Amber is starting a garden. She plants 2 flowers the first month. The next month, she plans three times more flowers (6 flowers)

. Each month, Amber plants three times more flowers than the previous month. How many flowers will Amber plant in the 4th month? A. Write a number sentence. (2 × 4) + 2 + 6 = x Multiply 2 flowers by the 4th month, then add the number of flowers from the first and second month. B. Make a table. In the first row, write 1st month - 2 flowers. In the next row, write 2nd month - 3 flowers. In the third row, write 3rd month - 4 flowers. Continue the pattern to find how many flowers Amber will plant in the fourth month. C. Draw a diagram. Use dots to represent flowers. Draw 2 dots for the first month. Draw 6 dots for the next month. Do this two more times and keep tripling the previous number of flowers to find the number of flowers planted in the fourth month.

This is a geometric progression problem. We can the general formula that can tell us how many flowers would be planted each month.
Let's write the terms that we know and see if we can find the pattern:

\begin{tabular}{lll}
Month & Number of flowers planted & Different form            \\
1     & 2                         & 2\cdot3^0 \\
2     & 6                         & 2\cdot3^1 \\
3     & 18                        & 2\cdot3^2 \\
4     & 54                        & 2\cdot3^3
\end{tabular}
\end{table}
The patern here is obvious. Let's write it down:
N=2\cdot3^{n-1}
This formula gives us a number of flowers planted in the n-th month.

A 100 foot ladder is leaning against a tree so that the top of the ladder is 96 feet above the ground. How far is the base of th
ahrayia [7]

Answer:The base of the ladder from the tree is 28ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Using pythagorean theorem

Let 100ft= hypothesis is the right angle triangle

Let 96ft be the height of the ladder

Let x be the base of the right angle triangle between the base of the ladder and the tree

h^2=a^2+b^2

100^2=96^2 +b^2

10,000=9216 +b^2

b^2=10,000-9216

b=sqrt(784)

b=28ft

On a piece of paper graph y= 2x-3. Then determine which answer matches the graph you drew. (there is 4 options not just three)
boyakko [2]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

since the slope (2) is positive the graph is similar to y=x, so graphs B and D are eliminated

so when x=1 we have

y=2(1)-3

y=2-3

y=-1

so the point is (1,-1), graph C eliminated

so it's A
