Answer:
The weight of the 8th plant is 39lb
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Average Weight of 7 plants = 23lb
Average Weight of 8 plants = 25lb
Required:
Weight of the 8th plant
To solve this, the total weight of the initial 7 plants need to be calculated;
Substitute 23 for Average and 7 for Number of plants
Multiply both sides by 7
Hence, the 7 plants weigh 161
Represent the weight of the 8th plant with E
When the 8th plant is added;
The sum of the weight becomes 161 + E
And the number of plants becomes 8
The average is calculated as thus
Multiply both sides by 8
Subtract 161 from both sides
Reorder
Hence, the weight of the 8th plant is 39lb

Answer:
Option C
Step-by-step explanation:
9.54 = p - 4.2
9.54 + 4.2 = p
13.74 = p
Answer:
32
Step-by-step explanation:
lets substitute the appropriate values in the equation:
5h+3 - j h= 6 j=1 , so we have:
5*6 +3 -1
30 +3 -1

Answer:
y = (x + 4.5)² - 13.25
Step-by-step explanation:
y = x² + 9x + 7
We need to get a perfectly squared binomial as part of the right side.
Take the '9x' term, divide it in half, square it, add <u>and also subtract it </u>on the right side, as shown below. That would be (4.5)² = 20.25 added <u>and </u>subtracted.
y = x² + 9x + 7
y = x² + 9x + 20.25 + 7 - 20.25
y = (x² + 9x + 20.25) - 13.25
y = (x + 4.5)² - 13.25
y = (x + 4.5)² - 13.25
Vertex Form is y = a(x-h)² + k, where the parabola vertex is (h, k)
So if you wrote this as y = 1(x - [-4.5] )² + (-13.25), we would see that a = 1, and h = -4.5 and k = -13.25.
Vertex = (-4.5, -13.25)
I verified on a graphing calculator that this is indeed the vertex of the parabola.
