Step-by-step explanation:
45+90+x=180
135+x=180
x=180-135
x=45
Answer: 8.125 inches
Step-by-step explanation: Ok so if the plant grew 3.25 inches every month, and there were 2.5 months, you need to multiply 3.25 by 2.5 to get the total amount of growth. So that would be 8.125
Answer:
x the (x) value of the ordered pair, it is proportional.
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope of the given line = 4
slope of the req. line = 4
equation of the line
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y + 8 = 4(x - 3)
y + 8 = 4x - 12
4x - y - 12 - 8 = 0
4x - y - 20 = 0

Answers: x = -17 and x = 64</h3>
====================================================
Explanation
Consider three scenarios:
- A) The value of x is the smallest of the set (aka the min)
- B) The value of x is the largest of the set (aka the max)
- C) The value of x is neither the min, nor the max. So 8 < x < 39.
These scenarios cover all the possible cases of what x could be. It's either the min, the max, or somewhere in between the min and max.
--------------------
We'll start with scenario A.
If x is the min, then that must mean 39 is the max as it's the largest of the set {18, 36, 16, 39, 27, 8, 34}
The range is 56, so,
range = max - min
56 = 39 - x
56+x= 39
x = 39-56
x = -17 which is one possible answer
--------------------
If instead we go with scenario B, then x is the max and 8 is the min
range = max - min
56 = x - 8
56+8 = x
64 = x
x = 64 is the other possible answer
--------------------
Lastly, let's consider scenario C. If x is not the min or the max, then it's somewhere between the min 8 and max 39. in short, 8 < x < 39.
Note that range = max - min = 39-8 = 31 which is not the range of 56 that we want. So there's no way scenario C can be possible here.
