Answer:
Marco- 10 is the starting value of the population. 2 is the growth rate of "double each day" with d as an exponent.
Isabella- 1 is the starting population. 1+0.2=1.2 is the rate at which it grows each day.
Step-by-step explanation:
Marco's equation should be 
since the bacteria double each day. 10 is the starting value of the population. 2 is the growth rate of "double each day" with d as an exponent. This will double each day because:
Day 1 is 
Day 2 is 
Day 3 is 
Day 4 is 
You'll notice the value doubles each day.
Isabella has a different equation because her population increases by a percentage. We use the simple interest formula to calculate the bacteria's daily increase or interest.
1(1+0.2)d
1 is the starting population.
1+0.2=1.2 is the rate at which it grows each day.
No, the one that Nayo draw was not a quadrilateral since the measurements given does not give a right triangle. The values 16,20 and 25 does not agree with Pythagorean Theorem. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Feel free to ask more questions.
Answer:
the common ratio is 3
Step-by-step explanation:
to solve for the common ratio, I like to take the second term and divide it by the first term
15/5 = 3
then I will check the rest of the terms
15*3 = 45
45*3 = 135
It looks like the common ratio is correct!
