Greg combined different weights of fertilizer, soil, and compost to make 29 kilograms (kg) of potting soil for some plants. the weight of fertilizer was x kg. the weight of soil was 2 kg more than three times the weight of fertilizer, and the weight of compost was half the weight of fertilizer. this is represented in the equation below: x + (3x + 2) + one half x = 29 what was the difference in the weights of soil and compost greg combined?

17 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

let the weight of fertilizer be x

It is given that combined weight is 29 kg

Weight of soil was 2 kg more than three times the weight of fertilizer

i.e.

soil weight is 3x+2

Also weight  of compost was half the weight of fertilizer

i.e. compost weight =

And combined weight

x+3x+2+=29

x=6 kg

Difference in weight of soil and compost

question

what is the value of the third quartile of the data set represented by this box plot? a. 19 b. 21 c. 26 d. 29

answer

c

< 4, -5>

step-by-step explanation:

starting from g. we move 4 right and then 5 down to get to h. that means the vector is < 4, -5>
