Answer:

<em>Height of tomato plant is the </em><u><em>dependent variable</em></u>

<em>Presence of walnut leaves in the soil is the </em><u><em>independent variable</em></u>

<em>Tomato plants grown without walnut leaves is the </em><u><em>control</em></u>

<u><em></em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>An independent variable is the variable in an experiment that can be altered to test for a certain result. It is independent, or does not change with change in other factors in the experiment.</em> In this case, the presence or absence, or quantity of walnut available in the soil is the independent variable in the experiment.

<em>A dependent variable varies, and depends on the independent variable. It is what is measured in the experiment.</em> In this case, the height of the tomato plants is the dependent variable that depends on the presence, absence or quantity of walnut in the soil.

<em>A control in an experiment, is a replicate experiment, that is manipulated in order to be able to test a single variable at a time.</em> Controls are variables are held constant so as to minimize their effect on the system under study. In this case, some of the tomato plants are planted without walnut in the soil, to test the effect of the absence of the walnut in the soil.

Algebra help - asymptotes
motikmotik

Find where the equation is undefined ( when the denominator is equal to 0.

Since they say x = 5, replace x in the equation see which ones equal o:

5-5 = 0


So we know the denominator has to be (x-5), this now narrows it down to the first two answers.


To find the horizontal asymptote, we need to look at an equation for a rational function: R(x) = ax^n / bx^m, where n is the degree of the numerator and m is the degree of the denominator.


In the equations given neither the numerator or denominators have an exponent ( neither are raised to a power)

so the degrees would be equal.

Since they are equal the horizontal asymptote is the y-intercept, which is given as -2.


This makes the first choice the correct answer.

prisoha [69]

Answer:

2.75s+2w\leq 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

s-------> the number of sodas

w-----> the number of bottled water

we know that

The inequality that represent the situation is equal to

2.75s+2w\leq 15

using a graphing tool

The solution is triangular shaded area

see the attached figure

The domain (number of sodas) is all positive whole numbers belong to the interval [0,1,2,3,4,5]

The range (number of bottled water) is all positive whole numbers belong to the interval [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7]
