Bacteria multiply at an alarming rate when bacteria splits into two new cells, thus doubling. If we start with only one bacteria which can double every hour, how many bacteria will we have by the end of one day?

Scenario: susan wants to make 2 square flags to sell at a crafts fair. the fabric she wants to buy is 3 meters wide. she doesn't want any fabric left over. what's the least amount of fabric she should buy? question: which equation will susan solve her problem? note: let x represent the length of 1 side of the flag. options: 1) 2x^2 = 4x 2) 8 +2x = 2(4x) 3) 2 * 2 = 4 * 2 4) 4x^2 -2x = 0
