Answer:The new cost per person= $19 when there are 12 people
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1
Let Number of people be rep as N
And Cost per person = C
such that the relationship of number of people which varies inversely with the cost per person is given as
N∝ 1/C
Introducing constant of proportionality, k, we have that
N= K/C
such that when there were 4 people the cost per person was $57, K would be
N= K/C
4 = K /57
k= 57 X 4
k=228
Step 2
Therefore If the number of people changed to 12, cost per person would be
N= K/C
12= 228 / C
C= 228/12
C= 19
The new cost per person= $19 when there are 12 people

Answer:
The probability is 1/17.
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of ways in which 2 cards can be selected from a pack of 52 cards is 
The total number of combinations of 2 cards with hearts equals 
Thus the probability of the event that both the cards have hearts becomes
Answer:
1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find how long it takes for the bacteria to lose half its size. We can do this by taking one point of the bacteria and finding how long it takes to go to half its size. When t=0, 9300 * (1/64)^t = 9300 * 1 = 9300 as anything to the power of 0 is 1. Therefore, we can solve for t when the end result of the bacteria is 9300/2= 4650, making our equation
4650 = 9300 * (1/64)^t
divide both sides by 9300
1/2 = (1/64)^t
First, we can tell that 2^6 = 64*. Because of this, we can say that (1/2)^6 = 1^6/2^6 = 1/64, so (1/64)^(1/6) = 1/2. We know this because
(1/2)^6 = 64
take the 6th root of both sides
(1/2) = (64)^(1/6)
. This means that t=1/6, so the bacterial culture loses 1/2 of its size every 1/6 seconds
* if this is harder to figure out, e.g. 3 and 729, we can plug (log₃729) into a calculator
