How old am I if 500 reduced by 2 times my age is 388

1 answer:

4 0

Remember you can do anything to an equation as long as you do it to both sides
a=age

500 reduced by 2 times a is equal to 388

500-2a=388
minus 500 both sides
-2a=-112
divide both sides by -2
a=56

you are 56

Answer:

The answer is " $\bold{T = - 7.5 \cos \frac{\pi}{12}( t - 4 )+ 10.5}$ "

Step-by-step explanation:

Given value:

Temp-maximum= $18^{\circ}$

Temp. minimum = $3^{\circ}$

It is halfway between 10 am and 10 pm to 4 am.

The sinus and cosine roles could be used throughout the year to predict fluctuations in climate models. Its type of formula that can be used to model such information is:

$T = A \cos B(t-C) + D,$ where parameters are A, B , C, D, T is the ° C temperature and t is the time (1-24)
