Answer

The initial temperature was T = -7 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the initial temperature be T.

- The tempature was very cold

Temperarure = T

- Then it doubled

Temperature = 2T

- Then it dropped 10 degrees

Temperature = 2T - 10

- And then it increased by 40 degrees.

Temperature = 2T - 10 + 40 = 2T + 30

The tempature is now 16 degrees

Temperature = 16 degrees

2T + 30 = 16

2T = -14

T = -7 degrees

Hope this Helps!!!

Answer:

The starting temperature was -7 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the inicial temperature by 'X'.

First the temperature doubled, so now it is 2X.

Then, it dropped 10 degrees, so now it is 2X - 10

Then, it increased by 40 degrees, so now it is 2X - 10 + 40 = 2X + 30

Now, the temperature is 16 degrees, so we have that:

2X + 30 = 16

2X = 16 - 30

2X = -14

X = -7

The starting temperature was -7 degrees

Find the value of x?
Burka [1]

Answer:

<em>We </em><em>know </em><em>that </em><em>the </em><em>exterior </em><em>angle </em><em>of </em><em>a </em><em>triangle </em><em>is </em><em>equal </em><em>to </em><em>the </em><em>sum </em><em>of </em><em>two </em><em>opposite</em><em> </em><em>interior </em><em>angle. </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

So

25x + 57 + x = 45x

26x + 57 = 45x

57 = 45x - 26x

19x = 57

Therefore x = 3

Hope it will help you

The altitude of a triangle is increasing at a rate of 1.5 1.5 centimeters/minute while the area of the triangle is increasing at
seraphim [82]

Answer:

The base reduces at 3.75cm/min

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let

h \to altitude

b \to base

A \to Area

So:

\frac{dh}{dt} = 1.5cm/min

\frac{dA}{dt} = 1.5^2cm/min

The area of a triangle is:

A = \frac{1}{2}bh

Calculate b when A =88cm^2; h =8cm

A = \frac{1}{2}bh

88=\frac{1}{2} * b * 8

88 =b * 4

Solve for b

b = 88/4

b = 22

We have:

A = \frac{1}{2}bh

Differentiate with respect to time

\frac{dA}{dt} =\frac{1}{2}(h\frac{db}{dt} + b\frac{dh}{dt})

Substitute the following values in the above equation

\frac{dh}{dt} = 1.5cm/min        \frac{dA}{dt} = 1.5^2cm/min      b = 22     h = 8

1.5 = \frac{1}{2}(8 * \frac{db}{dt} + 22 * 1.5)

Multiply both sides by 2

3 = 8 * \frac{db}{dt} + 22 * 1.5

3 = 8 * \frac{db}{dt} + 33

Collect like terms

8 * \frac{db}{dt} = 3 -33

8 * \frac{db}{dt} = -30

Divide both sides by 8

\frac{db}{dt} = -\frac{30}{8}

\frac{db}{dt} = -3.75
