16.5 degrees below the starting temp, whatever that is. If its 0, then -16.5 degrees.
The first equation would be (.5)5-11=-8.5, because the metal has been cooling for 5 hours.
The device that 'aids' in the cooling would be -5-3=-8, because it is a separate variable that cools the metal, so the amount the device cools is independent of the natural cooling amount, and the equation is independent of the natural cooling equation.
You then add -8.5 and -8, because the device has lowered 8.5 degrees and 8 degrees. This equals -16.5 degrees, or a decrease of 16.5 degrees.
Answer:
(Down Below)
Step-by-step explanation:
Plug in the value of x in the left column for all the values in the equation. I will do a couple for you.
Since -4 is the value of x, substitute it into the equation for x.

-1

0

You can do the rest. You got this! Comment if you need more help!
It is (c) NML
Because MN and ML is the vertex and the point meeting is M which is the angle.
The M is the angle because the common letter of both vertex is the letter M
