At the beginning of spring, Taylor planted a small sunflower in her backyard. When it was first planted, the sunflower was 25 in

ches tall. The sunflower then began to grow at a rate of 2 inches per week. How tall would the sunflower be after 7 weeks? How tall would the sunflower be after w weeks?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The sunflower then began to grow at a rate of 2 inches per week. This means that the rate of growth of the sunflower is in arithmetic progression. We would apply the formula for determining the nth term of an arithmetic sequence which is expressed as

Tn = a + d(n - 1)

Where

a represents the first term of the sequence.

d represents the common difference.

n represents the number of terms in the sequence.

From the information given,

a = 25 inches

d = 2 inches

To determine the height after 7 weeks, T7

n = 7

T7 = 25 + 2(7 - 1)

T7 = 25 + 12

T7 = 37 inches

To determine the height after w weeks, Tw

n = w

Tw = 25 + 2(w - 1)

Tw = 25 + 2w - 2

Tw = 23 + 2w

1.Show that the statement p: “If x is a real number such that x3 + 4x = 0, then x is 0” is true by
Genrish500 [490]

If x is a real number such that x3 + 4x = 0 then x is 0”.Let q: x is a real number such that x3 + 4x = 0 r: x is 0.i To show that statement p is true we assume that q is true and then show that r is true.Therefore let statement q be true.∴ x2 + 4x = 0 x x2 + 4 = 0⇒ x = 0 or x2+ 4 = 0However since x is real it is 0.Thus statement r is true.Therefore the given statement is true.ii To show statement p to be true by contradiction we assume that p is not true.Let x be a real number such that x3 + 4x = 0 and let x is not 0.Therefore x3 + 4x = 0 x x2+ 4 = 0 x = 0 or x2 + 4 = 0 x = 0 orx2 = – 4However x is real. Therefore x = 0 which is a contradiction since we have assumed that x is not 0.Thus the given statement p is true.iii To prove statement p to be true by contrapositive method we assume that r is false and prove that q must be false.Here r is false implies that it is required to consider the negation of statement r.This obtains the following statement.∼r: x is not 0.It can be seen that x2 + 4 will always be positive.x ≠ 0 implies that the product of any positive real number with x is not zero.Let us consider the product of x with x2 + 4.∴ x x2 + 4 ≠ 0⇒ x3 + 4x ≠ 0This shows that statement q is not true.Thus it has been proved that∼r ⇒∼qTherefore the given statement p is true.

Which one of the following formulas will find the sum of interior angles of a polygon with n sides
Yakvenalex [24]
<span><span>Each time we add a side (triangle to quadrilateral, quadrilateral to pentagon, etc), we </span>add another 180°<span> to the total of the interior angle.</span></span>  
Triangle, sum interior angle is 180
Square, is 360
Pentagon is 540  
So the formula is <span>180 ( n – 2 )</span>

If QRST below is a rectangle, what is the measure of angle T + angle R?
GenaCL600 [577]
I can't see QRST and I'm wondering how far below it's located.

But I do know that ALL of the angles in EVERY rectangle are
right angles ... 90°  each.

So if QRST is really a rectangle, then any two of its angles
add up to  (2 · 90°)  =  180° .

The lengths of three sides of a quadrilateral are shown below:
sasho [114]

Part A: To find the lengths of sides 1, 2, and 3, we need to add them together. We can do this by combining like terms (terms that have the same variables, or no variables).


(3y² + 2y − 6) + (3y − 7 + 4y²) + (−8 + 5y² + 4y)


We can now group them.


(3y² + 4y² + 5y²) + (2y + 3y + 4y) + (-6 - 7 - 8)


Now we simplify


12y² + 9y - 21


Part B: To find the length of the 4th side, we need to subtract the combined length of the 3 sides we know from the total length (perimeter).


(4y³ + 18y² + 16y − 26) - (12y² + 9y - 21)


Simplify, subtract like terms.


4y³ + (18y² - 12y²) + (16y - 9y) + (-26 + 21)


4y³ + 6y² + 7y - 5 is the length of the 4th side.


Part C (sorry for the bad explanation): A set of numbers is closed, or has closure, under a given operation if the result of the operation on any two numbers in the set is also in the set. For example, the set of real numbers is closed under addition, because adding any two real numbers results in another real number. Likewise, the real numbers are closed under subtraction, multiplication and division (by a nonzero real number), because performing these operations on two real numbers always yields another real number.

<em>Polynomials are closed under the same operations as integers. </em>
