Bamboo plants grow rapidly. A bamboo plant is 130 inches tall. Tomorrow it will be 143 inches tall, the next day it will be 156

inches tall, and on the next day it will be 169 inches tall. Write a rule to represent the height of the bamboo plant as an arithmetic sequence. How tall will the plant be in 13 days?

The sequence described is 130, 143, 156, 169, ...

To write the general formula/rule of the arithmetic sequence described above, we will use the the general term of arithmetic progressions formula:

T_{n}=a+(n-1)d

Where,

  • a is the first term,
  • d is the common difference (difference in 2 terms)
  • n is the index of the term

Plugging in 130 as a and 143-130=13 as d, we get,

T_{n}=130+(n-1)(13)\\ = 130 + 13n - 13\\=117+13n

We can use this model to write our own rule:

H=117+13x

Where,

  • H is the height of the bamboo plant, in inches
  • x is the day number, starting from x=1 as DAY 1

To find how tall the plant will be on Day 13, we plug in 13 for x in the formula and get,

H=117+13(13)=286 inches.


ANSWER:

<u>Rule:</u> H=117+13x (H is height, in inches, and x is the Day Number)

13 days later, height of plant will be 286 inches.

Well, (y for bamboo plant, x per day) y=130+13x  just use 13 for x for the second part. (It is 169+130. 299.)

The density of lead is 11.4g/cm^3 at 25 degrees C. Calculate the volume occupied by 25.0g of lead
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

2.193 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

density is mass divided by volume:

density =  \frac{mass}{volume}

you can manipulate the formula by multiplying with volume:

density \times volume = mass

then dividing by density:

volume =  \frac{mass}{density}

in this case:

volume =  \frac{25g}{11.4 \frac{g}{cm}  }  = 2.193 { \: cm}^{3}

At a basketball game, a vendor sold a combined total of 142 sodas and hot dogs. The number of sodas sold was 38 more than the nu
kow [346]
X represents the number of sodas
y represents the number of hot dogs

142 = x + y
x = 38 + y

Substitute x in the first equation

142 = 38 + y +y
142 - 38 = 2y
104/2 = 2y/2
y =52

x = 38 + 52
x = 90
