Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Allow me to rewrite your question and hope it will fit the original one:

<em>Jackson recorded the growth of a plant over 10 weeks. The equation </em><em>y=0.25x+4</em><em> represents the height y in inches over time x in weeks what does the y intercept represent In terms of the situation</em>

My answer:

As we know that y intercept is the value of y at the point where the line crosses the y axis (the value of x =0)

So in this situation, if x= 0, it means the height of the tree (y-intercept) initially be at 4 at week 0.

Hope it will find you well.

a pyramid whose altitude is 5ft weighs 800lbs. at what distance from its vertex must it be cut by a plane parallel to its base s
slavikrds [6]

A structure which has a square base and four triangular sides meeting at a point is called pyramid.

At distance of 3.97 feet from its vertex , pyramid is cut by plane  so that the two solids of equal weight will be formed.

<u>It is assumed that weight of pyramid is proportional to its volume.</u>

So,   w  = k V , where V is volume of original pyramid and v is volume of small pyramid and k is constant.

Let us consider that at h  distance,  pyramid is cut from its vertex. So a small pyramid is also formed.

Assume that base area of original pyramid is A and base of small pyramid is a.

Volume of original pyramid is,   V= \frac{1}{3}  *A* 5

So, weight of original pyramid,  W = k *(\frac{1}{3}  *A* 5) = 800

Volume of small pyramid is,  v = \frac{1}{3}* a* h

So, weight of small pyramid, w = k*(\frac{1}{3}* a* h)=400

<u>Since, base and height of small pyramid and original pyramid are in proportion.</u>

So,  \frac{a}{A}  = (\frac{h}{5}) ^{2}

       a = (\frac{h}{5} )^{2}A

Substituting value of a in  equation k*(\frac{1}{3}* a* h)=400

So, k*(\frac{1}{3}* \frac{h^{2} }{25}A * h)=400

       (k*\frac{1}{3}* A*5)*\frac{1}{5} *\frac{h^{2} }{25} * h)=400

Since, (k *\frac{1}{3}  *A* 5) = 800, substitute in above equation.

    So, 800*\frac{h^{3} }{125}=400\\\\h^{3}=\frac{125}{2}\\\\h=\sqrt[\frac{1}{3} ]{62.5}\\\\h=3.97 feet

What will the length of segment I' J' be?<br>​
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

5.333

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the length of dilated I' J' we need to dilate the shape.

To do this you multiply each coordinate by 8/3.

Ex: (x,y) ---> (8/3x, 8/3y)

H: (0,3) ---> (8/3*0, 8/3*3)

I: (1,1) ---> (8/3*1, 8/3*1)

J: (3,1) ---> (8/3*3, 8/3*1)

K: (2,5) ---> (8/3*2, 8/3*5)

Now we plot this. (Picture attached)

The new I' coordinate: (2.667, 2.667)

The new J' coordinate: (8, 2.667)

The new length would be 8 - 2.667 so we can find the distance between the two points.

Note we are subtracting the y coordinates and not x because x coordinates represent height and y represents length

8 - 2.667 equals 5.333

So the length of segment I' J' will be 5.333
