The tripling time of population is 6 days and the population will be doubled in 3.5 days.

Given that the population of a bacteria is tripling in 6 days.

We have to find the tripling time of population and the time when the population will be doubled.

Suppose the population of bacteria in beginning be x.

The population of bacteria seems like arithmetic progression in which a =x, nth term =3x and n=6.

Aritmetic progression is a sequence which is having common difference.

nth term=a+(n-1)d

3x=x+(6-1)*d

3x-x=5d

2x=5d

d=2x/5

d=0.4x

So now we have to find the value of n where population will be 2x.

nth term=a+(n-1)d

put nth term=2x,  a=x,d=0.4x

2x=x+(n-1)*0.4x

2x-x=(n-1)*0.4x

x/0.4x=n-1

2.5=n-1

n=2.5+1

n=3.5

Hence the population of bacteria willbe doubled after 3.5 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

20% can be rewritten as 0.2 times 250000: 0.2*250000 = 50,000

Answer:

2625 different numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

This type of problem is classified as a "Combinatorics" problem:  Counting up the number of ways something can happen.

Many times when attempting to count a large number of items, patterns are recognized and shortcuts to count are developed so that one doesn't need to physically count all of the items.  Perhaps the trickiest part of counting with these shortcuts is to ensure that one does not over-count (counting a scenario more than once), although it is equally important that we don't under-count (fail to count a situation that applies).

It should be noted that for a number to be a 4 digit number, it must have 4 digits, and thus the first digit must not be zero (despite that that would be an even digit, the number itself would not be a 4 digit number).

There are 2 main scenarios:

1.  All 4 digits are even

2. Exactly 3 digits are even (meaning that exactly one digit is odd).

There are two sub-cases to Scenario 2:

2.1. The first digit is odd, and all three of the other digits are even.

2.2. The first digit is even, and exactly two of the other digits are even (meaning that exactly one of the last three digits is odd).

None of scenarios 1, 2.1, and 2.2 overlap, so we're not over-counting:  

Further, this is all of the possibilities for a 4 digit number with least three even digits, so we're not under-counting.

Scenario 1 -- All 4 digits are even.

If all 4 digits are even, then the first digit has fours choices (2,4,6,8), and the next 3 digits each have 5 choices (2,4,6,8,0).

[tex]4*5*5*5=500\text{ choices}[/tex]

Scenario 2.1 -- The first digit is odd, and all three of the other digits are even

If the first digit is odd, there are 5 choices for the first digit (1,3,5,7,9), and the next 3 digits each have 5 choices (2,4,6,8,0).

[tex]5*5*5*5=625\text{ choices}[/tex]

Scenario 2.2 -- The first digit is even, and exactly two of the other digits are even

If the first digit is even, there are 4 choices for the first digit (2,4,6,8), and if exactly two of the next 3 digits are even, then there are 5 choices for each of the two even digits (2,4,6,8,0), and 5 choices for the odd digit (1,3,5,7,9), and there are "3 permuted by 2" ways of ordering those three digits.

[tex]4* \left [(5*5*5) * {}_3 \! P_2 \right ]=\\\\=4*\left [5*5*5 * \dfrac{3!}{2!} \right ]\\\\=4*\left [ 5*5*5 * \dfrac{3*2*1}{2*1} \right ] \\\\=4*\left [5*5*5 * 3 \right ] \\\\=1500\text{ choices}[/tex]

Scenario 2.2 broken down (calculated without using the permutation operation) -- The first digit is even, and exactly two of the other digits are even

Then either the second digit is odd (scenario 2.2.1), the third digit is odd (scenario 2.2.2), or the fourth digit is odd (scenario 2.2.3).

Scenario 2.2.1.  The second digit is odd.

The first digit is even: 4 choices for the first digit (2,4,6,8)

The second digit is odd:  5 choices for the odd digit (1,3,5,7,9)

The third and fourth digits are even: 5 choices for each even digit (2,4,6,8,0).

[tex]4*5*5*5=500\text{ choices}[/tex]

Scenario 2.2.2.  The third digit is odd.

The first digit is even: 4 choices for the first digit (2,4,6,8)

The second and fourth digits are even:  5 choices for each even digit (2,4,6,8,0).

The third digit is odd:  5 choices for the odd digit (1,3,5,7,9)

[tex]4*5*5*5=500\text{ choices}[/tex]

Scenario 2.2.3.  The last digit is odd.

The first digit is even: 4 choices for the first digit (2,4,6,8)

The second and third digits are even:  5 choices for each even digit (2,4,6,8,0).

The last digit is odd:  5 choices for the odd digit (1,3,5,7,9)

[tex]4*5*5*5=500\text{ choices}[/tex]

Scenarios 2.2.1, 2.2.2, and 2.2.3 comprise all of Scenario 2.2, so [tex]500+500+500=1500\text{ choices}[/tex]

How many ways can a 4 digit number be formed where at least 4 of the digits are even?

This is the sum of the choices from Scenario 1, Scenario 2.1, and Scenario 2.2, so    [tex]500+625+1500=2625\text{ choices}[/tex].

The angle bisector theorems is proved below.

It should be noted that the angle bisector theorem simply states that an angle bisector of a triangle divides the opposite side into two segments which are proportional to the other sides of the triangle.

The way to proof the theorem is illustrated:

Draw a ray CX parallel to AD and then extend BA to intersect this ray at E.

In triangle CBE, DA is parallel to CE.

BD/DC == BA/AE ......... i

Now we want to prove that AE = AC

Since DA is parallel to CE, we have:

DAB = CEA (corresponding angles) ....... ii

DAC = ACE (alternate interior angles) ...... iii

Since AD is the bisector of BAC, we've DAB = DAC.

From the above, ACE makes and isosceles triangle and since the opposite sides are equal, we've AC = CE.

Substitute AC for AE in equation i

BD/DC = BA/AC

Therefore, the angle bisector theorems is proved.

Answer:

13%

15%

41%

31%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percentage one amount is out of another amount, divide the smaller amount by the bigger amount. You will end up with a decimal (0.xy where x is the 10% place and y is the 1% place).

For example: to find the percentage that 39 is out of 300 students, we divide 39 by 300. This gives us the decimal 0.13. Written as a percentage, that is 13%.

We can do this for all of them.

Here is the math for each one:

39 ÷ 300 = 0.13 → 13%

45 ÷ 300 = 0.15 → 15%

123 ÷ 300 = 0.41 → 41%

93 ÷ 300 = 0.31 → 31%

Once you have all these decimals, you might choose to check your work by adding them up. They should at up to 1.00, or 100%. In this case, they do, so we know these answers are correct.

Answer:

x = 25°

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

25° and x° are vertical angles, therefore they are equal to each other.

Vertical angles are angles formed by two intersecting lines that are non-adjacent.

The angle to the right of 80° would be 55°, because the sum of angles on a line is 180°.

Angle x would be 25° because the other straight line contains angles 80°, 50° and x°.

The total weight of the bag that the salesman is carrying for selling a machine including some personal stuff is 13.9 Kg.

A fraction is a rational number that consists of a numerator and a denominator, used to represent a part of the whole thing.

It is given that,

A salesman is carrying a big bag for selling a machine.

Consider the weight of the machine = w

So,

The weight of his machine is three kilograms and half a machine. I.e.,

w = 3kg +w/2

⇒ w/2 = 3kg

∴ w = 6kg

Thus, the weight of the machine is 6 Kg.

So, the weight of the repair tool for the machine = a half kilogram and one-fourth of the machine

⇒ 1/2Kg + 1/4w

⇒ 1/2 + 6/4

⇒ 2 Kg

The personal stuff weighs - four kilograms minus a fourth of the weight of the machine.

⇒ 4Kg - w/4

⇒ 4 - 6/4

⇒ 2.5 Kg

He has some supplies that weigh two-fifth of the machine and personal stuff combined.

⇒ 2/5(w + 2.5)

⇒ 2/5 × 8.5

⇒ 3.4 Kg

Thus, the total weight of the bag = 6 Kg + 2 Kg + 2.5 Kg + 3.4Kg =  13.9Kg.

Therefore, the total weight of the salesman's bag is 13.9 Kg.

The volume of the container is 5969 cm³. The correct option is D. 5,969 cm³

From the question, we are to determine the volume of the container

Volume of the container = Volume of the cone - Volume of the small cone

The volume of a cone is given by the formula,

V = 1/3πr²h

Where V is the volume

r is the radius

and h is the height

From the given information,

For the small cone,

Diameter = 10 cm

∴ Radius, r = 10cm/ 2 = 5 cm

h = 6 cm

For the big cone

diameter = diameter of the container = 30 cm

∴ Radius = 30cm/ 2

Radius = 15cm

h = height of small cone + height of container

h = 6 cm + 20 cm

h = 26 cm

Putting the parameters into

Volume of the container = Volume of the cone - Volume of the small cone

We get,

Volume of the container = 1/3π × 15² ×26 - 1/3π × 5² × 6

Volume of the container = 1/3π (15² ×26 -  5² × 6)

Volume of the container = 1/3π (5850 -  150)

Volume of the container = 1/3π (5700)

Volume of the container = 1/3 × π × 5700

Volume of the container = 5969.026 cm³

Volume of the container ≈ 5969 cm³
