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

Answer:

x = 3  &&  y = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Just solving the two equations

the first equation

y = 4/3 x +3

y  - 4/3 x = 3  ..............................................(1)

the second equation

y = -2/3x -3

y + 2/3 x = -3  ..............................................(2)

by substracting 2 from 1

-4/3x - 2/3x = -6

divide by -1

4/3x +2/3x = 6

6/3x = 6

2x = 6

x= 3

then subsititute by value x in any of given eqautions

Answer:

  $17.97

Step-by-step explanation:

It should be no surprise that the total cost is the sum of the costs of the items being purchased.

We can add the costs of repeated items into the sum several times, or we can use multiplication to find their cost. Most folks use multiplication to find the sum of repeated numbers.

  milk + strawberries + bananas

  = $3.49 + 2×$4.99 +6×$0.75

  = $3.49 +9.98 +4.50

  = $17.97

Jane spent $17.97 on these food ingredients.
