Answer: 0.796875n + 0.584375p

Step-by-step explanation:

Lance bought n notebooks that cost $0.75 each. This means that the total cost of n notebooks would be $0.75n

Lance also bought p pens that cost $0.55 each. This means that the total cost of p pens would be $0.55p

The total cos of n notebooks and p pens is

0.75n + 0.55p

A 6.25% sales tax will be applied to the total cost. This means the amount of tax paid would be

0.0625(0.75n + 0.55p)

= 0.046875n + 0.034375p

Therefore, the expression that represents the total amount Lance paid, including tax is

0.75n + 0.55p + 0.046875n + 0.034375p

= 0.796875n + 0.584375p

Researchers recorded that a group of bacteria grew from 100 to 7,000 in 14 hours. At this rate of growth, how many bacteria will
Alik [6]

The number of bacteria grown in 32 hours is 15771

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

It is given that,

Researchers recorded that a group of bacteria grew from 100 to 7,000 in 14 hours.

Therefore, the bacteria has grown from 100 to 7000 in 14 hours.

<u> To calculate number of bacteria grown in 14 hours :</u>

⇒ 7000 - 100 = 6900

6900 bacteria grows in 14 hours. We need to find out the growth of bacteria in 1 hour in order to calculate its growth in 32 hours.

<u>To calculate number of bacteria grown in 1 hour :</u>

⇒ Total bacteria growth in 14 hours / 14

⇒ 6900 / 14

⇒ 492.85

<u>To calculate number of bacteria grown in 32 hours :</u>

⇒ 492.85 × 32

⇒ 15771.2

⇒ 15771  (rounded to nearest whole number)

∴ The number of bacteria grown in 32 hours is 15771

Subtract 379 from both sides.

that gives us: -312 = -24x

divide both sides by -24 which equals: x = 13.
