Answer:

16° F.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The current temperature in Small town is 27 °F.

This is 5 degrees less than twice the temperature that it was six hours ago.

Question asked

What was the temperature in Small town six hours ago?

Solution:

Let the temperature in Small town six hours ago was x

As given that the current temperature in Small town is 27 °F and this is  5 degrees less than twice the temperature of six hours ago, the equation will be:-

<u>27 °F = 5 degrees less than twice the temperature of six hours ago</u>

27 °F = 2x-5°

Adding both sides by 5

27+5=2x-5+5\\32=2x

Dividing both sides by 2

\frac{32}{2} =\frac{2x}{2} \\16=x

Thus, the temperature in Small town six hours ago was 16° F.

If y=3x^3-2x and (dx)/(dy) = 3, find (dy)/(dt) when x=-2​
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

dy/dx = 9x²+2

dy = (9x²+2) dx

dy/dt = (9x²+2) dx/dt

if x = 2 and dx/dt=5 then

dy/dt = (9*2²+2)*5 = 38*5 = 190

Find the exponential function that satisfies the given conditions: Initial value = 37, increasing at a rate of 5% per year
beks73 [17]

The required function is:

Option 3: f(t) = 37. (1.05)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial value and rate is used to write exponential function

Here

Given

Initial value = 37

Rate = r = 5%

When the rate is 5%, the next year the quantity will be 1+0.05 = 1.05 time of the current quantity.

So,

The function can be written as:

f(t) = 37. (1.05)^t

For initial value, put t=0

f(t) = 37. (1.05)^0\\f(t) = 37 * 1\\f(t) = 37

Hence,

The required function is:

Option 3: f(t) = 37. (1.05)^t

Keywords: Functions, exponential functions

What are the different ways of solving systems of linear equations?
Juliette [100K]

1) Graphing- If you graph the numbers you will easily be able to identify the answer.

2) Substitute- Substitute numbers in for x or y until they're equal on both sides.

EX: 2x+2=10

Substitute numbers in until you get a number that makes it equal on both sides

x= 4

3) Elimination- Eliminate numbers from both sides until they're equal.

Hope this helped! :)
