Answer:

x - 18°F = 2°F

x = 20°F

Step-by-step explanation:

First, write the equation with the information you know. It dropped 18°F from 6 to midnight, and by midnight the temperature was 2°F

Your equation should look like this: x - 18°F = 2°F

Move the constant to the right hand side and change it's sign:

x = 2°F + 18°F

Add the numbers to get x = 20°F

Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the height by use Pythagoras theorem on the right triangle:

h = sqrt (5^2 - 4^2)

= sqrt 9

= 3.

Volume of the prism = area of the triangle * length

= 1/2 * 3 * 4 * 10

= 1/2 * 12 * 10

= 60 cm^3.

Total area = area of 2 triangles + area 0f 3 rectangles

= 2 * 1/2 * 3 * 4 + 3 * 10 + 4 * 10 + 5 * 10

= 12 + 30 + 40 + 50

= 132 cm^2.

Which statement describes the lines whose equations are y=1/3x+12 and 6y=2x+6

ICE Princess25 [194]

First, you should solve both equations for the same variable. Since the first one is already solved for y, solve the second equation for y as well.

6y = 2x + 6 Divide both sides by 6
y = $\frac{1}{3}$ x + 1

You can see that both lines have a slope of $\frac{1}{3}$ .
Lines that have the same slope are parallel lines.

A bike rental service charges a $23.50 initial flat rate and then an additional $5.40 per hour. Write an equation in the slope-i

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

y = 5.4x + 23.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the service charges $23.50 for every hour, you have to multiply x by 23.5 like this: 23.5

There is a flat fee of $23.50, so you have to add 23.5 on top of that like this: 5.4x + 23.5

All of this has to add up to y; 5.4x + 23.5 = y
