If the temperature at 1:00 is x, then Jonestown's temperature at 3:00 is 
x-10-8 (since it dropped 10 degrees then 8 more degrees)=x-18

Using x for Cooperville too, we get x-6-2 (since it drops 6 degrees then 2 more degrees) = x-8 

Since -8 is greater than -18, Cooperville's temperature is warmer and Jonestown's temperature is lower aka colder<span />

Answer:

a). (x - 18)

b). (y - 8)

c). Jonestown will be cooler.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Temperature in Jonestown and Cooperville was same at 1:00

By 2:00 the temperature in Jonestown dropped 10 degrees and by 3:00 dropped by 6 degrees.

Let the temperature at 1:00 was x°

Therefore, expression which represents the temperature drop will be

(x - 18)

B. In Cooperville drop in temperature was 6 degrees at 2:00 and 2 degrees at 3:00.

Let the temperature at 1:00 was y degrees

Therefore, expression which represents the temperature drop will be

(y - 8)

C. At 3:00, drop in temperature at Jonestown was (10 + 8) = 18 degrees and at Cooperville was (6 + 2) = 8 degrees

Therefore, Jonestown will be cooler.

Find the measurement of HI
Murljashka [212]
Answer: 15

Explanation: the triangle to the right is a dial action of the smaller triangle, therefore the triangles are similar. Since the sides of both triangles are corresponding if the corresponding side to JI is 5, and JI is 25 then it is a dialation by a multiple of 5. So since the corresponding side to HI is 3, HI is 15
