Kock's kinky curve is created by starting with a straight line segment and replacing it with a four segments, each 1/3 as long as the original segment. so, at the second stage the curve has three bends, at the next stage, each segment is replaced by four segments, and so on. how many bends does this curve have at the third stage? the fourth stage? the nth stage?

City l has a temperature of −3 °f. city m has a temperature of −7 °f. use the number line shown to answer the questions: number line from negative 8 to positive 8 in increments of 1 is shown. part a: write an inequality to compare the temperatures of the two cities. (3 points) part b: explain what the inequality means in relation to the positions of these numbers on the number line. (4 points) part c: use the number line to explain which city is warmer. (3 points)
