In a local city, the temperature at noon is -3C The temperature is expected to decrease by 2.5C each hour until the temperature

LiRa [457]

Writing the equation that governs this situation:

-3C - (2.5C/hr)x = -18C

Simplifying, -3 - 2.5x = -18, or 3 + 2.5x = 18

Combining like terms: 2.5x = 18-3 = 15

Then x = 15/2.5 = 6. The temp. will reach -18C after 6 hours.

What is the solution of this system of linear equations? 3y = 3 y equals StartFraction 3 over 2 EndFraction x plus 6.X + 6 y – S

Scrat [10]

Answer:

(0,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system of equations is

$y = \frac{3}{2}x + 6$

and

$\frac{1}{2}y - \frac{1}{4}x = 3$

We substitute the first equation into the second equation to get:

$\frac{1}{2} ( \frac{3}{2}x + 6) - \frac{1}{4}x = 3$

We expand to get:

$\frac{3}{4} x + 3 - \frac{1}{4}x = 3$

We group similar terms to get:

$\frac{3}{4}x - \frac{1}{4}x = 3 - 3$

$\frac{1}{2}x = 0$

$x = 0$

Put x=0 in to the first equation to get:

$y = 6$

Therefore the solution is (0,6)

How do percents show the relationship between quantities?

Bingel [31]

A percent is just that number over hundred, so if it was 20%, it would be 20/100. That could be termed to differentiate the quantity amounts
