Do a proportion
20/100= 12/x
Cross multiply and divide
12 x 100= 1,200
1,200 divided by 20 is 60
Answer is 60 plants
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
n, n + 2, n + 4 - three consecutive even integers
the twice the sum of the second and third: 2[(n + 2) + (n + 4)]
twelve less than six times the first: 6n - 12
The equation:
2[(n + 2) + (n + 4)] = 6n - 12
2(n + 2 + n + 4) = 6n - 12
2(2n + 6) = 6n - 12 <em>use distributive property</em>
(2)(2n) + (2)(6) = 6n - 12
4n + 12 = 6n - 12 <em>subtract 12 from both sides</em>
4n = 6n - 24 <em>subtract 6n from both sides</em>
-2n = -24 <em>divide both sides by (-2)</em>
n = 12
n + 2 = 12 + 2 = 14
n + 4 = 12 + 4 = 16
<h3>Answer: 12, 14, 16</h3>
Answer: A. 3 ways: k, DE, ED (both DE and ED have line markers over top)
To name a line, we just need two points on the line. We list them in any order because the line extends forever in both directions. Contrast this with a ray where order does matter. The little k is another way to name a line, potentially simplifying things.
Choice B is close, but it mentions ray DE instead of line DE. Choice C is missing line ED. Choice D is a similar story as choice B. These facts allow us to rule out B through D.
