Answer:

t(x) = 103 -0.0045x

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Let the equation:

t(x) = a + bx

be the linear equation that represent temperature at an elevation x.

Temperature at 6000-foot level = 76 f

76 = a + 6000b

Temperature at 12000-foot level = 49 f

49 = a + 12000b

Solving the two equation, we get,

76-49 = -6000b\\27=-6000b\\\\b = \dfrac{-27}{6000}\\\\b = -0.0045\\76 = a + (-0.0045)6000\\76 = a -27\\a = 76 + 27\\a  =103

Thus, we can write the linear equation as:

t(x) = 103 -0.0045x

SIMPLIFY THE FOLLOWING EXPRESSION
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

-37m+6

Step-by-step explanation:

mkay so when working with simplifying any expressions like that, you wanna start with getting rid of your brackets. To do that, you simply take the number directly outside the bracket and you multiply it by everything inside. Let's take -9(m+2) first. You have to multiply everything inside the bracket by -9, so you have -9*m and -9*2, so you end up with -9m and -18. Now you do that to the second part of the equation (4*6 and 4*-7m) and you end up with 24 and -28m. Now you join all your terms together, and you have -9m-18+24-28m. Now all you do is add like terms (so -9m + -28m and -18+24) and you end up with a simplified expression of -37m+6. I hope this helped a little :)).
