Katerina is a botanist studying the production of pears by two types of pear trees. she noticed that type a trees produced 20 percent more pears than type b trees did. based on katarina's observation, if the type a trees produced 144 pears, how many pears did the type b trees produce?

120 pears

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the  number of pears produced by Type B be x

Number of pears  produced by type A=144

  According to question

Type A produce 20% more pears than B

x+ x ×20%= 144

x+x×= 144

= 144

=144

x= 144×

x=120 pears

Hence, Number of pears produced by B= 120 pears

Hence, the correct answer is 120 pears

step-by-step explanation:

84/3.5 = 24

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?
