Answer:

\frac{20}{27}  feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We can simply set up a ratio to solve this problem.

Since plant grew 5/9 foot in 3/4 month, how many feet (let it be x) can it grow in 1 month??

We can set up the ratio shown below, cross multiply and solve for x:

\frac{\frac{5}{9}}{\frac{3}{4}}=\frac{x}{1}\\\frac{5}{9}*1=\frac{3}{4}*x\\\frac{5}{9}=\frac{3}{4}x\\x=\frac{\frac{5}{9}}{\frac{3}{4}}\\x=\frac{5}{9}*\frac{4}{3}\\x=\frac{20}{27}

Hence, we can say the pepper plant will grow 20/27 feet in 1 month.

Effectus [21]
<span>Given the table that shows the hair lengths y (in inches) of your friend and her cousin in different months x.

Month      Friends Hair(in)      Cousins Hair(in)
    3                     4                              7
    8                    6.5                            9.

To solve for the cousins hair, recall that the equation of a line is given by

y = mx + c

From the table,

7 = 3m + c . . . (1)
9 = 8m + c . . . (2)

(1) - (2) ⇒ -2 = -5m
\Rightarrow m= \frac{2}{5} =0.4

Substituting for m into equation (1) gives:

7=3(0.4)+c \\  \\ \Rightarrow c=7-1.2=5.8

Therefore, the equation representing the growth of the cousin's hair is given by y = 1.2x + 5.8

Answer: y=9 (point B on the graph)

Step-by-step explanation:

y=3x

x=3

y=3(3) (3×3)

3x3=9

So 9(y)=3(3x)

Point B which is located at the 9 mark

Orthographic projection and isometric projection are two ways to show three-dimensional objects in a two-dimensional space, such
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

Orthographic Projection is used for making the projects but Isometric Projection is used to have better understanding of the object.

Orthographic drawings are typically two dimensional views of an object. For instance, if you were designing a table, you would draw a top view, side view and a bottom view. Should these three views not fully explain the design of the table other views would need to be drawn. When drawing an perspective view in an orthographic manner, you would utilize a 45 degree triangle for the lines that extend back or forward from the vertical lines. This type of perspective is not a true perspective because you can measure the true length of all the details shown. An isometric drawing is meant to depict a 3D image of an object in what appears to be a perspective view. However, similar to an orthographic perspective, all of the lines in an isometric drawing can be measured to their true length. What makes it different from an orthographic perspective is that its angled lines are drawn at 30 or 60 degrees or divisions of them. Drawing this by hand you would use a 30/60/90 triangle.

In either case, both types of perspectives can be accurately measured with a ruler in order to know the objects measurements.

Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

The GCF of 36, 48, and 72 is 12 so there will be 36 / 12 = 3 stacks of English books, 48 / 12 = 4 stacks of science books and 72 / 12 = 6 stacks of math books for a total of 3 + 4 + 6 = 13 stacks.
