Answer:
Jake's answer is true; the change in temperature is -7.9° F.
Step-by-step explanation:
The change in temperature is the final value minus the initial value. Evening minus the morning.
The final value is 15.6° F, the initial value is 23.5° F.
So 15.6 - 23.5 = -7.9
Jake's answer is true.
Answer:
2x - y = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in standard form is
Ax + By = C ( A is a positive integer and B, C are integers )
Given
y = 2x - 6 ( add 6 to both sides )
y + 6 = 2x ( subtract y from both sides )
6 = 2x - y, that is
2x - y = 6 ← in standard form
Answer: Your choice is the first one above.
In our inequality, x is our unknown, so that is "a number" in the wording above. 1/2x means half the number. So we have half a number plus 3/4. Of course "plus" means sum, so we have "the sum of half a number and 3/4" so far. The inequality sign is greater than or equal to. That means that the left side CAN equal the right side and it can also be greater than the right side, but it's not ok to be less than the right side.
If Jeff has 5 grasshoppers, then he would have 15 crickets because x(grasshoppers)+10=y(crickets), and y(crickets)+5=z(ladybugs), which would leave Jeff with 20 ladybugs.
