Liam is making barbecue ribs over a fire. The internal temperature of the ribs when he starts cooking is 40°F. During each hour

of cooking, the internal temperature will increase by 25%. The ribs are safe to eat when they reach 165°F.
Use the drop-down menus to complete an inequality that can be solved to find how much time, t, it will take for the internal temperature to reach at least 165°F.

Answer: You need to wait at least 6.4 hours to eat the ribs.

t ≥ 6.4 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial temperature is 40°F, and it increases by 25% each hour.

This means that during hour 0 the temperature is 40° F

after the first hour, at h = 1h we have an increase of 25%, this means that the new temperature is:

T = 40° F + 0.25*40° F = 1.25*40° F

after another hour we have another increase of 25%, the temperature now is:

T = (1.25*40° F) + 0.25*(1.25*40° F) = (40° F)*(1.25)^2

Now, we can model the temperature at the hour h as:

T(h) = (40°f)*1.25^h

now we want to find the number of hours needed to get the temperature equal to 165°F. which is the minimum temperature that the ribs need to reach in order to be safe to eaten.

So we have:

(40°f)*1.25^h = 165° F

1.25^h = 165/40 = 4.125

h = ln(4.125)/ln(1.25)  = 6.4 hours.

then the inequality is:

t ≥ 6.4 hours.

Save Work out the size of angle AED.<br> b) Work out x
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

x = 10°

Step-by-step explanation:

a). Since, opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary angles"

   Therefore, in cyclic quadrilateral ABDE,

   m∠ABD + m∠AED = 180°

   110° + m∠AED = 180°

   m∠AED = 180° - 110°

                 = 70°

b). AD = ED [Given]

   m∠EAD = m∠AED [Since, opposite angles of equal sides are equal in measure]

   m∠EAD = m∠AED = 70°

   By triangle sum theorem in ΔABD,

   m∠BAD + m∠ABD + m∠ADB = 180°

   m∠BAD + 110° + 40° = 180°

   m∠BAD = 180 - 150

                 = 30°

    m∠AEB = m∠AED + m∠DAB [By angles addition postulate]

    m∠AEB = 70° + 30°          

                  = 100°

    By triangle sum theorem in the large triangle,

    x° + m∠AEB + m∠EAB = 180°

    x° + 100° + 70° = 180°

    x = 180 - 170

    x = 10°

Which is equivalent to x^3 y^-7
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

For this case we must find an expression equivalent to:

x ^ 3 * y ^ {- 7}

By definition of power properties we have to meet:

a ^ {-1} = \frac {1} {a ^ 1} = \frac {1} {a}

Then, we can rewrite the expression as:

x ^ 3 * \frac {1} {y ^ 7} =\\\frac {x ^ 3} {y ^ 7}

Answer:

\frac {x ^ 3} {y ^ 7}
