Christa buys 14 flowerpots. some are small and cost $2.40 each. the rest are large and cost $5.60 each. she spends a total of $49.60. which equation models this situation? let s represent the number of small flowerpots she buys. a. 5.6s + 2.4(s + 14) = 49.6 b. (2.4 + 9.6)(14 – s) = 49.6 c. 2.4s + 5.6(14 – s) = 49.6 d. 5.6s + 2.8(14) = 49.6

Consider the system: y = 3x + 5 y = ax + b what values for a and b make the system inconsistent? what values for a and b make the system consistent and dependent? explain

Acolony contains 1500 bacteria. the population increases at a rate of 115% each hour. if x represents the number of hours elapsed, which function represents the scenario? f(x) = 1500(1.15)" f(x) = 1500(115) f(x) = 1500(2.15) f(x) = 1500(215)

(05.03 mc) part a: explain why the x-coordinates of the points where the graphs of the equations y = 4x and y = 2x−2 intersect are the solutions of the equation 4x = 2x−2. (4 points) part b: make tables to find the solution to 4x = 2x−2. take the integer values of x between −3 and 3. (4 points) part c: how can you solve the equation 4x = 2x−2 graphically? (2 points)
