Answer: the dwarf tree grew by 3 inches.
the semi dwarf tree grew by 6 inches.
the full size tree grew by 18 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent how much the semi-dwarf lemon tree grew.
Last month, a dwarf lemon tree grew half as much as a semi-dwarf lemon tree. This means that the amount by which the dwarf lemon tree grew is expressed as x/2
A full-size lemon tree grew three times as much as the semi-dwarf lemon. This means that the amount by which the full-size lemon tree grew is expressed as 3x
Together, the three trees grew 27 inches. This means that
x/2 + x + 3x = 27
Cross multiplying by 2, it becomes
x + 2x + 6x = 54
9x = 54
x = 54/9
x = 6 inches
The dwarf tree grew by 6/2 = 3 inches.
The full-size lemon tree grew by 3 × 6 = 18 inches

Divide 36 by 50 to get .72, and then convert it to a percentage
Answer:
B: y = -2/3x - 10/3
Step-by-step explanation:
The point is at (-2,-2), therefore when you input -2 into the desired equation, it should yield -2 as our output. If we use the equation B, the equation becomes
-4/3 - 10/3 which is -6/3. After dividing it we get -2 as the output.
To find the line yourself we use the point slope formula
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
The line is parallel to the one on the graph so the slope or <em>m</em> is equal to -2/3
We input the coordinates we want for y1 and x1.
y - (-2) = -2/3 (x - (-2))
y + 2 = -2/3x - 4/3
y + 6/3 = -2/3x - 4/3
y = -2/3x - 10/3
