What we know:
12 hour period from 8pm to 8am
temperature dropped from 8°F to 16°F from 8pm to 8am

We need to find temperature at 4 am.

We can start by setting up points:
8pm is are starting point with 8°F, we can express it as (0,8), 0 represents initial time from 0 to 12 hour span.
8am is the ending point with 16°F, we can express it as (12,16), 12 represents the end time of 0 to 12 hours span.
We will use these points to find slope.
slope=m=(16-8)/(12-0)=8/12=2/3

Now, we can set up an expression to find any temperature at a specific time.  Aslo, x represents the hours not the the specific time of 4am. We will use 8 since 4am is the 8th hour of the 12 hour span. Using slope of 2/3 and the y intercept of (0,8) since we were already at 8°F at the initial time of 0 we have the function:

f(x)=2/3x+8 

f(8)=2/3(8)+8= 40/3≈13.3°

A small garden measures 8 ft by 7 ft. A uniform border around the garden increases the total area to 110 ft 2. What is the width
Alik [6]

Answer: 3

Step-by-step explanation:

You can answer this question by using the equation

(8+x)(7+x)=110

The x represents the width, as we do not know the area. If you simplify the equation, it becomes 56+15x+x2=110.

If you move all the terms to the left side, and rearrange it, it can become x^2+15x-54=0

This can be simplified into (x-3)(x+18)=0

This equation makes it so that x is either 3 or -18. It is not possible for a width to be -18, so the width must be 3.

Someone pls help asap this is due tmrw !!<br><br> x - 3y = -12<br> 2x + 3y = 3
hram777 [196]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve this system of equations we will add them

x-3y=-12

2x+3y=3 now +3y-3y=0

3x=-12+3

3x=-9

x=-3

plug in the first equation

-3-3y=-12

-3y=-12+3

-3y=-9

y=3

Ayana has 220 coins in her piggy bank Of those 40percent are pennies. Out of the coins that are not pennies 25 percent are partn
Rzqust [24]
To find a percent of a number, multiply the percent by the number.

First we find the number of pennies.

40% of 220 =

= 40% * 220

= 0.4 * 220

= 88

88 coins are pennies.

220 - 88 = 132

132 coins are not pennies.

Now we find 25% of 132.

25% of 132 =

= 25% * 132

= 0.25 * 132

= 33

33 coins are partners.

(Did you mean quarters instead of partners?)
