Answer:
Row 1 = 2 white flowers
Row 2 = 3 white flowers
Row 3 = 4 white flowers
Step-by-step explanation:
Instead of having 1.5 times as many pink flowers as white flowers, Molly has decided to plant a garden with twice as many pink flowers as white flowers per row. If she plants 3 rows, with 4, 6, and 8 pink flowers, how can you find the number of white flowers in each of those rows?
Let
White flowers = x
Pink flowers = 2x
Molly plants 3 rows with 4, 6 and 8 pink flowers
Number of white flowers in each row is
Row 1
Pink flowers = 4
2x = 4
Divide both sides by 2
x= 2
White flowers = 2 in row 1
Row 2
Pink flowers = 6
2x=6
Divide both sides by 2
x= 3
White flowers in row 2 = 3
Row 3
Pink flowers = 8
2x=8
Divide both sides by 2
x= 4
White flowers in row 3 = 4
Therefore, the number of white flowers in each rows are 2, 3 and 4 respectively
Let's look at the possibilities:
1. Reflection along the y-axis and rotation of 180 degrees by the origin 0. (Gives us 4 and then 2 in the end)
2. Reflection along the y-axis and reflection along the x-axis. (Gives us 4 and then 3 in the end)
3. Reflection along the x-axis and rotation 90 degrees by the origin 0. (Gives us 4 and then 1 in the end)
4. Rotation of 270 degrees by the origin 0. (Gives us 2 in the end)
Option 2 is the answer.
Best of luck!
The flight is in the shape of a parabola with a vertex 5 feet above the water and 1/2 * 33 = 16.5 feet horizontally from the point of leaving the water
y = a(x - h)^2 + k
where (h,k) is the vertex of the parabola and here it is (5 , 16.5), so we have the function:-
y = a(x - 16.5)^2 + 5
when x = 0 y = 0 so
0 = a(-16.5)^2 + 5
which gives a = -0.018365
So our function for the flight path is
y = -0.018365(x - 16.5)^2 + 5 Answer
You'll find it easier to understand if you illustrate the problem as what is shown in the attached picture. From the illustration and the problem description, two equations can be formulated:
HJ = 2JK
HJ + JK = HK
2JK + JK = 78
3JK = 78
JK = 78/3
JK = 26
