Answer:

<u>7/8 feet</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to add two frctions you need to make their denominator the same,

3/8 can be kept as it is and we can multiply the top and bottom of 1/2 by 4 in order to ger 4/8. Now it is easier to add together,

3/8 + 4/8= <u>7/8</u>

Write an equation for the line that has a slope -8/9 and goes through the point (-7, 7)
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

y = (-8/9)x + 0.77777

Step-by-step explanation:

We already know the slope, so the only thing left to find is the y-intercept.

To find the y-intercept, we can <u>plug in the slope and point to the slope-intercept form equation</u> (y = mx+b, where m=slope and b=y-int.)

y   =     m *  x    + b

(7) = (-8/9)*(-7)   + b

<u>Now, just solve for b!</u>

(7) = (-8/9)*(-7)   + b

7 = 56/9 + b

7 - (56/9) = b

b = 0.777777 (repeating decimal, usually signified by a little line above the 7)

so now we just <u>plug in the slope and y-intercept we found into y = mx + b.</u>

y = mx + b

y = (-8/9)x + 0.77777

When purchased, the height of a Japanese maple sapling is 14 inches. The tree is expected to grow 2.5 inches each month. Which f
victus00 [196]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial height of a Japanese maple sapling is 14 inches.

The tree is expected to grow 2.5 inches each month. This increase in height is linear, thus it is in arithmetic progression.

The expression for arithmetic progression is

Tn = a + (n-1)d

Where a = the first term of the series

d = common difference

Tn is the nth term of the series

n = the number of terms.

From the information given

a = 14 inches because it is the initial height of the tree

d = 2.5 because it is the difference in height between 2 consecutive months

n = m( number of months)

Tn = f(m)

function models the relationship between the height of the tree f(m) and the number of m months of growth will be

f(m) = 14 + 2.5(m-1)
