A tree was 17 feet tall when it was planted. It grew 8 times that height in 15 years.
How much taller is the tree than when it was planted?

A. 119 feet
B. 136 feet
C. 247 feet
D. 255 feet

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A. 119 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

the height of tree right now =

17 × 8 = 136 feet

the differences = 136 -17 = 119 feet

Answer 2

Answer:

A. 119

Step-by-step explanation:

In 15 years, the tree grew to a height of 8 x 17 = 136 feet. Since it was planted at a height of 17 feet, the tree grew 136-17=119 feet.

If a1 = 8 and an
An-1 + 2 then find the value of a4.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  a4 = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the recursive definition repeatedly.

  a1 = 8

  a2 = a1 +2 = 8 +2 = 10

  a3 = 10 +2 = 12

  a4 = 12 +2 = 14

_____

The recursive definition tells you the terms of the sequence have a common difference of 2. The explicit formula for a term of the sequence can be written as ...

  an = 8 + 2(n-1)

Then a4 is ...

  a4 = 8 +2(4 -1) = 8+6

  a4 = 14

50% of a number is 32
what is the number

Answers

Answer:

64

Step-by-step explanation:

Half (50%) of 64 would be 32

Answer:

64

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be x

according to the question ,

50 % of x = 32

50/100 * x = 32

50x = 32 *100

x = 3200/50

x = 64

therefore a number is 64

Suppose the purchase price of a dining room set is $950. If the sales tax is $47.50, what is the sales tax rate?

Answers

Answer:

5%

Step-by-step explanation:

this question is really asking what percent of 950 is 47.5?

is/of = %/100

47.5 is the 'is'

950 is the 'of'

'r' is the 'what percent'

47.5/950 = r/100

cross-multiply to get:

950r = 4750

r = 5

Answer:

5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Price x sales  tax rate = sales tax

950 x sales tax rate =47.50

sales tax rate =47.50/950

sales tax rate = .05 or 5%

In the past 100 years, scientists measured the movement of the continents to be 190.5 centimeters. If the continents moved the same amount each year, how much did the continents move in one year?

Answers

Answer:

The continents moved by 1.905 centimeters each year.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is solved by proportions, using a rule of three.

In the past 100 years, scientists measured the movement of the continents to be 190.5 centimeters. How much it moved in a year?

100 years - 190.5 centimeters.

1 year - x centimeters

[tex]100x = 190.5[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{190.5}{100}[/tex]

[tex]x = 1.905[/tex]

The continents moved by 1.905 centimeters each year.

A jar of 150 jelly beans contains 22 red jelly beans, 38 yellow, 20 green, 28 purple, 26 blue, and the rest are orange. Let B = the event of getting a blue jelly bean Let G = the event of getting a green jelly bean. Let O = the event of getting an orange jelly bean. Let P = the event of getting a purple jelly bean. Let R = the event of getting a red jelly bean. Let Y = the event of getting a yellow jelly bean. Find P(R)

Answers

Answer: [tex]\frac{11}{75}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

R is the event of getting a red jelly bean. 22 out of the 150 jelly beans are red. That means it is a [tex]\frac{22}{150}[/tex] chance of getting a red jelly bean.

Simplified that is [tex]\frac{11}{75}[/tex]

Samuel made a list of his test scores: 88, 100, 92, 80, 85, 94, and 90. What is the lowest test score he can get on his next test to have mean score of 90?

Answers

Answer:

he needs to get a 91 to have a mean score of 90

Step-by-step explanation:

add up all the known scores to get 629

let 's' = lowest test score

(629 + s) ÷ 8 = 90   [we divide by 8 because there are 7 known and 1 unknown score)

cross-multiply to get:

629 + s = 720

s = 720-629

s = 91

A machine depreciate in value at the rate of 10% every year on reducing balance. if the original cost is 20000 and the scrapped value is 13122, how long has the equipment been used?

Answers

Mark Brainliest please


Answer: 10 years

Explanation:


The original cost of the machine = 20000

The scrap value of the machine = 13122

Value of the machine = ( 20000 - 13122 ) = 6878

Depreciation of the machine for the first year = ( 6878 * 10 % )
= 687.8
So, the effective life of the machine is = ( 6878 / 687.8 )
= 10 years

A number, one-fourth of that number, and one-third of that number are added. The result is 38. What is the original number?​

Answers

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 12x represent the original number.

One fourth of that number can be represented by 3x, and one third of the number can be represented by 4x.

Create an equation that sets this equal to 38, and solve for x:

12x + 3x + 4x = 38

19x = 38

x = 2

The original number is represented by 12x, so plug in 2 as x:

12(2)

= 24

So, the original number is 24.
