Answer: b. Lin buys a pack of 87 pencils. She gives 39 to her teacher and shared the remaining pencils between herself and 3 friends.
Step-by-step explanation:
Lin buys 87 pencils which is why the entire number line adds up to 87.
She gave 39 of these pencils to her teacher which s why there is a section of the number line that is unlike the rest and is 39 in number.
The rest of the number line is a set of 4 spaces which are equal.
Lin shared the remaining pencils between herself and 3 friends which means she shared the pencils with 4 people. These four equal quantities of pencils are the 4 spaces.
Answer:
They are only equal on day 0, both having 10 population.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the bacteria on the counter is initially measured at 5 and doubles every 3 days we can generate the following geometric equation:
Given the bacteria on the stove is measured at 10 and doubles every 4 days we can create another equation:
To find how many days it will take for the bacteria population to equal the same lets set both equations equal to eachother:
Divide both sides by 10
Since both exponents have the same base we can set the exponents equal to eachother and solve for x:
Multiply both sides by 3 to isolate x on the left side
Multiply both sides by 4 to remove fraction
Subtract 3x to isolate x on the left side
Plug x into one of our original equations
