A gardener measured the heights of two plants at the end of every week. The function y=3x+8.5 gives the hight of plant a in centimeters at the end of x weeks. The function y= 2.5x+14.5 gives the hight of plant b in centimeters at the end of x weeks

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

12 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

let the heights of the plants be y

and the number of weeks be x

Plant A

y=3x+8.5--------------1

Plant B

y=2.5x+14.5----------2

Required

The number of weeks taken for both plants to have the same height

,equate the two expressions above

3x+8.5=2.5x+14.5

3x-2.5x=14.5-8.5

0.5x= 6

divide both sides by 0.5

x= 6/0.5

x= 12 weeks

use the substitution method to solve the system of equations. choose the correct ordered pair

Answers

Answer:

x = 3

y = 21

(3,21) and if u want slope it will be 7 :D

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 10x - 9

y = x + 18

1. Substitute for the y

10x - 9 = x + 18

2. Add 9 onto both sides

10x - 9 + 9 = x + 18 + 9

10x = x + 27

3. Subtract x on both sides

10x -x = x - x+ 27

9x = 27

4. Divide by 9 on both sides

9x/9= 27/9

x = 3

__________________________________________________________

Now that you have x, substitute that into one of the equations

y = x + 18

y = 3 + 18

y = 21

or  

y = 10x - 9

y = 10(3) - 9

y = 30 - 9

y = 21

there both the same

__________________________________________________________

x = 3

y = 21

Hope this helped!

Answer:

x +18 = 10x -9 (since they both = y, set them equal to each other. )

-9x +18 = -9 (subtract 10x from both sides, then subtract 18 from both sides)

-9x = -27 (divide both sides by -9 to isolate x)

x= 3 (take this and plug it into one of the equations to solve for y)

y = x +18 (i choose this one)

y = 3+18 (add)

y = 21 (take this and x and make a point and that's your answer)

Answer:

it's answer is 89 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular (p) = 80 mm

base(b) = 39 mm

hypotenuse (h) = ?

By using Pythagoras theorem,

h = √( p² + b²)

= √ ( 80² + 39²)

= √7921

=√(89)²

= 89 mm

Answer:

89 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the pythagorean therom to solve for the hypotenuse which is (c).

Ex: a^2+b^3=c^2

Subsitute

80^2+39^2=c^2

6400+1521=c^2

6400+1521=c^2

Add

6400+1521=7921

Now you have the following equation...

7921=c^2

Sqaure both sides of the equation

sqrt7921=sqrtc^2

89=c

So C=89 mm there you go :)

For a school picnic, leslie ordered a box of fresh-baked gingerbread cookies and sugar cookies. She got 60 cookies in all. 15 of the cookies were gingerbread. What percentage of the cookies were gingerbread.

Answers

Answer:

Pretty sure 25%.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you would need to see how many times 60 goes into 100, because a percent is ALWAYS over 100. You should get an answer of 1.66666667. Then you if you multiply it to one of the numbers then you have to do it to the other number. So, you would do 15 times 1.66666667. You would get 25. So, that would be 25 over 100 or 25/100. And 25 over 100 is 25%.

Hey there!

FIRST: you have to SIMPLIFY BOTH SIDES of your given EQUATION (there’s approximately 3 ways but we will use 2)

• 3u = 64 – 5u

• 3u = –5u + 64

SECOND: ADD by 5u on BOTH SIDES

• 3u + 5u = –5u + 64 + 5u

• CANCEL: –5u + 5u because that gives you 0

• KEEP: 3u + 5u because it can help us solve for you u-value

“3u + 5u = 8u”

New equation: 8u = 64

THIRD: DIVIDE by 8 on BOTH SIDES

• 8u/8 = 64/8

• CANCEL out: 8u/8 because that gives you 1

• KEEP: 64/8 because that gives you your u-value

“64/8 = u”

“64/8 = 8”

• Therefore your ANSWER: u = 8 ☑️

Answer:

y=-3x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that slope intercept form is written exactly the way it's described: it gives you the slope of the line, then its y-intercept.

So first we can look at the graph, and see that for every 1 unit traveled to the right, the line travels 3 units down.  Therefore our slope is -3.

Now we look for the y-intercept - we see the line intersects the y-axis at -3.

So our equation is:

y = -3x - 3

Answers

Answer:

8.) 9.15 x 10^18

Step-by-step explanation:

to get scientific notation, you move the decimal place until all numbers except one are past the decimal. If you move it to the left, the exponent is postitive. If you move it to the right, it's negative. So, 9,150,000,000,000,000,000 expressed in scientific notation is 9.15 x 10^18 because you moved the decimal 18 spaces to the left.

The number 9,150,000,000,000,000,000 expressed in scientific notation will be 9.15 × 10¹⁸ or 9.15E18. Then the correct options are A and B.

Jan's house has four leaking taps. An average of 34 cL of water leaks from each tap every day. How many litres of water is lost from these four taps in August?

Answers

Answer: 42.16l

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we should note that August has 31 days. Since Jan's house has four leaking taps and an average of 34 cL of water leaks from each tap every day. The four taps will leak (34 × 4) = 136 cL everyday.

The amount of litres of water that is lost from these four taps in August would be:

= 136cL × 31

= 4216 cL

= 42.16L

We should note that 100cL = 1L
