Strep throat is caused by streptococcus bacteria. the amount of bacteria multiplies at a rate of 10^13 per 10^2 hrs. what is the average growth of bacteria per hour?

The equation is pretty straightforward. Basically, if 10^13 bacteria multiplies in 100 hours. We seek to know how many bacteria multiply per hour. So if 10^13 bacteria mulitply in 100 hours Then X bacteria multiply in an hour. Hence X bacteria * 100 hours = 10 ^13 bacteria * 1 hour. X = 10 ^13 * 1 / 100= 10^(13-2) 10^11. Basically, 10^11 bacterias multiply in an hour.

0=6x+2y+10 is equivalent to the simplified form: y= -3x - 5• parallel lines always have the same slope, different y intercept knowing this, we can say the slope, or m of the line parallel to y= -3x - 5 is -3.m= -3 hope this could !
