Considering that the grows at a constant rate we can form an equation where x = how many years after it was planted
and y = its height
Now we just need to find how many feet it grows each year. To do that we just need to compare its height from a certain age to another:
6 years after it was planted : 7 feet,
so x=6 and y = 7
9 years after it was planted: 16 feet
so x= 9 y=16
With thay we can conclude that in 3 years , the tree grew 9 feet. To discover how much the tree grow each year we just nee to divide 9 feet by 3 years which is 3 feet every year.
To write the equatopn now we just need to find the y-intercept which we can discover by setting x to 0:
If in 6 years after the tree was planted it is 7 feet long , we can discover how long it was when it was planted by subtracting 6 years of growth (The slope ) which is 3
7 - 6(years)×3(feet the tree grow each year)
7 - 18 = -11
The tree was -11 feet long when it was planted
which is our y-intercept
( I know it doesnt make sense , but if you apply to a graph it will make more sense )
Now we can make the equation
y = 3x -11
A discrete variable is a variable which may take only certain discrete values; for example the number of people in a household is a discrete variable which may have the value 1, 2, 3, etc. but cannot have intermediate values such as 1.473 or 3.732.
Choice d) can be represented by a discrete probability distribution, the other choices cannot be so represented.
Answer:
width = 11 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of a rectangle is 2 times length + width.
He already decided that the perimeter is at most 60 feet and the length is 19 feet. Then replacing in the formula for perimeter you have:
60 = 2 ( 19 + width)
30 = 19 + width
11 = width
Therefore the maximum width is 11 feet
