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)
Answer:
depends on the options
Step-by-step explanation:
a parallel line would be y = 1/2x + b, where b is any number
When solving these proportions we just remember when moving a number from one side to the other if it started in the numerator it ends up in the denominator and vice versa.
I'll do it in two steps here for teaching purposes; it's not too hard to go directly to the answer.
Answer:
h = 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write equation
2.4(5h + 10) - 3 = 27
Step 2: Distribute
12h + 24 - 3 = 27
Step 3: Combine like terms
12h + 21 = 27
Step 4: Subtract 21 on both sides
12h = 6
Step 5: Divide both sides by 12
h = 6/12
Step 6: Simplify
h = 1/2
