Using a simple guess and check method, i started with the lowest common multiple of 3, and 27 (the total growth) and used 3. if you plug i the numbers, we will say a is the dwarf lemon tree, b is the semi-dwarf lemon tree, and c is the full lemon tree, you know 3times2 equals 6. if you triple 6 you get 18. so if A grew 3 inches , B had to have grown 6 inches, and C had to have grown 18 inches. add them all and you get 27. so the dwarf lemon tree grew 3 inches, semi dwarf grew 6 inches, the full size grew 18 inches.

scoundrel [369]

Answer: y = 21x

Step-by-step explanation:

y in this expression represents the total amount of money, in dollars, the students raise from selling x flowerpots.

21 is the price of each flower pot.

x is the number of flower pots sold.

If for instance, they sold 30 flower pots, y(total amount in dollars) would be;

= 21x

= 21 * 30

= $630

one interior angle of a polygon is equal to 800 and each of the other interior angles are 128 degrees. Find the number of sides
KiRa [710]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information:

Interior angle of a polygon cannot be more that 180°.

One interior angle = 80^{\circ}

Other interior angles are  = 128^{\circ}

Let n be the number of sides of the polygon.​

Sum of interior angles is

Sum=80+128(n-1)

Sum=80+128n-128

Combine like terms.

Sum=128n-48           .... (1)

If a polygon have n sides then the sum of interior angles is

Sum=(n-2)180

Sum=180n-360           .... (2)

Equating (1) and (2) we get

180n-360=128n-48

Isolate variable terms.

180n-128n=360-48

52n=312

Divide both sides by 52.

n=\frac{312}{52}

n=6

Therefore the number of sides of the polygon is 6.

Find the values of m and n<br> Need help, thank you!!!
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

m=45 degrees

n=15 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

m=45 degrees because other 2 angles in it's triangle =90+45=135 degrees

180 degrees in any triangle so m=180-135=45 degrees.

m+n=60 degrees so n=60-45=15 degrees

Given that cosθ = - and θ is in the second quadrant, find cscθ.
sdas [7]
Since sin²x+cos²x=1, we can plug (-12/13) for cos(x) to get (-12/13)²+sin²x=1 
= 144/169+sin²x=1. Subtracting 144/169 from both sides, we get 25/169=sin²x. Square rooting both sides, we get 5/13 as sinx (since √25=5 and √169=13,as well as that it's in quadrant 2 - if it was in quadrant 3 or 4, it would be -5/13). Since cscx=1/sinx, we can plug (5/13) in for sinx to get 13/5 as our answer
