I’m not sure if this is actually a strategy but can I get brainliest please. If I’m not allowed to use a calculator then I would covert the decimals to fractions. I would covert them to the simplest fractions before multiplying so that the answer is as closest to its simplest form as possible.
<h3>
1. Compare Functions B and L by determining which one has the greater rate of change.</h3>
The rate of change is expressed as the ratio between a change in one variable relative to a corresponding change in another. On the other hand, a linear function is given as the form:

And
is the rate of change we are looking for. For Function B we have a Table and the slope can be found by choosing two points, therefore:

As you can see
has a rate of change of 6 while the function of the table has a rate of change of 3.
<em> In conclusion,</em>
<em>has the greater rate of change</em>
<h3>
2. which one has a greater y-intercept?</h3>
We need to get the equation that rules the points given on the table. Two-Point Form of the Equation of a Line is:

As you can see
has a y-intercept of
while the function of the table has a y-intercept of 
<em> In conclusion,</em>
<em>also has the greater y-intercept</em>
May be you can use the quadratic equation formular.
Answer:
box 1=4
20/5= 4 (if you divide the others by x and y they equal 4)
box 2=512
if every square mile has 4 squirrels. then you multiply 128×4=512
box 3=81 because you divide 324/4=81
