Option A. $1\frac{1}{4}$ inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The given line plot shows the heights of flower in a garden.

In each plot the differences of the heights is of 1/4 inches.

As first plotted height is = $6\frac{1}{2}$ inches

next plotted height will be = $6\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{4}$

= $\frac{13}{2}+\frac{1}{4}$

= $\frac{26+1}{4}$

= $\frac{27}{4}=6\frac{3}{4}$ inches

and next plotted height is given = 7 inches

$\frac{1}{4}$ inches added to last plotted height = $6\frac{3}{4}+\frac{1}{4}$

= $\frac{27}{4}+\frac{1}{4}$

= $\frac{28}{4}$ = 7 inches

similarly last plotted height would be = $7\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{4}$

= $\frac{15}{2}+ \frac{1}{4}$

= $\frac{30+1}{4}$

= $\frac{31}{4}$

= $7\frac{3}{4}$ inches

Therefore, the height of tallest flower is $7\frac{3}{4}$ inches and the height of the shortest flower is $6\frac{1}{2}$ inches.

The difference of the heights = $7\frac{3}{4} -6\frac{1}{2}$

= $\frac{31}{4}-\frac{13}{2}$

= $\frac{31-26}{4}$

= $\frac{5}{4}$

= $1\frac{1}{4}$ inches

Option A. $1\frac{1}{4}$ inches is the answer.

Answer from: Quest

answer: if you weigh 60 pounds on earth, on the moon you will weigh about 10 pounds. if you weigh 120 pounds on earth, you will weigh about 20 pounds on the moon. since weight is caused by the mass of two objects that are near each other, the bigger the objects, the more the force of gravity.

step-by-step explanation: if you weigh 60 pounds on earth, on the moon you will weigh about 10 pounds. if you weigh 120 pounds on earth, you will weigh about 20 pounds on the moon. since weight is caused by the mass of two objects that are near each other, the bigger the objects, the more the force of gravity.

Answer from: Quest

1,407.5 hours

step-by-step explanation:

we first convert all the time to hours and then sum them up.

there are 24 hours in 1 day, in 58 days, there are 24 x 58 = 1,392 hours.

there are 60 minutes in 1 hour, thus, 30 minutes will be equivalent to 30 / 60 = 0.5 hours.

therefore, the number of hours it will take mercury to complete a full rotation is 1,392 + 15 + 0.5 = 1,407.5 hours
