A continuación se explica cómo resolver el problema: **1. Encuentra el área del jardín:** * Área del jardín = largo * ancho * Área de jardín = 12 metros * 16 metros = 192 metros cuadrados **2. Encuentra el área total del jardín y el pasillo:** * El jardín y el pasillo combinados tienen una superficie de 320 metros cuadrados. **3. Encuentra el área del pasillo:** * Área del pasillo = Área total - Área del jardín * Área del pasillo = 320 metros cuadrados - 192 metros cuadrados = 128 metros cuadrados **4. Modela el pasillo:** * Imagine el pasillo como un marco alrededor del jardín. Llamemos al ancho del pasillo "x". * El largo del jardín más el doble del ancho del pasillo sería 12 + 2x. * El ancho del jardín más el doble del ancho del pasillo sería 16 + 2x. **5. Establecer una ecuación** * El área del pasillo es igual al área total menos el área del jardín: (12 + 2x)(16 + 2x) - 192 = 128 **6. Resuelve la ecuación:** * Ampliar la ecuación: 192 + 56x + 4x^2 - 192 = 128 * Simplificar: 4x^2 + 56x - 128 = 0 *Dividir ambos lados entre 4: x^2 + 14x - 32 = 0 * Factorizar: (x + 16)(x - 2) = 0 *Resolver para x: x = -16 o x = 2 **7. Elija la solución positiva:** *El ancho del pasillo no puede ser negativo, por lo que el ancho del pasillo es de 2 metros. **Respuesta:** El pasillo tiene un ancho de 2 metros.

there are 500,000 bacteria at the end of a pin point. 1000 bacteria can make a person sick. then bacteria at the tip of a pin point can make 500 people sick. Also, many people do not know that bacteria can (reproduce). Let's say there are 5 bacteria and we leave it for 15 minutes. bacteria will multiply to 10. if left for up to 30 minutes, 20 bacteria will form. if left up to 45 minutes. bacteria will multiply up to 40. every 15 minutes the bacteria will double 2. if you start with five bacteria that reproduce every 15 minutes, how manu bacteria would you have after 12 hours ?
