This question was once asked before so I will put it here.
The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "x = 2; a = 5; b = 3" A 5 inch tall bamboo shoot doubles in height every 3 days. If the equation y=ab^x, where x is the number of doubling periods, represents the height of the bamboo shoot.
Answer:
y=17/2 and x=15/8
Step-by-step explanation:
By subsitution, we get 4x+4x+1=16, so 8x=15. Thus, x=15/8. Next, we plug x in to find y. y=4*15/8 +1, or 15/2 +1 = 17/2
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for the area of a parallelogram is A=bh. In this case, the base is 4 and the height is two so the equation would be 4*2 which would be eight.

Answer: 12/25</h3>
====================================================
Reason:
60% = 60/100 = 0.6 is the probability of making any given free-throw.
1 - 0.6 = 0.4 is the probability of missing any given free-throw.
We have these probabilities
- A = P(making 1st, missing 2nd) = 0.6*0.4 = 0.24
- B = P(missing 1st, making 2nd) = 0.4*0.6 = 0.24
The probability of making exactly one free throw is A+B = 0.24+0.24 = 0.48
Convert this to a fraction:
0.48 = 48/100 = (4*12)/(4*25) = 12/25
