Step-by-step explanation:

The given diagram shows the height of the same cactus plant a year apart:

We are told that the cactus continues to grow at the same percentage rate. To calculate the growth rate per year (percentage increase), use the percentage increase formula:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\sf Percentage \; increase &= \dfrac{\sf Final\; value - Initial \;value}{\sf Initial \;value}\\\\&=\dfrac{ 2-1.6}{1.6}\\\\&=\dfrac{0.4}{1.6}\\\\&=0.25\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, the growth rate of the height of the cactus is 25% per year.

As the cactus grows at a constant rate, we can use the exponential growth formula to calculate its height in Year 6.

[tex]\boxed{\begin{minipage}{7.5 cm}\underline{Exponential Growth Formula}\\\\$y=a(1+r)^t$\\\\where:\\\phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $a$ is the initial value. \\ \phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $r$ is the growth factor (in decimal form).\\ \phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $t$ is the number of time periods.\\\end{minipage}}[/tex]

The initial value is the height in Year 1, so a = 1.6.

The growth factor is 25%, so r = 0.25.

As we wish to calculate its height in Year 6, the value of t is t = 5 (since there are 5 years between year 1 and year 6).

Substitute these values into the formula and solve for y (the height of the cactus):

[tex]\begin{aligned}y&=a(1+r)^t\\&=1.6(1+0.25)^5\\&=1.6(1.25)^5\\&=1.6(3.0517578125)\\&=4.8828125\\&=4.9\; \sf m\;(nearest\;tenth)\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, if the cactus continues to grow at the same rate, its height in Year 6 will be 4.9 meters (to the nearest tenth).

Check by multiplying the height each year by 1.25:

The given diagram shows the height of the same snowman an hour apart:

We are told that the snowman continues to melt at the same percentage rate. To calculate the decay rate per hour (percentage decrease), use the percentage decrease formula:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\sf Percentage \; decrease&= \dfrac{\sf Initial\; value - Final\;value}{\sf Initial \;value}\\\\&=\dfrac{1.8-1.53}{1.8}\\\\&=\dfrac{0.27}{1.8}\\\\&=0.15\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, the decay rate of the snowman's height is 15% per hour.

As the snowman melts at a constant rate, we can use the exponential decay formula to calculate its height after another 3 hours.

[tex]\boxed{\begin{minipage}{7.5 cm}\underline{Exponential Decay Formula}\\\\$y=a(1-r)^t$\\\\where:\\\phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $a$ is the initial value. \\ \phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $r$ is the decay factor (in decimal form).\\ \phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $t$ is the number of time periods.\\\end{minipage}}[/tex]

The initial value is the snowman's initial height, so a = 1.8.

The decay factor is 15%, so r = 0.15.

As we wish to calculate the snowman's height after another 3 hours, the value of t is t = 4 (i.e. the first hour plus a further 3 hours).

Substitute these values into the formula and solve for y (the height of the snowman):

[tex]\begin{aligned}y&=a(1-r)^t\\&=1.8(1-0.15)^4\\&=1.8(0.85)^4\\&=1.8(0.5220065)\\&=0.93961125\\&=0.9\; \sf m\;(nearest\;tenth)\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, if the snowman continues to melt at the same rate, its height after another 3 hours will be 0.9 meters (to the nearest tenth).

Check by multiplying the height each hour by 0.85:

The complete equation is x² + 1/2x -2 = 2 + 2

The given equation can be rewritten as:

x² + (1/2)x + () = 2 + ()

Since the equation involves two missing values, let's consider them one by one.

Solve for the first missing value indicated by (_):

To find the missing value indicated by (_), we equate the quadratic equation to 2:

x² + (1/2)x + (_) = 2

Comparing this with the standard form of a quadratic equation,

ax² + bx + c = 0, we have:

a = 1, b = 1/2, c = (_ - 2)

Using the quadratic formula, x = (-b ± √(b²- 4ac)) / (2a), we can substitute the values:

x = (-(1/2) ± √((1/2)² - 4(1)(_-2))) / (2(1))

x = (-1/2 ± √(1/4 + 8(1)(_-2))) / 2

x = (-1/2 ± √(1/4 + 8(_ - 2))) / 2

Therefore, the first missing value is represented by (_ - 2).

Solve for the second missing value indicated by (_):

To find the missing value indicated by (_), we equate the constant term to 2:

(_) = 2

This indicates that the second missing value is equal to 2.

Putting it all together, the solution to the equation x² + (1/2)x + _ = 2 + _ is:

x = (-1/2 ± √(1/4 + 8(_ - 2))) / 2

with (_ - 2) representing the first missing value, and the second missing value is 2.

Answer:

x = 8 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Because this is a right triangle, we can find x using the Pythagorean theorem, which is given by:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where

In the triangle, the 6 unit side and the x unit sides are the legs while the 10 unit side is the hypotenuse.

Thus, we can solve for x by plugging in 6 for a and 10 for c in the theorem and solving for a (aka x, simply a in the theorem):

a^2 + 6^2 = 10^2

a^2 + 36 = 100

a^2 = 64

a = 8

x = 8

Thus, x is 8 units.

Both the angles are supplementary angles hence the value of x is 8°.

To solve for the value of x in the given scenario, we can use the fact that the interior angles between two parallel lines are supplementary, meaning they add up to 180 degrees.

Given:

Angle 1: (8x + 1)

Angle 2: 115°

Since these two angles are supplementary, we can set up the equation:

(8x + 1) + 115 = 180

Now we can solve for x by simplifying and isolating the variable:

8x + 1 + 115 = 180

8x + 116 = 180

8x = 180 - 116

8x = 64

To isolate x, we divide both sides of the equation by 8:

8x/8 = 64/8

x = 8

Therefore, the value of x is 8.

The value of the expression [tex]n^2 - 11n + 10[/tex] is equivalent to (n - 1)(n - 10).

To find the value of the expression [tex]n^2 - 11n + 10[/tex], we can follow these steps:

Start with the given expression: [tex]n^2 - 11n + 10.[/tex]

Look for any like terms that can be combined. In this case, there are no like terms.

Since there are no like terms, we can simplify further by factoring the expression. We need to find two numbers that multiply to give 10 (the constant term) and add up to -11 (the coefficient of the middle term, which is -11n).

The numbers that satisfy these conditions are -1 and -10, because

(-1) × (-10) = 10 and (-1) + (-10) = -11.

Now we can rewrite the expression using these numbers:

[tex]n^2 - 11n + 10 = (n - 1)(n - 10).[/tex]

So the factored form of the expression is (n - 1)(n - 10).

Therefore, the value of the expression [tex]n^2 - 11n + 10[/tex] is equivalent to (n - 1)(n - 10).

Any three lengths that satisfy the triangle inequality theorem can form the sides of a triangle. The theorem states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third side.

In order for three lengths to form a triangle, they must satisfy the triangle inequality theorem, which states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third side.

Let's consider three lengths: a, b, and c.

To determine if they can form a triangle, we need to check the following conditions:

a + b > c

a + c > b

b + c > a

If all three conditions are true, then the lengths a, b, and c can form a triangle.

For example, let's consider the lengths 3, 4, and 5.

3 + 4 > 5 (True)

3 + 5 > 4 (True)

4 + 5 > 3 (True)

The total amount of money shared by Lee and Olivia is £132 and  Lee and Olivia shared £84 and £48, respectively.

Lee has 7/11 of the total money, which means Lee has (7/11) × x amount of money.

When Lee gives Olivia £18, they have the same amount of money.

So Olivia's share becomes equal to Lee's share.

Therefore, we can set up the following equation:

(7/11) × x - £18 = (1/2)×x

To solve this equation, we can simplify it:

7x/11 - £18 = x/2

Multiplying both sides of the equation by 22 (the least common multiple of 11 and 2) to eliminate the denominators:

14x - 22 × £18 = 11x

14x - 396 = 11x

Subtracting 11x from both sides:

14x - 11x - 396 = 0

3x - 396 = 0

Adding 396 to both sides:

3x = 396
