First, let's simplify each expression by combining like terms:
A: 9x-3x-4 = 6x-4
B: 12x-4 = 12x-4 (Already Combined terms)
C: 5x+x-4 = 6x-4
When looking at the list of equations, it is clear that only Expression A and C are equivalent. Brianna failed to combine like terms and plug in more points than 0.

Let us assume the initial number of bacteria in the culture = xAfter 1 hour,The number of bacteria = 185x/100 = 1.85xAfter 2 hours,The number of bacteria = (185 * 1.85x)/100 = 3.42xSo3.42x = 12500x = 12500/3.42 = 3654.97 = 3655From the above deduction, we can conclude that the initial number of bacteria in the culture is 3655.
