To check: 3/3-3 - 5/3 = 3/0 - 5/3 which is not defined.
Therefore, b = 3 is an extraneous solution.
5(x+6) is the answer you are looking for. x represents a number
Using proportions, it is found that the differential equation which describes the growth of the pigeon population is given by:

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.
In this problem, considering the initial population and the population one week later, the rate of growth is given by:
k = 9/6 = 1.5.
The standard differential equation for population growth is:

Hence:

Answer:
1. 6.4 meters of streamers left to make pompoms
2. He will be able to make 8 pompoms
Step-by-step explanation:
1.
4 x 1.6 = 5.6 meters were used to make decorations.
Then we do 12 - 5.6 = 6.4
2.
per one pompom it takes 0.8 meters of streamers.
6.4 is the left over so we do
6.4 divided by 0.8 = 8 pompoms you can make
