Answer:
Let's start with part B. if it was originally 10 cm tall and it goes up 0.5 cm. each day, then we know that to go up one cm it needs two days. With that information we can say that 8*2 = 16. So it needs 17 days to go up 8.5 cm which would make it 18.5 cm tall.
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 0.5x + 10
0.5x + 10 = 18.5
0.5x = 18.5 - 10
0.5x = 8.5
x = 8.5/0.5
x = 17 days
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write them both like functions like this
Where
x=input
A=Output A
B=Output B
We want the output of A 3 times the output of B this can be written like this:
we replace with the functions
we solve for x
The output that makes the out put of A 3 times teh output of B is
Answer:
17 x 8= 136 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
So if you subtract the 0 out from the left side, the equation is now

. Since a x is common in both of the terms on the left side, you can factor it out, now making the equation look like

. When factoring, each of the separate things (x and (x-3)), must equal zero while the other one doesn't matter. So in order for the equation to be 0, the only potential options for x is 0 and 3. Therefore x=0 and x=3 are the two solutions
