To make calculation easier, we first multiply
1.35 × 100 = 135
then we need to find how many groups of 5 are there in 135.
to do so, we simply take
135 ÷ 5 = 27
therefore, the answer is <u>27.</u>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The initial height of a Japanese maple sapling is 14 inches.
The tree is expected to grow 2.5 inches each month. This increase in height is linear, thus it is in arithmetic progression.
The expression for arithmetic progression is
Tn = a + (n-1)d
Where a = the first term of the series
d = common difference
Tn is the nth term of the series
n = the number of terms.
From the information given
a = 14 inches because it is the initial height of the tree
d = 2.5 because it is the difference in height between 2 consecutive months
n = m( number of months)
Tn = f(m)
function models the relationship between the height of the tree f(m) and the number of m months of growth will be
f(m) = 14 + 2.5(m-1)
Well according to the slope intercept equation.
Y = mx +/- b
The slope is the value m
The y intercept is b
To graph the function, one sure way to do it is simply make a table of values picking any x values that fall within the graph space, and finding out the resulting y values and using the points to graph.
For instance for the first graph, if x = 0, y = 5, that is one possible point. Keep on choosing x values to graph.
