Answer: The required number of plants Nestor can [lot in 1 hour is 6.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that Nestor works at a garden where he pots plants. It takes him $2\dfrac{1}{2}~\textup{hour}$ to pot 15 plants.

We are to find the number of plants he can plot in 1 hour.

We will be using the UNITARY method to solve the problem.

We have

Number of plants Nestor can plot in $2\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{5}{2}$ hour = 15.

So, the number of plants he can plot in 1 hour will be

$\dfrac{15}{\frac{5}{2}}=15\times\dfrac{2}{5}=6.$

Thus, the required number of plants Nestor can [lot in 1 hour is 6.

15 divided by 2 1/2=6
Nestor can pot 6 plants in an hour. (I'm guessing that it said 2 1/2 hours)

Answer:

It is all determined by how many spaces and which way the decimal point moves.

Step-by-step explanation:

So here are two examples

Example 1:

500000.00

To write this in scientific notation you would move the decimal place to the left.

You would move it 5 digits to the left so the exponent of 10 would be 5

$5 * 10^{5}$

Example 2

0.0000042

Here to write this in scientific notation you move the decimal place to the right.

You would move it 6 digits to the right so the exponent would be -6

$4.2 * 10^{-6}$

P = 5

I am not sure if this is correct. However, P is used to represent the addresses and there are 5 addresses. Therefore p = 5.

X-y=3 X+2y=-6 Solve using substitution

Tresset [83]

X-y=3=>x=3+y
X+2y=-6
=========
3+y+2y=-6
3+3y=-6
3y=-6-3
3y=-9
y=-3

X+2y=-6
X+2(-3)=-6
X-6=-6
X=0

I do not know how to count following formula x + 5 = 3

saw5 [17]

The x is going to be a negative number to get the 3. so start off minus 5 from plus 5 and minus five from the other side too. the positive 5 and the negative cancel out and then take it fromt here with three and the negative 5.
