Answer: it will take 10 minutes to get back to room temperature.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the room temperature is 25 degrees. The current temperature of the soup before the decrease would be 25 + 50 = 75 degrees.

The soup drop about 5 degrees every minute. This is a linear rate. The rate at which the temperature is decreasing is in arithmetic progression. The formula for determining the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is expressed as

Tn = a + (n - 1)d

Where

a represents the first term of the sequence.

d represents the common difference.

n represents the number of terms in the sequence.

From the information given,

a = 75 degrees

d = - 5 degrees (it is decreasing)

n = t

We want to determine how long it will take to get back to 25 degrees, . Therefore,

25 = 75 -5 (t - 1) = 75 - 5t

5t = 75 - 25 = 50

t = 50/5 = 10 minutes

Solve the equation for x
KengaRu [80]
You can do this 2 ways, one is knowing the special right triangles called triplets. An example of a triplet would be 3-4-5 where the largest value is the hypotenuse. In this example, the other 2 sides are 3 and 4 and the missing side is the hypotenuse, so using the knowledge of triplets, we can find that the hypotenuse is 5.

algebraically, we can use the Pythagorean theorem; a^2+b^2=c^2 where a and b are the opposite and adjacent and where c is the hypotenuse. We can then substitute in the values to get : 3^2 + 4^2 = c^2. When simplified, we get 9+16=c^2. Simplify further, and get 25=c^2. Now we Square root both sides to solve for C. Finally, we get C=5. Your missing side is 5.
