Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, lets get started.

Della bought a tree seeding that was 2\frac{1}{4} feet tall means \frac{9}{4} feet.

First year it grew 1\frac{1}{6} feet means it grew \frac{7}{6} feet.

It means after 1 year, the height of tree will be = \frac{9}{4}+\frac{7}{6}=\frac{41}{12}

After 2 years, the height of tree is = 5 feet

So, it grew in second year = 5-\frac{41}{12}

So, it grew in second year = \frac{60-41}{12}=\frac{19}{12}

So, it grew in second year=1\frac{7}{12} feet.   :  Answer

Hope it will help :)

6 tractors take 10days to collect the harvest. How long would it take 18 tractors to do the same amount of work?
Nutka1998 [239]
This is a question of proportionality. However, it is not direct proportionality as it is expected that as the number of tractors increases, the work is finished faster as opposed to fewer number of tractors. This is referred to as inverse proportionality.

Therefore;
6 tractors ----- 10 days
18 tractors --- x days

Then,
x = (6*10)/18 = 10/3 days = 3 days, and 8 hours.

This means that 18 tractors will take 3 days and 8 hours to collect the same harvest.

Suppose that the terminal point determined by t is the point 12 13 , 5 13 on the unit circle. Find the terminal point determined
Tom [10]

Answer:

  (a)  (-12/13, 5/13)

  (b)  (12/13, -5/13)

  (c)  (-12/13, -5/13)

  (d)  (12/13, 5/13)

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) The terminal point is effectively reflected across the y-axis, so the sign of the x-coordinate changes. (-12/13, 5/13)

__

(b) The terminal point is effectively reflected across the x-axis, so the sign of the y-coordinate changes. (12/13, -5/13)

__

(c) The terminal point is effectively reflected across the origin, so the signs of both coordinates change. (-12/13, -5/13)

__

(d) The terminal point is mapped to itself, so its coordinates remain unchanged. (12/13, 5/13)

There are 50 students in an auditorium, of which 2x are boys and y are girls. After (y - 6) boys leave the auditorium and (2x -
Dmitrij [34]
Total number of students=50
Number of boys=2x
Number of girls=y
total will be:
2x+y=50
⇒y=50-2x

when (y-6) boys left the auditorium the new number of boys was:
2x-(y-6)
=2x-y+6
but y=50-2x
thus the new number will be:
2x-(50-2x)+6
=4x-44

when (2x-5) girls left the auditorium the remaining number will be:
y-(2x-5)
=y-2x+5
but 
y=50-2x
thus the new number of girls will be:
50-2x-2x+5
=55-4x
new total number of students:
(55-4x)+(4x-44)
=11

probability of selecting a girl at random will be:
(55-4x)/11=9/13
13(55-4x)=9*11
715-52x=99
616=52x
x=12
thus
y=50-12=38
thus
x=12 and y=38

Tim made a down payment of $1,000. He pays $450 for 36 months. What is the total amount he pays for the car?
aniked [119]
B.) $17,200

Tim paid a total of $17,200 for the car.

Downpayment: $1,000
Total Monthly Payment: $450 * 36 mos. = $16,200

Total car payment = Down payment + Total Monthly Payment
TCP = $1,000 + $16,200
TCP = $17,200
