Step-by-step explanation:
You’ll need a clean, microwave-safe container (a quart-sized bowl works great) to mix the agar with water and then boil it. These proportions make enough nutrient agar to prepare two Petri dishes. Stir these together well:
• ½-teaspoon agar (about 1.2 grams)
• ¼ cup (60 mL) of hot water
Bring this mixture to a boil for three minutes to completely dissolve the agar. CAUTION: Adult supervision is required to boil water. If you are using a microwave oven to boil the mixture, be careful not to let it boil over. The mixture should be clear with no particles floating in it after boiling.
Remove the mixture from the microwave and allow it to cool for 3 to 5 minutes before moving on to the next step.
Take the lid off of the Petri dish (the lid is larger than the dish) and carefully cover the bottom-half of the Petri dish with warm nutrient agar mixture.
Loosely cover the bottom portion (set the lid ajar so excess moisture can escape) and allow the mixture to cool and harden for at least an hour.
It’s time to collect some bacteria on the end of a cotton swab! The classic test is to roll a clean cotton swab in your mouth and then to lightly draw a squiggle with it on the gelled agar. However, many people like to test something even more gross like the keys on a computer, a cell phone case, the pump handle of a soap dispenser, or the TV remote control. Unless someone recently cleaned the buttons on the remote, you may be seeing some real goobers in a short time. Dampen a cotton swab and roll it in your fingers as you pull it across the surface of your choice.
Lift the lid off the Petri dish and LIGHTLY draw a squiggly line in the agar with the end of the cotton swab. Roll the swab in your fingers as you draw the line. Replace the lid and label the dish with the date and the name of the item you tested.
Use a sanitizing wipe to thoroughly clean one of the surfaces you tested in Step 6, e.g. Cellphone
With a clean swab, redo the squiggle test in the other half of the Petri dish from Step 6 to confirm your cleaning efforts.
Before growing anything, some people place each Petri dish into a separate zipper-lock bag. Place the upside down dishes into a warm – about 98°F (37°C) is fine – and totally dark place to grow. In a closed box on a cable box is a great place. In a short time, you’ll be greeted by an amazing variety of bacteria, molds, and fungi. You likely see more and larger colonies over the next few days. You shouldn’t see too much growth where the disinfectants (hand sanitizers) were used. You might even see a “halo” around each location. This halo is called the “kill zone.” Measure and compare the size of the kill zone to determine the effectiveness of different antibacterial agents.
Remember: Do NOT open the dishes once things begin to grow. You could be culturing some serious goobers and not even know it. The comfort is that they were around you all the time anyway and now you can see them. Just be careful!
Goobers like you’re growing will often stink and make their presence known after a short time. These are not toys or curiosities you’re growing. Proper disposal is essential for both safety and sanitation. Seal all the Petri dishes into larger zipper-lock plastic bags. You can add a generous shot of chlorine bleach to the bag before sealing it to add another level of destruction. Remember: do NOT open the zipper-lock bags… ever! When you’re finished analyzing the cultures, dispose of the entire sealed bag in the trash.
Golly, Mom is right! It IS important to wash your hands with soap and warm water whenever you can!

You place $700 in a bank to be compounded quarterly at 5%. How long will it take for the account to be worth $1500 if no additional
money is added?
A 1500 = 700 (1 + .05/4) ^4x
B 1500 = 700 (1 + .05/4) ^x
C 1500 = 700 (1 + 5/4) ^4x

USING THE LAW OF SINES
The third angle of the triangle will be ∠B = 69°.
What is an angle?The angle is defined as the span between two intersecting lines or surfaces at or close to the point where they meet.
Given that:-
Two angles are ∠A = 43° and ∠C=68°The third angle will be calculated as:-
∠A + ∠C + ∠B = 180
43 + 68 + ∠B = 180
∠B = 180 - 43 - 68
∠B = 69°
Therefore the third angle of the triangle will be ∠B = 69°.

Solve the system of equations -x + 4y = 6 and 4x – 8y = 0 by combining the equations.
(- x +4y =6)
(4x -8y =0)
-x + 4y = 6
4x - 8y = 0
Answer:
x=6 y=3
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate x for -x+ 4y = 6: x= -6+ 4y
Substitute x = -6 + 4y
4(-6+ 4y) - 8y = 0
Simplify
-24+ 8y =0
Isolate y for -24 + 8y = 0: y =3
For x = -6+ 4y
Substitute y =3
X= -6+ 4 × 3
Simplify
X=6
The solutions to the system of equations are:
x=6 y=3
Two angles are complementary. One angle is 30 more than the other angle. Find the value
of both angles.
Answer:
α=30, β=60
Step-by-step explanation:
we have angles α and β where α + β =90 & β=α+30
this gives us a system of equations that can be solved through substitution
[tex]\alpha +\beta =90\\\beta =\alpha +30[/tex]
substitute to solve for α: α+(α+30)=90
2α+30=90
2α=60
α=30
substitute α to find β:
β=α+30
β=(30)+30 = 60

Answer:
Here I see your answer
Step-by-step explanation:
Help pls (picture included)
Answer:
16x^2 - 9 = 0
(4x)^2 - 3^2 = 0
a^2 - b^2 = (a - b) (a + b)
Hence, (4x - 3) (4x + 3) = 0
Either (4x - 3) = 0 or (4x + 3) = 0
4x = 3 or 4x = -3
x = 3/4 or x = -3/4

Answer:
2/9
Step-by-step explanation:
First, square the fraction 5/6 to get 1/2 * 25/36 - 1/8. Next, multiply 1/2 and 25/36 to get 25/72. Finally, subtract 1/8 to get the answer 2/9.
Answer:
2/9
Step-by-step explanation:
=> 1/2 (5/6)^2 - 1/8
=> 1/2 (25/36) - 1/8
=> 25/72 - 1/8
=> make 1/8 to have a denominator of 72.
=> multiply the numerator and denominator by 9/9
=> 1/8 becomes 9/72
soo
=> 25/72 - 9/72
=> 16/72
^the greatest common factor is 8
=> 2/9
2/9 is your answer :)

How do I solve this problem
Answer:
#9 24 T-Shirts for $168
#10 the diffirence between 30 T-Shirts and 9 T-Shirts is 147
Step-by-step explanation:
so to get the cost (c) for 1 T-Shirt you need to divide 147 by 21
147 ÷ 21 = 7
so c=7
10x7=70
70x3=210
30x7=210
so 30 shirts cost $210
and 9x7=63
so now it is time to do the rest of the math.
210

Find the surface area and volume.
Answer:
surface area=2816 m² & volume =205.33m³
Step-by-step explanation:
here
diameter of base (d) -28 m
radius(r) = d/2=14 m
vertical height of cone (h)-48 m
slant height of cone (l)-50 m
surface area (TSA)-?
volume (v)-?
we know
TSA=(pie*r*l)+pie*r*r
=pie*r(l+r)
=22/7* 14(50+14)
=22*2(64)
=22*128
=2816 m²
again
v=1/3 pie*r*r
=1/3*22/7*14*14
=1/3*22*2*14
=205.33 m³
