Answer:

6 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of weeks be x.

<u>Then we have an equation:</u>

  • 6 + 1*x = 3 + 1 1/2 x
  • 6 + x = 3 + 1.5x
  • 1.5x - x = 6 - 3
  • 0.5x = 3
  • x = 3/0.5
  • x = 6 weeks

So after 6 weeks both 6-inch and 3-inch geraniums will have same height

Answer:

-3/5

-1/2

-0.4

0.6

4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

For this question I converted the fractions to decimals.

-3/5 = -0.6

-1/2 = -0.5

4/5 = 0.8

Start off with the negatives, as they are the lowest numbers. <em>The further they are from zero the lower they get.</em>

-0.6  (-3/5)

-0.5  (-1/2)

-0.4

Now there are only <em>2</em> positive numbers, so order them.

0.6

0.8 (4/5)

Put it all together:

-3/5

-1/2

-0.4

0.6

4/5
