The statements could be true are:

The height of the plant after week 3 was about 2.6 inches. ⇒ A

The height of the plant after week 9 was about 3.8 inches. ⇒ C

Step-by-step explanation:

Mark recorded the growth of a plant over 8 weeks

The equation y = 0.2x + 2, represents the height y, in inches, after x weeks

From the equation

0.2 represents the rate of increasing of the height of the plant per week
2 represents the initial height of the plant

∵ y represents the height of the plant after x week

∴ x is the number of the weeks

∵ y = 0.2x + 2

∵ x = 3

- Substitute x in the equation by 3

∴ y = 0.2(3) + 2

∴ y = 0.6 + 2

∴ y = 2.6

∴ The height of the plant after 3 weeks is 2.6 inches

∵ x = 9

- substitute x by 9 in the equation

∴ y = 0.2(9) + 2

∴ y = 1.8 + 2

∴ y = 3.8

∴ The height of the plant after 9 weeks is 3.8 inches

The statements could be true are:

The height of the plant after week 3 was about 2.6 inches.

The height of the plant after week 9 was about 3.8 inches.

This rectangular patio is tiled using 50 cm by 50 cm square tiles. How many tiles are used?

Bad White [126]

Answer:

60 tiles are used

Step-by-step explanation:

1m equals 100 cm.

5m equals 500

3m equals 300

the whole thing is 500 by 300 which when you multiply gives you

150,000. When you multiple 50 by 50 it gives you 2,500. So when you divide 150,000 by 2,500 it gives you a total of 60 tiles. HOPE THIS HELPS

Probability of rolling factors of 20

Marizza181 [45]

If you are rolling a single six sided die numbered 1-6, you find that only 1,2,4, and 5 are factors of 20. Now the theoretical probability of an event is the ratio comparing the number of desired outcomes to the total outcomes possible.

In this case: we have 4 desired outcomes out of a total 6 outcomes possible with a single roll the die.. therefore, the probability you seek is $\frac{4}{6} = \frac{2}{3}$ or approximately 67%.

Which of the following properties justifies the statement 3 • 5 + 3 • 6 = 3 • 5 + 6 • 3?

aniked [119]

Answer: commutative property

Step-by-step explanation:

basically the commutative property of multiplication says that it doesn't matter what order you multiply the numbers, it will all equal the same.

the rule is "ab = ba"; in numbers, this means 6×3 = 3×6
