Answer:

The required number of plants is 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

Nursery P charges $15 per plant plus a $50 delivery fee on any order. Nursery Q charges $20 per plant and no delivery fee.

If x number of plants that must be delivered for the total cost to be the same at both nurseries, then

15x + 50 = 20x

⇒ 5x = 50

⇒ x = 10

Therefore, the required number of plants is 10. (Answer)

The rise and span for a roof are shown. The pitch of a roof is the ratio of the rise to the half-span. If the rise is 8 feet and
Effectus [21]
<span>Half-span is half of span. Pitch of the roof is calculated as rise/(span/2). In this case, rise is 8 feet and span is 30 feet. So, the pitch can be calculated as 8/(30/2) or 8/15. Pitch is normally represented as the number of inches of rise per foot. So, to reduce 8/15 to match a foot, we multiply it by 12. So, (8/15) * 12 gives us 6.4 inches of rise per foot.</span>
