Answer:
Independent variable: amount of water
Dependent variable: growth of the plant
Step-by-step explanation:
In the statement "Julie notices that her plant grows one inch for every liter of water that it receives" it is implied that the growth of the plant is related proportionally to the amount of water it receives.
We know the amount of growth in function of the amount of water
The dependant variable, the result, is the growth of the plant.
Then, the independent variable is the amount of water, as it is the input to calculate the amount of growth.
For my answer, I got -47 1/2
<span>erry starts rowing at 2 pm from the west end of the lake, and Tao starts rowing from the east end of the lake at 2:05 pm.
------
Terry DATA:
rate = 60 meter/min ; time = x min ; distance = r*t = 60x meters
-----
Tao DATA:
rate = 40 meter/min ; time = x-5 min ; distance = r*t = 40(x-5) meters
--------------------------
If they always row directly towards each other at what time will the two meet?
------
Equation:
dist + dist = 2000 meters
60x + 40(x-5) = 2000
20x = 1800
x = 90 minutes

Let's convert this fraction to an equal fraction which holds a denominator of 100, since it is a power of 10.
Since the denominator can be multiplied by 5 to achieve 100, we can multiply the entire fraction by 5 to create an equivalent fraction that has a denominator of 100:
17/20 = (17*5)/(20*5) = 85/100
To obtain a decimal from this fraction, take the numerator and move its decimal one place to the left for every 0 in the denominator. Since our denominator has two zeros, we will need to move the decimal place on the 85 two places to the left.
This gives us an answer of .85, which can also be expressed as 0.85.
If you are trying to simplify it, I think it would be -22<36. Im not sure because I haven't learned this that much in school yet. I do know that if you are confused on how to do it, you can use...

This is the order that you do to solve the problem, For example,
P stands for Parentheses
E stands for Exponents
M stands for Multiplication
D stands for Division
A stands for Addition
S stands for Subtraction
This is the order of how you solve the problem. If one of the things aren't in the particular problem, then skip that certain step. For example if Addition wasn't in the problem, then you would skip the A. I hope this helps!
