Caleb started with 50 bacteria for his science experiment and they doubled in one day. Jenna also started with 50 bacteria for her experiment and after one day, her number of bacteria was equal to 50 to the second power. Choose the statement that is true for the number of bacteria after one day. A.

Caleb's experiment had 100 bacteria and Jenna's experiment had 250 bacteria.
B.

Caleb's experiment had 100 bacteria and Jenna's experiment had 2,500 bacteria.
C.

Caleb's experiment had 500 bacteria and Jenna's experiment had 500 bacteria.
D.

I'm pretty sure the answer is A or what ever letter that says caleb experiment had 100 and jenna had 250

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?
