The strawberry plant grows at a slower rate because it grows 0.8 inches per day while the bean plant grows 1 inch per day.
The strawberry plant grows at a slower rate because it grows 0.8 inches per day while the bean plant grows 1 inch per day.
The strawberry plant grows at a slower rate because it grows 0.8 inches per day while the bean plant grows 1 inch per day.
To compare the two proportional relationships, we need to calculate the growth rate for each plant.
For the bean plant:
The bean plant grows 2 inches in 2 days.
So, the growth rate of the bean plant is 2 inches / 2 days = 1 inch per day.
For the strawberry plant:
The strawberry plant grows 4 inches in 5 days.
So, the growth rate of the strawberry plant is 4 inches / 5 days = 0.8 inches per day.
Comparing the growth rates:
The bean plant grows at a rate of 1 inch per day.
The strawberry plant grows at a rate of 0.8 inches per day.
Therefore, we can conclude that the bean plant grows at a faster rate compared to the strawberry plant because it grows 1 inch per day while the strawberry plant grows 0.8 inches per day.
The baby slept fewer hours per day than the cat.
To compare the average number of children per household, we need to divide the total number of children by the number of households for each community.
For Community A:
In 10 households, there are 26 children.
So, the average number of children per household for Community A is 26 children / 10 households = 2.6 children/household.
For Community B:
In 12 households, there are 30 children.
So, the average number of children per household for Community B is 30 children / 12 households = 2.5 children/household.
Comparing the average number of children per household:
Community A has an average of 2.6 children/household.
Community B has an average of 2.5 children/household.
Therefore, we can conclude that Community A has the most children if both neighborhoods have the same number of households.
To find the number of children in Community A if there are 1,000 households, we can use the proportion:
Number of children / Number of households = Average number of children per household
Number of children / 1,000 = 2.6 children/household
Number of children = 2.6 * 1,000 = 2,600 children
Therefore, if there are 1,000 households in Community A, there would be 2,600 children in this community.

To compare the hourly rates, we need to divide the pay by the number of hours worked for each company.
For Company A:
The pay for 40 hours of work is $1,020.
So, the hourly rate for Company A is $1,020/40 hours = $25.50/hour.
For Company B:
The pay for 40 hours of work is $997.50.
So, the hourly rate for Company B is $997.50/40 hours = $24.94/hour.
Comparing the hourly rates:
Company A has an hourly rate of $25.50/hour.
Company B has an hourly rate of $24.94/hour.
Therefore, we can conclude that Company A has the higher hourly rate of $25.50/hour.
