Answer:

1.4 centimeters each month

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that there are 12 months in a year. if the plant grew 16.8 centimeters in one year, you would have to divide 16.8 by 12 so your equation would be:

16.8/12 = 1.4

Lines 3x-2y+7=0 and 6x+ay-18=0 is perpendicular. What is the value of a?

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf a = 9 }$

Step-by-step explanation:

Two lines are given to us which are perpendicular to each other and we need to find out the value of a . The given equations are ,

$\sf\longrightarrow 3x - 2y +7=0$

$\sf\longrightarrow 6x +ay -18 = 0$

Step 1 : Convert the equations in slope intercept form of the line .

$\sf\longrightarrow y = \dfrac{3x}{2} +\dfrac{ 7 }{2}$

and ,

$\sf\longrightarrow y = -\dfrac{6x }{a}+\dfrac{18}{a}$

Step 2: Find the slope of the lines :-

Now we know that the product of slope of two perpendicular lines is -1. Therefore , from Slope Intercept Form of the line we can say that the slope of first line is ,

$\sf\longrightarrow Slope_1 = \dfrac{3}{2}$

And the slope of the second line is ,

$\sf\longrightarrow Slope_2 =\dfrac{-6}{a}$

Step 3: Multiply the slopes :-

$\sf\longrightarrow \dfrac{3}{2}\times \dfrac{-6}{a}= -1$

Multiply ,

$\sf\longrightarrow \dfrac{-9}{a}= -1$

Multiply both sides by a ,

$\sf\longrightarrow (-1)a = -9$

Divide both sides by -1 ,

$\sf\longrightarrow \boxed{\blue{\sf a = 9 }}$

Hence the value of a is 9 .

Pls Help: I need help

Anna11 [10]

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation: 0.571 is greater than 0.4. Therefore, 4/7 is greater than 2/5 and the answer to the question "Is 4/7 greater than 2/5?" is yes. Note: When comparing fractions such as 4/7 and 2/5, you could also convert the fractions (if necessary) so they have the same denominator and then compare which numerator is larger.
