Let x be the <span>heights of a maple tree and y be the height of the cherry tree.
We know:
</span>
<span>The new ratio is obtained like this:
</span>
.
From the above equation we get
.
then
Solving the above equation for y we get:
So
So the first tree is (400-160=240) more taller than cherry tree.
There may be an error with the first answer choice because it can't have a negative. The problem is x + 2.6 = 3.5 correct?
Hope this helps!
The probability of drawing a 5 from card numbered 1 - 10 is 1/10 because only one card out of ten is numbered 5.
The probability of rolling a 2 on the cube is 1/6 because there are 6 faces of the cube with 6 different numbers. The probability of picking a 5 and rolling a 2 together is 1/60 because
1/10 x 1/6 = 1/60. You multiply them together because there will be 60 combinations: 10 card possibilities and 6 cube possibilities.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
see below for a graph
Step-by-step explanation:
To draw a graph on a grid, locate the point (4, -2) and use the slope to find another point. One such point will be 1 to the left and up 3*, at (3, 1). With two points, you can draw the line through them to complete the graph.

For a graphing tool that requires an equation, the point-slope form of the equation can be used:
y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . a line of slope m through point (h, k)
For the given slope and point, the equation of the line is ...
y +2 = -3(x -4)
y = -3x +10
_____
* The slope is "rise" over "run". The slope of -3 means that a <em>run</em> of +1 will result in a <em>rise</em> of -3. The given point is already below the x-axis, so we don't really want to find more points farther down. In order to go up on a line with negative slope, we must choose a point to the left of the given one.
$1810 because.....
11% of the first 5000 = $550
he earned 14 % on the rest that means 9000
14 % of 9000 is 1260
1260+550= 1810
