Answer: 6 months


Step-by-step explanation:

1. If the first plant has an initial height of 3 inches and grows at a constant rate of 2 inches each month, you can write the following expression:

h=2m+3

Where h is the height and m is tshe number of months.

2. The constant rate of growth of the second plant is:

rate=\frac{29in-1in}{12months}=2.33inches/month

3. Then, the expression is:

h=2.33m+1

4. Equal both equations and solve for m:

2m+3=2.33m+1\\0.33m=2\\m=6.0

5. Therefore, the plants have the same height after 6 months.

Anvisha [2.4K]
For a question like this, all you have to do is remember that a percentage is simply a fraction expressed as a decimal. So, all we have to do is:
\frac{187}{550}, and then multiply our decimal answer by 100 to get the percentage:
\frac{187}{550} = 0.34
0.34 x 100 = 34
Therefore 34% of the students walk to school.
I hope this helped and remember to please try and understand the maths that got the answer, not just writing the answer down :))

Answer:

q = ±  \frac{5}{4\sqrt{p} }

Step-by-step explanation:

We are to solve for q in:

16pq² = 25

q² = \frac{25}{16p}

\sqrt{q^2} = ±\sqrt{\frac{25}{16p} } = ± \frac{5}{4\sqrt{p} }
