Lets write a linear equation to represent this flower growth, lets call y the height of the flower in centimeters and x the number of days passed:
y = 205 + 2x
that means that the flower height y, will grow 2 centimeterrs each x days.
So if we have 235 cm height, we can find the amount of days needed if we replace in the equation and solve for x:
<span>y = 205 + 2x
</span>235 = 205 + 2x
2x = 235 - 205
2x = 30
x = 15
therefore the flower needs 15 days to reach 235 cm height
For
|a|>15
assume
a>15
a<-15
so
x+6>15
minus 6
x>9
x+6<-15
minu 6
x<-21
B is answer
You don't know your terms I suppose.
Arithmetic: goes from one term to the next by adding or subtracting the same amount
Ex. 3,12,21,30,39 (d=9)
(d means difference, use this for arithmetic sequences)
Geometric: goes from one term to the next by multiplying or dividing by the same amount
Ex. 1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128 (r=2) (r means ratio, its just the number multiplied or divided each time)
Answer is c
When you've got a squares bracket, this simply becomes the bracket twice, therefore, (r+s)2 becomes (r+s)(r+s)
You've then go to use FOIL, and this gives you r^2+rs+sr+s^2, and this cannot be simplified any further.
Therefore, the product of this is r^2 + s^2 + rs + sr
Hope this is what you're looking for :)
