Answer:

Sugar Maple

8 + 1.5x = 15.5

Fraser Fir

8 + 0.25x = 9.25

Sycamore

8 + 2.5x = 12.5

Oak

8 + 4x = 28

It <u>cannot</u> be <em>Red Maple</em> or <em>Linden</em>, because they are multiplying the number of years by the height it already has. We are looking for the height it <u>will have</u> BASED on the <u>rate</u> that Chang calculated.

Therefore, we are multiplying the <u>RATE</u> by the <u>NUMBER OF YEARS (x)</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

It cannot be red maple, because you are multiplying the height it already has, and not the rate it will grow by. The same goes for Linden.  

The right expression to represent the growth of Red Maple would be

8 + 3x = 23

The right expression to represent the growth of Linden would be

8 + 1.5x = 15.5

Therefore, again, the <u>correct answer(s)</u> would be: <u>Sugar Maple, Fraser Fir, Sycamore, and Oak</u>.

One square grid is formed of 400 squares. Another square grid is formed of 256 squares. If the two grids join with a third at th
Sav [38]
One square grid has an area of 400.
Another square grid has an area of 256.

The area of the third grid can be:

(squares in third grid) + 256 = 400

OR

256 + 400 = (squares in third grid)

We get this by applying the Pythagorean theorem.

So, the squares in the third grid can either be 144 or 656. And we only have 144 as an option, so that is your answer.

Your final answer is D. 144.

MATH HELP ASAP! PLEASE HELP! 20 POINTS!!
Aloiza [94]

The mean decreases, think about it, if every single value in a data set was decreased by the same number, the average would also go down by the same number

The median would also go down, because the value in the middle of the data set would now be smaller than before

The mode would also decrease, because the value that showed up the most in the data set has now also been decreased

The range, however, stays the same. If the lowest value in a data set was 3 and the highest was 10 and you subtracted 2 from each value in the data set, you would have the lowest at 1 and the highest at 8. But, 10-3 still equals 8-1, so the range is unchanged
