Answer:

80 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>hey there,</em>

<em />

< We know that the rope is 3 pieces long. To make this into an equation, let's just write x + y + z = 150.

Assuming "y" is our second piece, we can tell y = 2x, because it is two times the size of the first piece, which is "x". We also know "z" (our third piece): z = 30.

We can try inputting all the things we know now. x + (2x) + 30 = 150. From here, we can find that x = 40. Since y is our second piece, y = 2x, so 2 x (40) = 80. The second piece would be 80 feet long. >

Amber is starting a garden. She plants 2 flowers the first month. The next month, she plans three times more flowers (6 flowers)
Artist 52 [7]
This is a geometric progression problem. We can the general formula that can tell us how many flowers would be planted each month.
Let's write the terms that we know and see if we can find the pattern:
&#10;\begin{tabular}{lll}&#10;Month & Number of flowers planted & Different form            \\&#10;1     & 2                         & 2\cdot3^0 \\&#10;2     & 6                         & 2\cdot3^1 \\&#10;3     & 18                        & 2\cdot3^2 \\&#10;4     & 54                        & 2\cdot3^3&#10;\end{tabular}&#10;\end{table}
The patern here is obvious. Let's write it down:
N=2\cdot3^{n-1}
This formula gives us a number of flowers planted in the n-th month.

Digiron [165]

(side 1)² + (side 2)² = (diagonal)²

(9.5² + (14)² = (diagonal)²

90.25 + 196 = (diagonal)²

286.25 = (diagonal)²

√286.25 = √(diagonal)²

17 = diagonal
