Answer: the dwarf tree grew by 3 inches.
the semi dwarf tree grew by 6 inches.
the full size tree grew by 18 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent how much the semi-dwarf lemon tree grew.
Last month, a dwarf lemon tree grew half as much as a semi-dwarf lemon tree. This means that the amount by which the dwarf lemon tree grew is expressed as x/2
A full-size lemon tree grew three times as much as the semi-dwarf lemon. This means that the amount by which the full-size lemon tree grew is expressed as 3x
Together, the three trees grew 27 inches. This means that
x/2 + x + 3x = 27
Cross multiplying by 2, it becomes
x + 2x + 6x = 54
9x = 54
x = 54/9
x = 6 inches
The dwarf tree grew by 6/2 = 3 inches.
The full-size lemon tree grew by 3 × 6 = 18 inches
precision for 40 feet is 1/2 foot
12 cm is 1/2 cm
for 9 1/2 in is 1/4 in
Answer: No
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance hiked of Mark is represented by 2*t + 100
and the distance hiked of Zoe is represented by 2*t
here, you can see that the slope of both equations is equal, this means that in the same lapse of time, Zoe and Mark displace the same amount, but because Mark started earlier, he has a y-intercept bigger than zero, so for every value of t, the distance that Mark hiked will be higher than the one of Zoe.
We can represent this by:
2*t + 100 > 2*t
100 > 0
So the distance hiked by Mark is always bigger than the one of Zoe
Answer:4

Answer:
+15
Step-by-step explanation:
An increase is generally regarded as being positive. If units are dollars, an increase of $15 can be represented by the integer +15.
__
<em>Additional comment</em>
If units are dimes, then the number would be +150. So, you see, <em>the units are important </em>to know.
It also depends on <em>what is increasing</em> and what is being represented by the integer. If it is an increase in debt, then the change in net worth might be -15.
