Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The sunflower then began to grow at a rate of 2 inches per week. This means that the rate of growth of the sunflower is in arithmetic progression. We would apply the formula for determining the nth term of an arithmetic sequence which is expressed as
Tn = a + d(n - 1)
Where
a represents the first term of the sequence.
d represents the common difference.
n represents the number of terms in the sequence.
From the information given,
a = 25 inches
d = 2 inches
To determine the height after 7 weeks, T7
n = 7
T7 = 25 + 2(7 - 1)
T7 = 25 + 12
T7 = 37 inches
To determine the height after w weeks, Tw
n = w
Tw = 25 + 2(w - 1)
Tw = 25 + 2w - 2
Tw = 23 + 2w
Answer:
1.3
Step-by-step explanation:
5x+7x+6-26=29
12x-20=29
12x=29-20
12x=9
x=1.3
Answer:
- x + y ≤ 600
- 5x +7y ≥ 3500
- it is possible
Step-by-step explanation:
a) We can write two inequalities, one for the number of tickets, and one for the necessary revenue.
x + y ≤ 600 . . . . . . . limit imposed by available seating
5x +7y ≥ 3500 . . . . required revenue to meet expenses
__
b) For x = 330, the first inequality puts one limit on y:
330 +y ≤ 600
y ≤ 270
And the second inequality puts another limit on y:
5(330) +7y ≥ 3500
7y ≥ 1850 . . . . subtract 1650
y ≥ 264.3 . . . . divide by 7
The number of tickets that must be sold to meet expenses is 265, which is less than the number that can be sold, 270. It is possible to meet expenses.
