After m months the height of a plant is 10 + 3m millimeters. how tall is the plant after 8 months? three years?

A. 34 millimeters.

B. 118 millimeters.  

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that after m months the height of a plant is millimeters.

To find the height of plant after 8 months we will substitute m=8 in our given expression.

Therefore, the height of plant after 8 months will be 34 millimeters.

B. Now let us find height of plant after 3 years.

First of all we will convert 3 years into months by multiplying 3 by 12 as 1 year equals to 12 months.

Now let us substitute m=36 in our given expression.

Therefore, the height of plant after 3 years (36 months) will be 118 millimeters.

  5.   y=6; de=7; fg=8

  6.   x=4.2; jl=14.2; mn=13

step-by-step explanation:

when chords cross inside a circle, the product of the segment lengths is a constant.

5. dh×eh = fh×gh

  y = gh = dh×eh/fh = 3×4/2 . . . divide by the coefficient of gh

  y = 6

of course, the total chord length is the sum of the lengths of its segments.

  de = dh +eh = 3+4 = 7

  fg = fh +gh = 2+6 = 8

6. this problem works the same way as the previous one.

  x = lk = mk×nk/jk = 6×7/10 = 4.2

  jl = jk +lk = 10 +4.2 = 14.2

  mn = mk +nk = 6 +7 = 13

comment on chords and secants

you can think of the points h (problem 5) and k (problem 6) as points where the chords meet. a chord is part of a secant line, a line that intersects the circle in two points. one can also consider these points (h or k) to be the points where the respective secant lines meet.

then, the product that is a constant is the product of the distance from the meeting point (h or k) to one circle intersection with the distance from that meeting point to the other circle intersection. for problem 5, the constant is the product hd×he = hf×hg.

it turns out that this rule regarding the products of lengths to points of intersection is also true when the secants intersect outside the circle.

that is, you only need to remember one rule to work both kinds of problems.
