Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know h is hours, what is T? Obviously temperature. Let's try plugging in a few values. at h=0, or hours since midnight, which is a fancy way of saying midnight, T = 50, so that meeans it starts at 50 degrees. What about at 1 hour after midnight? or h=1 (or 1 AM) well, T = 50-2(1) = 48. so 48 degrees. You can keep doing this, and what happens?

Well T keeps going down by 2 every time h goes up by 1. Well if T is temperature and h is hours since 12 AM we just replace the words. Temperature keeps going down by 2 (degrees) every time hours since midnight goes up by 1. You can probably write that a bit more well worded, but I wanted to show how you can get the answer from seeing what happens to the variables. Though let me know if you don't get it.

A sphere has radius of 42 m. If the radius is divided by 6, what is the effect on the surface area? HELP ASAP!

Tatiana [17]

A sphere with radius $r$ has surface area $4\pi r^2$ . Divide the radius by 6 and you get a surface area of $4\pi\left(\dfrac r6\right)^2=\dfrac4{36}\pi r^2$ , so that the final surface area is divided by 36.
