Answer:
14.6°C
Step-by-step explanation:
Method 1
Higher value - lower value
12.2°C - (-2.4°C) *two negatives make a positive
12.2 + 2.4
14.6°C
Method 2
-2.4°C to 0°C = 2.4 increase (+2.4°C)
0°C to 12.2°C = 12.2 increase (+12.2°C)
Total change = 12.2 + 2.4= 14.6°C
The x intercept represents the maximum number of books he can buy
Let the first digit of the 2-digit number be x and the second digit be y.
Then the ratio (x/y) equals (1/2). Write a formula for y in terms of x.
The tens digit is 2 more than the units digit. Using the letters x and y, write out the proper equation.
Now solve your two equations simultaneously for x and y.
6 Cucumbers = $2
$2/6 = $0.33 per cucumber
12 peppers= $9
$9/12= $0.75 per pepper
6 tomatoes= $4
$4/6= $0.66 per tomatoes
9 cucumbers= $2.97
18 peppers= $13.5
21 tomatoes=$13.86
Total= (2.97+13.5+13.86)----> $30.33
