Answer:

<h2>42 trees</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>48/1 x 7/8 = 6/1 x 7/1 (Simplify 48 and 8 because they have the common factor of 8)=42/1= 42</h3>

Answer:

Forty-two (42) of the trees were too small.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find 7/8 of 48.

\frac{7}{8} = 0.875

Multiply the quotient (0.875) by 48 to find \frac{7}{8} of 48.

0.875 × 48 = 42

60 POINTS PLEASE HELP ITS URGENT 1. Write a quadratic equation that can be solved by factoring. Solve your equation and show and
Vika [28.1K]

you have a quadratic equation that can be factored, like x2+5x+6=0.This can be factored into(x+2)(x+3)=0.

So the solutions are x=-2 and x=-3.

2. 

<span><span>1. Try first to solve the equation by factoring.  Be sure that your equation is in standard form (ax2+bx+c=0) before you start your factoring attempt.  Don't waste a lot of time trying to factor your equation; if you can't get it factored in less than 60 seconds, move on to another method.
</span><span>2. Next, look at the side of the equation containing the variable.  Is that side a perfect square?  If it is, then you can solve the equation by taking the square root of both sides of the equation.  Don't forget to include a ± sign in your equation once you have taken the square root.
3.</span>Next, if the coefficient of the squared term is 1 and the coefficient of the linear (middle) term is even, completing the square is a good method to use.
4.<span>Finally, the quadratic formula will work on any quadratic equation.  However, if using the formula results in awkwardly large numbers under the radical sign, another method of solving may be a better choice.</span></span>

What is the equation of a horizontal line passing through the point (1, 14)?
Klio2033 [76]
The equation line passing through a point is understood to be parallel to the x-axis. In this case, the equation should be expressed as y = b where b is any number. Since y = 14 in the point (1,14), the equation of horizontal line passing through this point is y = 14.

What is the perimeter of a rectangle is 154 feet. the length of the rectangle is 55 feet. what is the width of the rectangle? th
velikii [3]
Perimeter= (2 x Length) + (2 x width)
Do to find width:
Width= perimeter - (2 x length)
So now substitute in an equation
W= 154 - (55 x 2)
W= 154-110= 44
Remember 44 would equal the width when it is multiplied by 2. Now you have to divide by 2 to get the original.

Answer is 22

Question 3 (4 MARKS) Find the equation of the tangents to the curve of the function with rule y = x^2 at the points where x = a
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

(0 , -a²)

Step-by-step explanation:

tangent at x = a and x = -a

y = x²     (a , a²) and (-a , a²) must be on the curve and tangent to curve

gradient dy/dx = 2x

slope (m) at x = a is <u>2a</u>     and slope (m') at x=-a is<u> -2a</u>

line1: (y - a²) / (x - a) = 2a

        y - a² = 2a (x - a)                           y = 2ax - a²   ... (1)

line2: (y - a²) / (x + a) = - 2a                   y = -2ax- a²   ... (2)

(1) - (2): 4ax = 0       a≠0    x = 0

y = - a²

I wish I did it right, or ....
