Marcus is running a science experiment in which he measures the rate at which bacteria multiply. Every 15 seconds the bacteria double in number. If there are 5 bacteria now, how many will there be in 3 minutes? A. 2048 B. 2560 C. 20480 D. 1200

C. 20480

Step-by-step explanation:

so the equation is (60x3) divided by 15 because there are 3 minutes and 60 seconds in each minute and the bacteria doubles every 15 seconds so when you get your answer (12) that is how many times you will double 5.

so a parallelogram is just like a square base times height. multiply 40 and 39 to get 1560 inches.

a triangle is base times height divided by two. so multiply 7.9 and 5 and then divide it by 2 to get 19.75inches.

the kite can be split into two separate triangles and added together to get the total area. 30 x 4 /2 which equals 60. make sure to double it for the two triangles making 120.

false

step-by-step explanation:

the reason i say this is because for a certain length of sides you can pick any two and the length is wither equal or greater than the third side and in this case it's not.

3 + 5 = 8

8 is smaller than 9 which is the third side.

hope this : )
