Hello!!
25 - 20 = 5
5/20 = 0.25
0.25 * 100 = 25%
Good luck :)
We want to solve the equation :

first, multiply both sides by 4:


divide both sides by 3:

add -3 to both sides:

Answer: x=9
Well every time it gets rid of a shell it grows 1 1/3 times larger. So so to see how much it grows after the first time you say
1 cm * 1 1/3 = 1 1/3 cm
to get the next one you do the same
1 1/3 cm * 1 1/3 cm = 16/9
It will keep going multiplying by 1 1/3. So so we can say in an equation that the
(initial size) * 1 1/3 *(number of shells) = length
Or 1cm * 1 1/3 * n = L
We we know the final length is 10cm
So 1 1/3 * n = 10cm
n = 7.5shells
so approximately 7 or 8 shells
1,3 should be the coordinates. I believe from the graph that has been given in the question
