Answer: the value of a is less than b because its to the left
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The first one is your answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
What you do is you have to look at the 2/18 in the square root. That can come out to be 1/3. So you know that a 3 is going to be on the bottom.
Now you look at the x^5. What you do is you make it until you have 5 x's like this x, x, x, x, x. You then put them in pairs of two.
x,x x,x x. There are two pairs of two so that comes out.
So you have 1x^2sqrtx/3. which is the first one.
#1 is your answer.
x=ferns ; y=ivy
12x+8y=260
6x+15y=240
x=60 -(15/6)y
12(60+ (15/6)y + 8y = 260
x=60 -(15/6)y
720 - 30y + 8y = 260
x=60- (15/6)y
-30y +8y= 260-720 ==> -22y= -460
x=60 -(15/6)y
y= (-460)/(-22)= 20.9090909091
y=20.90
x=60 -(15/6)×20.90= 7.75
×(ferns)=7.75$
y(ivy)=20.90$
Answer:
<h2>
first piece: 5 in</h2><h2>
second piece: 10 in</h2><h2>
third piece: 32 in </h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
x - the length of the <u>first piec</u>e
2x - twice the length of the first piece (the length of the <u>second piece</u>)
6x - six times the length of the first piece
two inches more:
6x+2 - the length of the <u>third piec</u>e
first + second + third = 47 in {total length of the pieces of steel}
x + 2x + 6x + 2 = 47
9x + 2 = 47
9x = 45
x = 45:9
x = 5 in
first piece: 5 in
second piece: 2×5 = 10 in
third piece: 6×5 + 2 = 30 + 2 = 32 in
I find it convenient to look at the differences and the rate at which those differences are made up.
8. Jim is closing the $150 gap at the rate of $7.50 per week. He will catch up in
... 150/(7.5/week) = 20 weeks
9. At noon, the price of Stock A has increased by 0.05×3 = 0.15, so is now $15.90, which is $0.63 more than Stock B at that time. The prices are closing the gap at the rate of $0.05 +0.13 = $0.18 per hour, so will be the same after
... $0.63/($0.18/hour) = 3.5 hours . . . . after noon, at 3:30 pm

You can also write and solve equations for the prices of the stocks. Or you can use a graphing calculator to tell you the solution. When equations are involved, I like to solve them the simplest possible way: let technology do it.
You are given the value at a time, and the rate of change of that value, so the equations are easily written in point-slope form. You will note that the common price at 3:30 pm (15.5 hours after midnight) is one that is not a whole number of cents. (That's usually OK for when trading stocks.)
