You can't really determine the amount of computers from this question, they're obviously not going to have one computer for everyone so half third, or even a fourth of the school population
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):
Use the slope(m) and y-intercept (b) to write the equation:
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:
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:
Then, after 58 months the tree would be 29.96feet tall
29 square inches
Step-by-step explanation:
5 x 5 = 25
Triangles = 0.5
25 + 2 = 27
27 + (4 x 0.5)
27 + 2 =29
Answer:
y = 2(x-3)^2 - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 2x^2 - 12x + 16
y = 2(x^2 - 6x + 8)
y = 2(x^2 - 6x +8 +1 -1) you "complete the square" by bringing the last term (8) up to "half of the middle co-efficient squared". Middle co-efficient is -6, half is -3, squared is 9. To get from 8 to 9 you must add 1 (+1), but if you add 1 you must subtract 1 (-1) so that you don't change the overall value of inside the bracket
y = 2(x^2 - 6x +9) - 2 (bring the -1 outside of the brackets)
y = 2(x-3)^2 - 2
