Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

a.  We want to see when the two snakes will be the same length.

b.   b1 + r1m= b2 + r2m  where b is the initial length and m is the number of months and r is the  growth rate

c.   for the anaconda  5.23 + 1.27 m  where m is the number of months,  and the total length is in meters

The anaconda starts at 5.23 meters and grows 1.27 meters each month for m months

d.  for the python 4.76 + 2.04m   where m is the number of months, l is the length of the python in meters

The python starts at 4.76 meters and grows 2.04 meters each month for m months

e.  5.23 + 1.27 m  = 4.76 + 2.04m   m is the number of months  Each side is the number of meters
