I disagree with the student because the slope is the rate of change. The slope would be 10 because the rocks are increasing by 10 every month.
The answer is 106 your welcome :-)
Answer:
42
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = the original number of bushes in garden A
Let x-9 = the original number of bushes in garden B
x-9-3=x-12 = bushes in garden B after transplanting 3
x+3 = bushes in garden A after transplanting 3
x+3=1.5(x-12)
x+3=1.5x-18
0.5x=21
x=42
There were 42 current bushes in garden A
Answer:
downwards
Step-by-step explanation:
the equation of a parabola in vertex form is
f(x) = a(x - h)² + k
where (h, k ) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier
• if a > 0 then parabola opens upwards
• if a < 0 then parabola opens downwards
for
f(x) = - 4(x - 3)² + 9 with a = - 4 < 0 , then
the parabola opens downwards
$16.76 divided by 4 = $4.19 each gallon
So $4.19 x 7 gallons = $29.33
