Answer:

to the nearest whole degree means that you look at the first decimal place. if it is less than 5, you keep the whole number and eliminate the decimal. if otherwise, the decimal is ≥5, you round up the whole number and eliminate the decimal.

The temperature of an enclosure for a pet corn snake should be an average of 81° F. For the well-being of the corn snake, the te

mario62 [17]

Answer: |81-x|<5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Temperature of an enclosure for a pet corn snake should be an average of 81° F.

Temperature in the enclosure should not vary by more than 5° F.

Let x= Temperature in the enclosure

Then, difference between average and current temperature should less the 5.

i.e. |81-x|<5 (required absolute value equation )

hence, the absolute value equation could be used to determine the minimum and maximum temperatures recommended for the corn snake enclosure:

|81-x|<5

How many quarts of pure antifreeze must be added to 8 quarts of a 40% antifreeze solution to obtain a 60% antifreeze solution

anyanavicka [17]

Let q be the number of quarts of pure antifreeze that needs to be added to get the desired solution.

8 quarts of 40% solution contains 0.40 × 8 = 3.2 quarts of antifreeze.

The new solution would have a total volume of 8 + q quarts, and it would contain a total amount of 3.2 + q quarts of antifreeze. You want to end up with a concentration of 60% antifreeze, which means

(3.2 + q) / (8 + q) = 0.60

Solve for q :

3.2 + q = 0.60 (8 + q)

3.2 + q = 4.8 + 0.6q

0.4q = 1.6

q = 4

Find the circumference of the circle. Then, find the length of each bolded arc. Use appropriate notation

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

$\text{1) }\\\text{Circumference: }24\pi \text{ m}},\\\text{Length of bolded arc: }18\pi \text{ m}\\\\\text{3)}\\\text{Circumference. }4\pi \text{ mi},\\\text{Length of bolded arc: } \frac{3\pi}{2}\text{ mi}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference of a circle with radius $r$ is given by $C=2\pi r$ . The length of an arc is makes up part of this circumference, and is directly proportion to the central angle of the arc. Since there are 360 degrees in a circle, the length of an arc with central angle $\theta^{\circ}$ is equal to $2\pi r\cdot \frac{\theta}{360}$ .
