Answer:

After 15 minutes, the temperature of both the furnaces will be same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the minutes when the temperature of both becomes same.

Now, as per question:

Temperature of the furnace after x minutes that is cooling at the rate of 15 degree per minute is given as:

T=1200-15x

Temperature of the furnace after x minutes that is heating at the rate of 5 degree per minute is given as:

T=900+5x

Now, equating both the temperatures, we get

1200-15x=900+5x\\1200-900=15x+5x\\300=20x\\x=\frac{300}{20}=15\ min

Therefore, after 15 minutes, the temperature of both the furnaces will be same.

Which are solutions of the equation x2 - 16 = 0? Check all that apply.
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]
So we want to know what x times 2 is. So think about this: multiply x with 2. We can find out what works and what doesn’t. So remind yourself that if you are multiplying a negative number, you get a negative. And when you minus a negative with a positive it’s the same as a negative + a negative. So it can’t be a negative as the answer is 0. Try each positive and you will find the answer to be

what is the volume of the largest sphere that you could carve out of a wooden block whose edges measure 8 m by 8 m by 8 m? Use t
Papessa [141]

Given data:

The given cube .

The expression for the volume of the sphere is,

\begin{gathered} V=\frac{4}{3}\pi(\frac{8}{2}m)^{3^{}} \\ =268.0826m^3 \\ \approx261m^3 \end{gathered}

Thus, the volume of the sphere is 261 cubic-m.
