Answer:

Amanda's

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

3/6 + 2/4

The L. C. M of 6 and 4 = 12

(6 + 6) / 12

12 / 12

= 1

Renne's result = 5/10

Amanda's result = 1 whole

Hence, Amanda's result makes more sense.

A biologist has been observing a tree's height. This type of tree typically grows by 0.22 feet each month. Fifteen months into t

Lyrx [107]

Data:

x: number of months

y: tree's height

Tipical grow: 0.22

Fifteen months into the observation, the tree was 20.5 feet tall: x=15 y=20.5ft (15,20.5)

In this case the slope (m) or rate of change is the tipical grow.

m=0.22

To find the line's slope-intercep equation you use the slope (m) and the given values of x and y (15 , 20.5) in the next formula to find the y-intercept (b):

$\begin{gathered} y=mx+b \\ 20.5=0.22(15)+b \\ 20.5=3.3+b \\ 20.5-3.3=b \\ 17.2=b \end{gathered}$

Use the slope(m) and y-intercept (b) to write the equation:

$\begin{gathered} y=mx+b \\ \\ y=0.22x+17.2 \end{gathered}$ A) This line's slope-intercept equation is: y=0.22x+17.2

B) To find the height of the tree after 29 months you substitute in the equation the x for 29 and evaluate to find the y:

$\begin{gathered} y=0.22(29)+17.2 \\ y=6.38+17.2 \\ \\ y=23.58 \end{gathered}$ Then, after 29 months the tree would be 23.58 feet in height

C) In this case as you have the height and need to find the number of moths you substitute the y for 29.96feet and solve the equation for x, as follow:

$\begin{gathered} 29.96=0.22x+17.2 \\ 29.96-17.2=0.22x \\ 12.76=0.22x \\ \frac{12.76}{0.22}=x \\ \\ 58=x \end{gathered}$ Then, after 58 months the tree would be 29.96feet tall

a sandwich shop has 60 stores and 70 percent of the stores are I California. How many stores are in California and Nevada

Aliun [14]

Answer:

The number of stores in California 42

The number of stores in Nevada 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The total sandwich shop in California and Nevada = 60

The percentage of shop in California = 70%

So, The percentage of shop in Nevada = 100% - 70% = 30%

Let The number of stores in California = c

And The number of stores in Nevada = n

Now, According to question

The number of stores in California = 70% of the total number of shops

I.e c = $\frac{70}{100}$ × total number of shops

Or, c = $\frac{70}{100}$ × 60

∴ c = $\frac{70\times 60}{100}$

or, c = $\frac{4200}{100}$

or, c = 42

So, The number of stores in California = c =42

Again

The number of stores in Nevada = 30% of the total number of shops

I.e n = $\frac{30}{100}$ × total number of shops

Or, n = $\frac{30}{100}$ × 60

∴ n = $\frac{30\times 60}{100}$

or, n = $\frac{1800}{100}$

or, n = 18

So, The number of stores in Nevada = n = 18

Hence The number of stores in California 42

And The number of stores in Nevada 18 Answer
