Answer:
We have the same homework!!!!
hours that passed= 10
Step-by-step explanation:
(1st step)We start with the expression:
(1st)82-0.4x=78
"STARTED at 82 degrees" 82
"Cooling DOWN 0.4 degrees" -0.4
"EACH hour" x
"NOW 78 degrees" =78
(2nd step) We want to get the variable x alone, so we have to do the opposite sign they have, to cancel the number out for it to be 0.
(1st) 82 -0.4x =78
(2nd) -82 ÷-0.4 =78
(3rd)Now, you work out the problem (transfer the numbers from the left to the right). First, you have to do the subtraction sign, not sure why.
(1st) 82 -0.4x =78
(2nd) -82 ÷-0.4 =78
(3rd) 78 -82= -4
-4÷-0.4= 10
X= 10
there you have it!
To make sure this is correct, you do the following.
82 -0.4 x 10
Solve using PEMDAS
-0.4 x 10 = -4
its time to add 82.
82 - 4 = 78
78 is the exact temperature that was said in the problem
The story problem of shawn's poster length and width is the correct one
Answer:
-5 - 3x > 10
Step-by-step explanation:
x = -6
Plug in the x value for each inequality:
-5 - 3(-6) > 10
-5 + 18 > 10
13 > 10
True
-3 - 5(-6) < -14
-3 + 30 < -14
27 < -14
False
1 - 2(-6) > 13
1 + 12 > 13
13 > 13
False
2 - (-6) < -3
2 + 6 < -3
8 < -3
False
Only one of these is true; that is the answer.
