Jack was planting a tree. He was to dig a hole that was 3 feet deep for every 5 feet of tree height. How deep should he dig the hole for a tree that is 17feet high.
Calculations
Cross multiplication

=
5x = 2 x 13
Divide by 5 to isolate x

=
x = 10.2
Answer = 10.2
First, find out how much ribbon there is.
3 x 12 = 36
Now, see how many times you can divde that by 8.
36 can only be divided by 8 four times, and there would be 4 inches of ribbon left.
So, you would be able to make 4 bows, with 4 inches of ribbon remaining.
If you would like to know what is the solution of the inequality x/3 > 1, you can calculate this using the following step:
x/3 > 1 /*3
x > 1 * 3
x > 3
The correct result would be x > 3.
Amount= Deposit or initial amount ( 1+ percent increase) ^period of time
So Amount= 50(1+0.1)^3
= 50(1.1)^3
= 50(1.331)
=66.55
So she will have $66.55 in 3 years.
