The temperature started at 82° and continued to rise at a rate of 0.6° each hour the temperature is now 85° determine the number
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Our goal here is 3 F because 82+3=85

Ok so you start at 82. For example, you can do 0.6×1=0.6 (no)

0.6×2=1.2 (no)

0.6×3=1.8 (no)

0.6×4=2.4 (no)

0.6×5=3 (yes)

82°+3°=85°

Which is a counterexample that disproves the conjecture? After completing several multiplication problems, a student concludes t
Dahasolnce [82]
When you make the product of a binomial of the kind x + a times other binomial that is of the kind x - a, you obtain another binomial (not a trinomial), so any example with that form will be a counterexample that disproves the conjecture:

(x + a) * (x - a) = x^2 - a^2

For example, (x +3) * (x - 3) = x^2 - 9. So, not always the product of two binomials is a trinomial.

What is the solution to the equation
Dimas [21]

Answer:

D) 21!

Step-by-step explanation:

So what we are dealing with here is some fractions that need to be made equal

Think about the fractions 1/2 and 2/4. They look different, right?

Well really, they are equal to another. All we need to do is simplify them!

If we divide the numerator and denominator (the top and bottom) of the fraction by, lets say, 2!

2 / 2 = 1

-          -

4 / 2 = 2

And viola! It's been simplified down, and now we can see they are alike!

2 pieces of a pie cut in 4 pieces is the same as 1 piece of a pie cut in half!

(pro-tip, always try dividing a fraction by 2 first)

So now, using the same principal, we can solve this problem

By taking the denominators and dividing them like this:

35 / 5 = 7

We get 7! Now since we need to make these fractions equal, lets multiply the 7 we just got by the numerator of the second fraction, 3

7 x 3 = 21

So if we put the 21 over the 35, we get 21/35!

Thus, our answer is 21!

The first term of an arithmetic sequence is-3 and the 15 term is 53. What is the common difference of the sequence?
Annette [7]
a_2=a_1+d
a_3=a_2+d=a_1+2d
a_4=a_3+d=a_1+3d
...
a_{15}=a_1+14d

Since a_1=-3 and a_{15}=53, the common difference d is

53=-3+14d\implies d=4
