Lesson Plan

Illustrative Mathematics: F Le Bacteria Populations

Curated by ACT

This task provides a real-world context for interpreting and solving exponential equations. Students are asked to examine the equations representing the growth of three colonies of the bacterium that causes pneumonia, each colony being subject to different experimental conditions. They must explain why two of the colonies never share the same value and why two others are equal at one time. Aligns with F-LE.A.4.
