Biologists have observed that the chirping rate of crickets is linearly related to temperature. A cricket produces 120 chirps pe

r minute at 70 F and 168 chirps per minute at 80 F. a) Write a linear equation in slope-intercept form that gives temperature as a function of the number of chirps per minute. Be sure to tell me what your variables stand for. b) What is the temperature if the crickets chirp at 150 chirps per minute? c) Reverse this function to give the number of chirps per minute as a function of temperature.

Answer:

a)   t = 5/24 c + 45.

b)  76 degrees F.

c)   c = (24/5) t - 216.

Step-by-step explanation:

a)      The rate of temperature change to number of chirps per minute =   (80-70) / (168 - 120)

=   10 / 48 = 5/24.

So we can write the equation as t = 5/24 c + b  where t = temperature, c = number of chirps and b is a constant.

Plugging in the values  t = 70 and c = 120 we can find the value of b:

70 = (5/24) * 120 + b

b = 70 -  5*5

b = 45

So the required equation is

t = 5/24 c + 45.

b)          When   number of chirps is 150:

Temperature t = (5 *150) / 24 + 45

= 76 degrees F.

c)   Reversing the process

t = 5/24 c + 45

5/24 c = t - 45

c =  (24/5) t - 45 * 24/5

c = (24/5) t - 216.

The degree of a vertex is <br><br> Help please
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

is the number of graph edges which touch v

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the degree of a graph, figure out all of the vertex degrees.  The degree of the graph will be its largest vertex degree.   The degree of the network is 5.  

 

Once you know the degree of the verticies we can tell if the graph is a traversable by lookin at odd and even vertecies.  First lets look how you tell if a vertex is even or odd.

What is the answer to the question -4•-10
Elis [28]
The answer is 40.
Because when you multiply 2 numbers, it becomes a positive number.(-4x10 or -2x3)
But if it were only one negative and positive then it would be negative because the answer is negative when you multiply by one negative number.

Please tell me how to solve this. if two people answer and one is the most specific, I will mark Brainliest.
Julli [10]

Answer:

3.

Step-by-step explanation:

You use a "centroid." There is a ratio. As provided, MW is 9. The ratio is 1:2, and CW is smaller. The answer is 3.

"The centroid is also known as the geometric center of the object. The centroid of a triangle is the point of intersection of all the three medians of a triangle. The medians are divided into a 2:1 ratio by the centroid." -cuemath .com > geometry > centroid-of-a-triangle

Two cards are drawn without replacement from a standard deck of 52 playing cards. What is the probability of choosing a red card
joja [24]

Answer: \dfrac{3}{51}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The total number of cards in a deck = 52

Number of red cards = 26

There are two types of red  cards : diamond and heart.

Number of diamond cards = 13

The probability that the first card is a diamond :-

\dfrac{13}{52}=\dfrac{1}{4}

Since diamond is also a red card.

Now, the total cards left = 51

The number of red cards left = 12

The probability that the second card is a red card (without repetition) is given by :-

\dfrac{12}{51}

Now, the probability of choosing a red card for the second card drawn, if the first card, drawn without replacement, was a diamond :-

\dfrac{1}{4}\times\dfrac{12}{51}=\dfrac{3}{51}
