Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial height of a Japanese maple sapling is 14 inches.

The tree is expected to grow 2.5 inches each month. This increase in height is linear, thus it is in arithmetic progression.

The expression for arithmetic progression is

Tn = a + (n-1)d

Where a = the first term of the series

d = common difference

Tn is the nth term of the series

n = the number of terms.

From the information given

a = 14 inches because it is the initial height of the tree

d = 2.5 because it is the difference in height between 2 consecutive months

n = m( number of months)

Tn = f(m)

function models the relationship between the height of the tree f(m) and the number of m months of growth will be

f(m) = 14 + 2.5(m-1)

Jackie deposited $315 into a bank account that earned 1.5% simple interest each year.
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

copied from InesWalston expert

Money in the bank account after 3 years will be  $329.18

Step-by-step explanation:

Jackie deposited $315 into a bank account that earned 1.5% simple interest each year for 3 year, while no money was deposited into or withdrawn from the account.

We know that,

i = p.r.t / 100

Where,

i = interest

P = Principal = $315

r = Rate of interest = 1.5% annual

t = time period = 3 years

Putting the values,

i = 315 × 1.5 × 3 / 100 = $14.18

Total money in bank account = Principal + interest = 315 + 14.18 = $329.18

If x+y=10 and x-y=6 what is this value of x cube - y cube​
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

x cubed minus y cubed is equal to 504

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to know what the values of x and y are.  We can do this pretty easily, by just solving both equations for x, and equating them to each other:

With the first:

x + y = 10

x = 10 - y

And with the other

x - y = 6

x = 6 + y

Now that we have two definitions of x, we can say that the expressions are equal, and solve for y:

10 - y = 6 + y

10 - 6 = y + y

4 = 2y

y = 2

And now that we know what y is, we can find x:

x = 10 - y

x = 10 - 2

x = 8

So x is equal to eight.  We can check our answer by plugging x into the other equation and seeing if we get the same value for y:

x - y = 6

8 - y = 6

-y = 6 - 8

-y = -2

y = 2

So we know we solved that correctly.

Now if we cube each number, eight cubed is equal to 512, and 2 cubed is equal to 8.  If we subtract the latter from the former we get 504.

so x cubed minus y cubed is equal to 504
