Answer: the dwarf tree grew by 3 inches.
the semi dwarf tree grew by 6 inches.
the full size tree grew by 18 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent how much the semi-dwarf lemon tree grew.
Last month, a dwarf lemon tree grew half as much as a semi-dwarf lemon tree. This means that the amount by which the dwarf lemon tree grew is expressed as x/2
A full-size lemon tree grew three times as much as the semi-dwarf lemon. This means that the amount by which the full-size lemon tree grew is expressed as 3x
Together, the three trees grew 27 inches. This means that
x/2 + x + 3x = 27
Cross multiplying by 2, it becomes
x + 2x + 6x = 54
9x = 54
x = 54/9
x = 6 inches
The dwarf tree grew by 6/2 = 3 inches.
The full-size lemon tree grew by 3 × 6 = 18 inches
Answer:
3610 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
Remark
If you take the Cube Root of the volume, that will give you the length of an edge of the cube. If you square the edge, you get the area of one of the faces of the cube.
The Cost = the Area of 1 face * 10 dollars. is the answer.
Given
Volume = 6859 cubic feet
Cost per square foot = 10 dollars.
Solution
V = 6859 feet^3 Take the cube root of both sides
Edge = ∛V
Edge = ∛V = ∛6859
Edge = 19 feet exactly.
Area of the floor = s^2
Area of the floor = 19^2
Area of the floor = 361 square feet
Cost = 10 * 361 = $3610
Each person payed $175
First add the cost up:
$900 on transportation + $500 hotel room= $1400 total
8 people paying $1400 means divide 1400 by 8 to see how much one person payed.
1400/8 = 175
Each person payed $175
Answer:
Divide both the numerator and denominator by the largest number that divides evenly into both to simplify the fraction
In the example, divide 2 by 2, which equals 1, and divide 20 by 2, which equals 10. This leaves 1/10, which is the simplified form of the fraction with a decimal.
