Answer:
28 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
let the time period at which the temperature be equal in both Brownsville and Mesquite Texas be 'x'.
Given,
In Brownsville Texas, the temperature is expected to drop 1.5° each hour and In Mesquite Texas, the temperature is expected to drop 2° each hour.
Now, according to the question,
after 'x' hours,
⇒ 80° - 1.5°(x) = 94° - 2°(x)
⇒ 0.5°(x) = 14°
⇒ x = 28
Hence, Till 28 more hours the temperature in Mesquite Texas be greater than that in Brownsville.
There is no answer as this isn't an equation. And moreover it's in its simplest form.
Hello there!
First, we need to admit that math is a hard subject. So, how do we handle hard stuff? We find an easy way. Right?
Well same goes here. They give the fractions to drive us crazy. Let's find the easiest way...
The easiest way is to turn them into decimals.
1 3/7 = 1.42 which is the amount of pages he reads
2/3 = 0.67 minute.
The are asking us how many pages does he reads per minute.
So we gonna say:
Charlie reads 1.42 pages ......> 0.67
Charlie reads x pages.............> 1minute
Cross multiply
0.67 * x = 1 * 1.42
0.67x = 1.42
x = 1.42/0.67
x = 2.11
So, Charlie reads 2.11 pages in 1 minute.
I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have questions about the answer.
Thanks!
Answer:
13x+14
Step-by-step explanation:
2(3x+4)+6+7x
Distribute:
=(2)(3x)+(2)(4)+6+7x
=6x+8+6+7x
Combine Like Terms:
=6x+8+6+7x
=(6x+7x)+(8+6)
=13x+14
