Water lilies are often used to decorate ponds, as shown in the photo. but they are also famous for their unusual growth pattern!

in this assignment, you will explore the population growth of water lilies. using an interactive that shows data for a pond, you will collect data over a month. you will use these data to answer questions and write a regression equation that models the data.

predict: imagine a small pond with just 4 water lilies. guess how many lilies will be in the pond just a month later:

Compare the subtraction problems 6/8 - 5/8 = 1/8 and 6/9 - 7/9 = 1/9 why is the answer to the first problem positive and the answer to the second problem negative

On traditional maps, earth is represented in a flat plane, or by euclidean geometry. however, a globe is a more accurate model that comes from elliptical geometry.how does a globe represent the fact that there are no parallel lines in elliptical geometry? the equator is not parallel to any other latitudinal lines. the north and south poles are never connected by a geodesic. the geodesics connecting the north and south poles never intersect. the geodesics connecting the north and south poles intersect at both of the poles.

Which expression gives the exact value of x?
