This DE has characteristic equation

with a repeated root at r = 3/2. Then the characteristic solution is

which has derivative

Use the given initial conditions to solve for the constants:


and so the particular solution to the IVP is

Mari bought 6 packages of tomato seeds and each package contains 24 seeds then
Seeds = (6) * (24) = 144.
Mari has a total of 144 seeds.
Mari planted a pack of seeds and has 15 germinated seeds.
144-24-15 = 105
Mari then has 105 seeds left.
Answer
C At least 100 but no more than 120 seeds will sprout
You want to know the factor by which 3 2/3 is multiplied to get 7 1/3.
1. You can estimate that it is 2 from 7/3 ≈ 2, then check by multiplication to see if that is right.
.. 2*(3 2/3) = 6 4/3 = 7 1/3 . . . . 2 is the correct factor.
2. You can divide 7 1/3 by 3 2/3 to see what the factor is.
.. (7 1/3)/(3 2/3) = (22/3)/(11/3) = 22/11 = 2 . . . . 2 is the factor Earl used.
3. You could see how many times you can subtract 3 2/3 from 7 1/3.
.. 7 1/3 -3 2/3 = (7 -3) +(1/3 -2/3) = 4 -1/3 = 3 2/3 . . . . . subtracting once gives 3 2/3
.. 3 2/3 -3 2/3 = 0 . . . . . . subtracting twice gives 0, so the factor is 2.
4. You could add 3 2/3 to see how many times it takes to get 7 1/3.
.. 3 2/3 +3 2/3 = (3 +3) +(2/3 +2/3) = 6 +4/3 = 7 1/3
We only need to add two values of 3 2/3 to get 7 1/3, so the factor is 2.

We have shown methods using multiplication, division, subtraction, addition. Take your pick.
The value of X would be 3.6 because if you divide the 4 by 2 to get the half triangle you now know the base and height for the triangle. Now you have to use tangent -1 to figure out the bottom right angle which is 56.3 degrees. Once you have the angle you can use Sin to figure out the missing side.
