Answer:
4 brothers and 3 sisters
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of brothers and y be the number of sisters in the family.
1. Each brother has x-1 brothers and y sisters. If each brother has as many sisters as brothers, then
2. Each sister has y-1 sisters and x brothers. If each sister has twice as many brothers as she has sisters, then
3. Solve the system of two equations:
Then
Original Price = $42
Discount = 25% ---------> 25% is discount because it says 25% <span><u />off!!!</span>
Now,
Sale price = original price - discount % of original price
= 42 - 25% of 42
= 42 - (25/100) * 42
= 42 - 0.25 * 42
= 42 - 10.5
= 31.5
So, the sale price is $31.5
Options :
A. The initial number of bacteria is 7.
B. The initial of bacteria decreases at a rate of 93% each day.
C. The number of bacteria increases at a rate of 7% each day.
D. The number of bacteria at the end of one day is 360.
Answer:
C. The number of bacteria increases at a rate of 7% each day.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the function :
f(x)=360(1.07)^x ; Number of bacteria in sample at the end of x days :
The function above represents an exponential growth function :
With the general form ; Ab^x
Where A = initial amount ;
b = growth rate
x = time
For the function :
A = initial amount of bacteria = 360
b = growth rate = (1 + r) = 1.07
If ; (1 + r) = 1.07 ; we can solve for r to obtain the daily growth rate ;
1 + r = 1.07
r = 1.07 - 1
r = 0.07
r as a percentage ;
0.07 * 100% = 7%
The way you typed it, it seems like you need to know the total number of beads, which would be 300
Given two points (X1,Y1) and (X2,Y2) on a line, the slope =(Y2 - Y1) /(X2 - X1).
You are given the points (1,3) and (3,-2). Implying X1 =1 , Y1 =3, X2=3, Y2=-2
Use the formula for the slope above to answer the question. If you still have problems getting the correct answer, ask for more help.
Your answer should be a negative fraction or decimal if you are using a calculator.
