Answer:
12 weeks
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given data
let the heights of the plants be y
and the number of weeks be x
Plant A
y=3x+8.5--------------1
Plant B
y=2.5x+14.5----------2
Required
The number of weeks taken for both plants to have the same height
,equate the two expressions above
3x+8.5=2.5x+14.5
3x-2.5x=14.5-8.5
0.5x= 6
divide both sides by 0.5
x= 6/0.5
x= 12 weeks
Gallons Per Min. because the independent quantity is the minute.
The expression is equivalent to 1.5 raised to the fifth power divided by 0.7 raised to the fourth power, all raised to the third power is; Option A; 1.5 raised to the fifteenth power divided by 0.7 raised to the twelfth power
<h3>How to solve exponents?</h3>
We want to find the expression that is equivalent to 1.5 raised to the fifth power divided by 0.7 raised to the fourth power, all raised to the third power.
The sentence above can be expressed as;
((1.5⁵)/(0.7⁴))³
This can be broken down into;
[1.5^(5 * 3)]/(0.7^(4 * 3))
1.5¹⁵/0.7¹²
Looking at the options, the only correct one is;
Option A; 1.5 raised to the fifteenth power divided by 0.7 raised to the twelfth power
