The following statements are true:
The tree grows approximately 7 feet between years 5 and 7;
the tree stops growing at around 30 feet
In graphing the function, we see that the initial value, when x = 0, is 1 ft, not 2.
Additionally, we can see the values as the height increases; when the tree hits 15 feet, it continues to grow at around 1.5 feet every 0.4 years until it hits around 25 feet tall. Then it begins to slow down.
The answer is 1 mile an hour
There are 2,000 pounds in one Ton
So, multiply 2,000 lbs by 8T to get the total number of pounds
2,000 x 8 = 16,000 lbs
16,000 lbs = 8T
All sides of an equilateral triangle are equal, so all three sides are 9 cm.
To find h, use the pythagorean theorem. This requires use of only one right triangle, where we use b as our h.
a^2+b^2=c^2
(4.5)^2+b^2=(9)^2
(20.25)+b^2=(81)
b^2=(81/20.25) or 4
square root both sides
b=2
