<h2>Height of tree is 7.5 feet</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t be the height of pole.

Given that the tree is 5 feet shorter than a pole.

Height of pole = t + 15

Also given that the pole is 3 times as tall as the tree.

Height of pole = 3t

So we have

              t + 15 = 3t

                 2t = 15

                   t = 7.5 feet

Height of tree = 7.5 feet

What is y=-2/3 x + 4 in standard form?
maxonik [38]

Answer:

2x + 3y = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form is Ax + By = C, A, B and C must be intergers, cannot be  fractions or decimals

y = -2/3x + 4 First we want to get rid of  the fractions.  There is only one, so if we multiply both sides by 3 that should do it.

3y = -2x + 12 Now make the constant be on one side by itself

2x + 3y = 12

Y = f(x) = 2^x
Virty [35]

Answer:

The value of f(x) when x=-1 is 0.5

Therefore f(-1)=0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y=f(x)=2^x

to find the f(x) when x=-1 :

That is to find f(-1)

Put x=-1 in the given function f(x)=2^x

f(-1)=2^{-1}

=\frac{1}{2}

=0.5

Therefore f(-1)=0.5

The value of f(x) when x=-1 is 0.5

The sum of three consecutive odd numbers is 69. What are the three numbers?
n200080 [17]

Answer:

21, 23, 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so this one may seem a little tricky, so I'll try to explain it as best as I can. :)

So because they are consecutive odd numbers, that means they are odd numbers that are one after the other. This means each number is 2 apart from the next. So by using this, we know that there is a difference of 6 between the highest and lowest number. Now let's try and make an equation:

3o + 6 = 69

Now in order to get O by itself we have to subtract 6 from both sides:

3o = 63

Now we just have to divide by three on both sides:

o = 21

So now, we know that the lowest number is 21, but we have to add 2 to get 23, and then another 2 to get 25.

Hope this helps :)
