Leah is studying a bacteria sample that increases 4 times in mass every day.

at the end of day 1 of her study, the sample has a mass of 4 milligrams. what is the mass of the bacteria sample after 6 days of study?

4096 miligrams

it is also 4.096 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

day 1: 4 miligrams

day 2: 16 miligrams

day 3: 64 miligrams

day 4: 256 miligrams

day 5: 1024 miligrams

day 6: 4096 miligrams

ALL BELOW ARE CORRECT ANSWERS:

4096 miligrams

answer: the answer is one of

step-by-step explanation:   we are given to write a proper fraction where the whole is divided into an even number of equal parts less than ten, and an odd number of those parts exist.

an even number less than 10 may be one of 2, 4, 6 or 8. so, the whole may be one of these four evens.

now, an odd number of these parts must exist, so the numerator must be an odd number, one of 1, 3, 5 or 7. it cannot be 9 because then the fraction will become improper.

thus, our fraction may be one of the following

or

step-by-step explanation:

we need to solve for 'x' the following equation:  

we have that:
