talking about, living things which can't be represented in decimal form, the nurse will be able to see approximately 38 patients in a 8-hour period.

Hope this helps!

Answer question below.
12345 [234]

The speed of the Elvira is 6.545 miles per hour. Then the speed of the Altheia will be 0.545 miles per hour.

<h3>What is speed?</h3>

The distance covered by the particle or the body in an hour is called speed. It is a scalar quantity. It is the ratio of distance to time.

We know that the speed formula

Speed = Distance/Time

Let the speed of the Elvira be x. Then the speed of the Altheia will be (x - 6).

Let the distance between the coffee shop and Elvira's house be d.

Then the distance between the coffee shop and Altheia's house will be (3.6 - d).

Then we have

x = d / 0.5 ...1

(x - 6) = (3.6 - d) / 0.6 ...2

In solving the equations 1 and 2, we have

x = 6.545 and d = 3.2725 miles

Then the speed of the Elvira is 6.545 miles per hour. Then the speed of the Altheia will be 0.545 miles per hour.

More about the speed link is given below.
