By solving a linear equation we will see that the initial temperature was 66 degrees.

<h3>What was the initial temperature?</h3>

Let's define T as the initial temperature.

First, it increases by 18 F, then it decreases 6 F, and finally, it increases another 12 F, such that the end temperature is 94F.

Then we can write:

T + 18F - 6F + 12F = 94F

Now we can solve that linear equation to find T.

T = 94F - 18F + 6F - 12 F = 66 F

In this way, we conclude that the initial temperature was 66 degrees.

x = 10.22 in

Solution:

Width of the figure = x in

Length of the figure = (2x + 5) in

Area of the figure = 260 in²

<u>To find the value of x:</u>

<em>Area of the figure = length × width</em>

length × width = 260

(2x + 5) × x = 260

2x^2+5x=260

Subtract 260 from both sides of the equation.

2x^2+5x-260=0

Factor the above quadratic expression.

Quadratic equation formula:

$x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4 a c}}{2 a}

$x=\frac{-5 \pm \sqrt{5^{2}-4 \cdot 2(-260)}}{2 \cdot 2}

$x=\frac{-5 \pm \sqrt{2105}}{4}

$x=\frac{-5+\sqrt{2105}}{4}, \  x=\frac{-5-\sqrt{2105}}{4}

x = 10.22,   x = –12.72006

Dimension of the figure cannot be measured in negative terms.

Hence x = 10.22 in.

Which are examples of unit rates?
morpeh [17]
Answers: Choice A and Choice C

Saying "$45 per ticket" is the same as saying "$45 for every single ticket" or "one ticket costs $45"

Similarly, "30 seats for every row" is equivalent to "each row has 30 seats"

-------------

choices B and D aren't unit rates because the second value mentioned isn't 1. You would have to divide to get to a unit rate. 
choice B: 5/3 = 1.67 so there are roughly 1.67 shows every week
choice D: 100/5 = 20 meaning its $20 per ticket
