What is the doubling time of bacteria if you start with two bacteria and there are 128 bacteria after 3hrs?
A) 15min
B) 30min
C) 45min
D) 1hr

Please explain step by step and how you got the answer. Thank you

B) 30min

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with 2 and continue to multiply that by 2 until you get 128

2 x 2 = 4

4 x 2 = 8

8 x 2 = 16

16 x 2 = 32

32 x 2 = 64

64 x 2 = 128

Then start with what you think could be the right answer based on how many intervals there are.

You know it can't be 15 because there definitely isn't enough and you know its not 1hr because theres way more than 3.

So you're left with either B) 30min or C) 45min

It has to be B) 30min because there are 6 intervals and 30min goes into an hour twice, meaning that if every 2 intervals is an hour there are 3 hours.

-6 is the correct option from the above given options

the camry sales+accord sale=828,000. to make it so the two numbers are 18 thousand apart and still equal 828,000, you first need to find out what half of 828,000 is. 828,000/2=414,000. for the two numbers to equal 828,000, you have to add the same amount as you subtract from the middle. in this case, the number is 9,000 because it's half of 18,000. to equal 828,000, you have to add 9,000 to 414,000 for the camry and subtract 9,000 from 414,000 for the accord. 414,000+9,000=423,000.

414,000-9,000=405,000.

423,000+405,000=828,000.

423,000-405,000=18,

hope it
