3. Calculate: You can use your data to estimate the duration of each phase of the cell cycle. For example, if 8% of the cells were in prophase and the cell cycle was 10 hours long, then prophase would last 8% of 10 hours, or 0.8 hours (48 minutes). Use percentages to estimate the duration of each phase of the cell cycle. Show your work.

Explanation:

As given

For example, if 8% of the total cells were in prophase of cell cycle.

Length of cell cycle= 10 hours long,  and  prophase= 8% of 10 hours, or as , 0.8 hours (48 minutes).

Using % to estimate the duration of each phase of the cell cycle, the duration would be;

Interphase: 0.845×10=8.45  8hr27min

Prophase:  0.077×10=0.77   46.2min

Metaphase: 0.01×10= 0.1     6min

Anaphase:  0.025×10=0.25   15min

there are 35 white marbles

step-by-step explanation:

y- yellow marbles

4y + 5 = 45

subtract 5 from both sides

4y = 40

divide for from both sides

y = 10

plug in 10 to get 40 yellow marbles then subtract by 5 to get 35 marbles

thus there are only 10 yellow marbles
