A tree farm owner uses a grid to mark where to plant trees in the spring. The first tree is planted at (2, 3). Each of the other
trees is planted 3 feet east and 2 feet north of the previous tree 1. Draw and label the locations of the first four trees on the grid 2. Describe the pattern of the points that represent the tree's location. 3. What is the location of the seventh tree? Explain how you determined your answer.

Answer:
See attached image for the drawing of the first four trees (circled in green)
The patterns is:
x = 2+3n and y= 3+2n
Position of 7th tree is: (20,15) (circled in orange in the image)
Step-by-step explanation:
Starting at the location (2,3) the next x and y positions are given by:
x = 2+3n since the horizontal position needs to be increased by 3 units on each iteration,
and y= 3+2n since the vertical position needs to be increased by 2 units on each iteration
being n= 1 through 6 (to account for the next 6 trees that need to be planted)
With such pattern, the location of the seventh tree would be:
x = 2 + 3*6 =2 + 18 = 20
y = 3 + 2*6 = 3 + 12 = 15
That is, the point (20,15) on the plane.

Since the population is going to increase by a certain percentage, we have to add to the percentage to keep the original population.
Now, convert the percentage into a decimal. You can do this by moving the decimal place two places to the left.
Now, just multiply that by .
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
for
That means, angle is in the 3rd quadrant.
To find:
Value of cot(t)
Solution:
First of all, let us recall what trigonometric ratios are positive and what trigonometric ratios are negative in 3rd quadrant.
In 3rd quadrant, tangent and cotangent are positive.
All other trigonometric ratios are negative.
Let us have a look at the following identity:
here,
So,
But, angle is in 3rd quadrant, so value of
