The freezing point of water is 0 C. Scientists use positive numbers to show temperatures above the freezing point water and nega

tive numbers to show temperatures below the freezing point of water.The freezing point of maple syrup is 18 C. What does -18'C represent in this situation

Answer:

The -18°C temperature as the freezing point of maple syrup means that the temperature at which maple syrup changes from liquid to solid (that is, freezes) is 18° below the freezing point of water.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is explained that the freezing point of water is used as the standard or reference point to calibrate the Celsius scale.

The scientists use 0°C to represent the freezing point of water and subsequently use positive numbers to indicate temperatures above the freezing point of water and negative numbers to indicate temperatures lower than the freezing point of water.

So, a temperature/freezing point of -18°C simply means that the temperature/freezing point is 18° lower than the freezing point of water.

Hope this Helps!!!

Find p and q for which the linear eqn has infinite solutions
jekas [21]

Answer:

p= 2.5

q= 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The lines should overlap to have infinite solutions, slopes should be same and y-intercepts should be same.

Equations in slope- intercept form:

6x-(2p-3)y-2q-3=0 ⇒ (2p-3)y= 6x -2q-3 ⇒ y= 6/(2p-3)x -(2q+3)/(2p-3)

12x-( 2p-1)y-5q+1=0 ⇒ (2p-1)y= 12x - 5q+1 ⇒  y=12/(2p-1)x - (5q-1)/(2p-1)

Slopes equal:

6/(2p-3)= 12/(2p-1)

6(2p-1)= 12(2p-3)

12p- 6= 24p - 36

12p= 30

p= 30/12

p= 2.5

y-intercepts equal:

(2q+3)/(2p-3)= (5q-1)/(2p-1)

(2q+3)/(2*2.5-3)= (5q-1)/(2*2.5-1)

(2q+3)/2= (5q-1)/4

4(2q+3)= 2(5q-1)

8q+12= 10q- 2

2q= 14

q= 7

mariarad [96]
Well, it depends on what he's doing. Is he walking, jogging, or running? If he walked at a normal pace for an hour he would burn 415calories.
