The change in growth was 14 - 0.5 = 13.5 inches.
Since it is over the course of 5 weeks, divide 13.5 by 5.
13.5/5 = 2.7
2.7 = 270%
The rate of change was 270%. Hope this helps!
You divide the area and the base
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
2x² + 7x = 15 ( subtract 15 from both sides )
2x² + 7x - 15 = 0 ← in standard form
To factorise the left side
Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term
product = 2 × - 15 = - 30 and sum = + 7
The factors are + 10 and - 3
Use these factors to split the x- term
2x² + 10x - 3x - 15 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
2x(x + 5) - 3(x + 5) ← factor out (x + 5) from each term
(x + 5)(2x - 3) ← in factored form
Answer:
x=7.78
Step-by-step explanation:
142=10x+8x+2
Move all numbers with the same variables to each side to separate them.
142-2=10x+8x
140=18x
Divide by 18.
x= 140/18
x=7.78
