A tree grows 1 3/4 feet per year. How long will it take the tree to grow from a height of 21 1/4 feet to a height of 37 feet?

So hmmm from 21 1/4 to 37, let's check the difference, to see how many feet is that.

\bf 37-21\frac{1}{4}\implies 37-\cfrac{21\cdot 4+1}{4}\implies 37-\cfrac{85}{4}\impliedby LCD~is~4
\\\\\\
\cfrac{148-85}{4}\implies \cfrac{63}{4}

so hmmm now, its growth rate is    \bf 1\frac{3}{4}\implies \cfrac{1\cdot 4+3}{4}\implies \cfrac{7}{4}

so.... the tree grows 7/4 in 365 days( a year ), how many days does it take it to get to 63/4 feet?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
\stackrel{growth}{feet}&\stackrel{time}{days}\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
\frac{7}{4}&365\\\\
\frac{63}{4}&d
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{\frac{7}{4}}{\frac{63}{4}}=\cfrac{365}{d}\implies \cfrac{7}{4}\cdot \cfrac{4}{63}=\cfrac{365}{d}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{28}{252}=\cfrac{365}{d}\implies d=\cfrac{252\cdot 365}{28}\implies d=\cfrac{91980}{28}\implies \boxed{d=3285}

50-0<br> ———(12.0-0) +0 = <br> 12.0-0 <br><br> Just a warm up
vagabundo [1.1K]

\frac{50}{12} x 12

the 12 in the numerator (top) and the 12 in the denominator (bottom) cross out so you are left with 50.

Answer: 50

For which positive integer values of $k$ does $kx^2+20x+k=0$ have rational solutions? Express your answers separated by commas a
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

-10,10

Step-by-step explanation:

The given quadratic equation is

k {x}^{2}  + 20x + k = 0

The discriminant of this equation is given by;

D =  {b}^{2}  - 4ac

where a=k, b=20, c=k

For rational solutions, the discriminant must be zero.

{20}^{2}  - 4 \times k \times k = 0

Simplify to get:

400 - 4  {k}^{2}  = 0

This implies that:

400  = 4  {k}^{2}

100 =  {k}^{2}

Take square root to get:

k =   \pm\sqrt{100}

k =  \pm10

k =  - 10 \: or \: k = 10

A box can be filled completely using 9 layers of 11 units cubes. What is the volume of the box?
mote1985 [20]

The volume of the box is 99 unit cubes.

<h3>What is the volume of the box?
</h3>

A cube is a three-dimensional object that has six faces, twelve edges and eight vertices. The length, width and height of a cube usually has equal dimensions. The volume of the box is a function of the dimension of the cubes in it and the number of layers.

Volume of a box = number of layers x amount of units

9 x 11 - 99 unit cubes
