Answer:

h(t) = 12 inches + (1 inch/week)t; continuous

Step-by-step explanation:

This situation can be described with a linear function.  The initial value of the plant height is 12 inches, and the weekly growth is 1 inch/week.

Thus, if h(t) represents the plant height at the end of the t-th week,

h(t) = 12 inches + (1 inch/week)t

The slope is 1 inch/week, and is continuous, since plan growth is continuous.

A bag contains 2 red, 5 blue, and 3 green marbles. A marble is chosen at random. What is the probability of NOT choosing a red m
Lapatulllka [165]

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Number of red = 2
  2. Number of blue = 5
  3. Number of green = 3
  • total number of marbles = 10
<h3>probability of not choosing a red marble = 1--choosing a red marble.</h3>

<u>Because</u><u> </u><u>probability</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>always</u><u> </u><u>one</u><u>(</u><u>1</u><u>)</u><u>.</u>

<em>Probability</em><em> </em><em>=</em>

<em>1 -  \frac{2}{10}</em>

<em>\frac{8}{10}</em>

<em>\frac{4}{5}</em>

<em>Is</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>probability</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>not</em><em> </em><em>choosing</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>red</em><em> </em><em>marble</em><em>.</em>

2 13/18 −z=1 19/36 <br><br>Answer
allsm [11]

Answer:

Answer is z= 43/36

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given,

2 13/18 - z = 1 19/36

Since 2 13/18 = 49/18  and 1 19/36 = 55/36

So we can write,

2 13/18 - z = 1 19/36

or 49/18 - z = 55/36

or 49/18 - 55/36 = z

or (98 -55)/36 = z

or 43/36 = z

Hence we got z = 43/36
