Answer: 3 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to note firstly that 12 inches = 1 foot.

The equation given to represent the height in the question, h = 3w + 3.

The number of weeks that it will take the plant to reach one foot will then be:

h = 3w + 3

12 = 3w + 3

3w = 12 - 3

3w = 9

w = 9/3

w = 3

It'll take 3 weeks

A straight slide in a playground design makes an isosceles triangle with the
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • First, the you need ti understand that the triangle is an isosceles right angled triangle. In other words, the base and height are equal in length. The third side is the slide. This is the longest side.
  • Next, we know that the formula for calculating the area of a right angled triangle is given by:

        A = 1/2 (base × perpendicular height)

  • The perpendicular height is equal to the base. Let's say the base is <em>x</em>. It means that the height is also x, since height = base.
  • Therefore, the formula will be:

       A = 1/2 (x.x)

           =1/2 (x²)

      32 = 1/2 (x²)

     Multiplying both sides by 2 gives:

     32×2 = x²

     64  = x²

       8   = x

To find the third side, we use the Pythagoras theorem:

    C² = A² + B²

         = 8² + 8²

         = 128

   C = √128

       = 8√2

However, the answer will not be exact, so we  multiply the length of the base and height by 2. This gives x = 16 (Length of base = length of height)

Repeating the steps above gives C = √ (16)² + (16)²

                                                           = √256

This corresponds to option D.

Please it’s an emergency
taurus [48]

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay first set a comparison since the two triangles are similar

x-1/20=x-1+27/3x+8

x-1/20 = x+26/3x+8

cross multiply

20x+520=3x^2+8x-3x-8

3x^2-15x-528=0

3(x^2-5x-176)=0

im kinda lazy to factor this out so i used an online calculator right here but factor it out like a good kid

x=16, x=-11

it has to be positive so x=16

C

The graph shows two lines, A and B.
EastWind [94]

Answer:


Part A: one solution:

Part B: x = 3, y = 4.


Explanation:


1) Part A: how many solutions does the pair of equations for lines A and B have?


The solution of a system of equations in a graph is given by the intersetion of the curves that represent the equations.


In this case, there are two straight lines, which intersect in one and only one point.


Hence, the system has one solution.


2) Part B: what is the solution to the equations of lines A and B?


The solution is the pair of coordinates of the intersection point. It is (3, 4).


Therefore, the solution is x = 3, y = 4.
