Considering that the grows at a constant rate we can form an equation where x = how many years after it was planted
and y = its height
Now we just need to find how many feet it grows each year. To do that we just need to compare its height from a certain age to another:
6 years after it was planted : 7 feet,
so x=6 and y = 7
9 years after it was planted: 16 feet
so x= 9 y=16
With thay we can conclude that in 3 years , the tree grew 9 feet. To discover how much the tree grow each year we just nee to divide 9 feet by 3 years which is 3 feet every year.
To write the equatopn now we just need to find the y-intercept which we can discover by setting x to 0:
If in 6 years after the tree was planted it is 7 feet long , we can discover how long it was when it was planted by subtracting 6 years of growth (The slope ) which is 3
7 - 6(years)×3(feet the tree grow each year)
7 - 18 = -11
The tree was -11 feet long when it was planted
which is our y-intercept
( I know it doesnt make sense , but if you apply to a graph it will make more sense )
Now we can make the equation
y = 3x -11
The circumference of a circle can be found using the equation 2 π r
(2)(3.14)(4.5) = 28.26 (or 28 13/50 if you need it in fractions)
Answer:
x = (1 + sqrt(253))/14 or x = (1 - sqrt(253))/14
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
7 x^2 = x + 9
Subtract x + 9 from both sides:
7 x^2 - x - 9 = 0
x = (1 ± sqrt((-1)^2 - 4×7 (-9)))/(2×7) = (1 ± sqrt(1 + 252))/14 = (1 ± sqrt(253))/14:
Answer: x = (1 + sqrt(253))/14 or x = (1 - sqrt(253))/14
Answer:
C.-1.6
Step-by-step explanation:
distance: -1 - (-2) = 1
1 ÷ 5 = 1/5
-1 - 1/5 × 3 = -1 3/5 = -1.6
The answer would have to be 4x^2y
