Answer:

10.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

250% = 250/100 = 2.5

The plant grew 2.5 times its height in 5 weeks.

Be careful with the way you interpret "The plant grew by 250% of its height after 5 weeks." It means that in 5 weeks, the plant grew an amount equal to 2.5 times the original length of the plant. It does not mean that the total height at the end of 5 weeks was 2.5 times the original height.

growth is 5 weeks: 250% of 3 inches = 2.5 × 3 inches = 7.5 inches

height after 5 weeks: 3 inches + 7.5 inches = 10.5 inches

Which statement represents the transitive property of equality?
AysviL [449]

Answer:

This property states that if quantity a equals quantity b, then b equals a. Another property that can be explained by this is the transitive property of equality. It tells us that if a quantity a equals quantity b, and b equals the quantity, c, then a and c are equal as well.

CORRECT answer will get BRAINLIEST!
shutvik [7]

Answer:

678.24 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

The figures are similar, hence

ratio of radii = 2 : 6 = 1 : 3 ← linear ratio

ratio of volume = 1³ : 3³ = 1 : 27

Hence

V_{B} = 27 × 25.12 = 678.24 ft³

5+ 3 cos ½x = 7<br>how to find the x?​
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

x=\pm 2 arcos(\frac{2}{3})+4k\pi

where k is an integer

Step-by-step explanation:

5+3\cos(\frac{1}{2}x)=7

We are going to isolate the trig expression first.

Subtract 5 on both sides:

3\cos(\frac{1}{2}x)=2

Divide both sides by 3:

\cos(\frac{1}{2}x)=\frac{2}{3}

Now since \cos(u) is even then \cos(u)=\cos(-u).

So we have:

\cos(\frac{1}{2}x)=\frac{2}{3}

implies:

\frac{1}{2}x=arccos(\frac{2}{3})+2k\pi

Multiply both sides by 2:

x=2arccos(\frac{2}{3})+4k\pi

or

-\frac{1}{2}x=arcos(\frac{2}{3})+2k\pi

Multiply both sides by -2:

x=-2arccos(\frac{2}{3})-4k\pi

So we can say the solution is:

x=\pm 2arcos(\frac{2}{3})+4k\pi

(k is an integer)

Can someone please help I need a clear explanation on how to solve this equation.

B = amount of students who chose Bulldog

n = amount of students who chose lion

t = amount of students who chose tiger

so.. "t" chose tiger, ok

"<span>Four times as many students chose Bulldog as chose Tiger"
namely, if "t" chose tiger, then 4 times that many chose Bulldog, thus

b = 4t

"</span><span>Twice as many students chose Lion as chose Tiger"
namely, if "t" students chose tiger, twice as many chose lion

n = 2t

now, we know a total of 273 students were surveyed, thus

</span>\bf \begin{cases}&#10;b+n+t=273\\&#10;\boxed{4t}+\boxed{2t}+t=273&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;7t=273\implies t=\cfrac{273}{7}\impliedby \textit{that many chose \underline{tiger}}<span>
