How many solutions does equation 4x + 3 - 1 = 2(2x + 2) - 2x have explain your reasoning.

Anwser: X=1

4x+3-1=2(2x+2)-2x

4x+2=4x+4-2x

4x+2=2x+4

-2 -2x

2x=2

X=1

Step-by-step explanation:

linearly: 8560 bacteria

exponentially: approximately 75233 bacteria

step-by-step explanation:

assuming it is not exponential (we would have some really complicated logarithms), let's say it is linear. then, after 5 hours, it increased by 1200 bacteria, so every hour it increases by 240 bacteria. this means that after 19 hours, we get 19 * 240 + 4000 bacteria or 3800 + 760 + 4000 = 7800 + 760 = 8560 bacteria.

because it says round your answer, i will do this exponentially (with a calculator, of course). first, we need to find how much it multiplies by every hour, by taking the 5th root of 52/40 or 13/10. this is approximately 0.167. we still need to add 1 to this, because we are multiplying by that number, not adding that amount of the number. now, we just calculate 4000 * (1.167)^19. use a calculator to get approximately 75232.6, or 75233.

its c or d   take a lucky guess my dude
