Plant grows at 3CM per day
equation: y= 3x
21 is y so 21= 3x. divide by 3 so it's been 7 days
Answer:
m = -1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
If you have any questions about the way I solved it, don't hesitate to ask me in the comments below =)
To find the original amount, you divide the product by the percentage.
112.79 / 0.15 ≈ 751.933 (the 3's repeat infinitely).
To check your answer, multiply 751.933 by 0.15.
751.933 * 0.15 = 112.78995 ≈ 112.79
Answer: Santa's speed in still air is 6 miles per minute
Speed of the wind is 1 mile per minute
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the speed of Santa in still air. It is assumed that in still air. She is flying with the wind. If the speed of the wind is y, then him total speed is x + y
It takes Santa 5 minutes to fly 35 miles with the wind.
Speed = distance / time
It means that
x + y = 35/5 = 7
It takes him 7 minutes to fly 35 miles against the wind. This means that his total speed will be x - y
Speed = distance/time. Therefore,
x - y = 35 /5 = 5 - - - - - - 1
Substituting x = 7 - y into equation 1, it becomes
7 - y - y = 5
-2y = 5 - 7 = -2
y = -2/-2 = 1
x = 7 - y = 7 - 1
x = 6
Answer:
80 pieces of wire.
Step-by-step explanation:
It may not come out evenly. If there is a remainder, it won't matter. Just throw it away and go with the integer answer.
Change 3 3/4 to a decimal
3.75
Change the 25 foot roll to inches.
25 feet * 12 inches / foot = 300 inches.
Now how many pieces of wire do we get.
1 piece of wire/3.75 inches = x pieces of wire / 300 inches
3.75 * x = 300
3.75 * x / 3.75 = 300 / 3.75
x = 80
