Describe in words how the temperature changes with time, where h is hours since midnight. T=50-2h​

Mathematics

Westkost [7]3 years ago

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.

With both taps open, Blake can fill his kitchen sink in 6 minutes. When full, the sink drains in 10 minutes. How long will it ta
exis [7]

The time to fill the sink if Blake forgets to put in the stopper would be 15 mins.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The kitchen sink can fill in: 6 mins

The sink can drain in: 10 mins

We have to find the time to fill the sink if Blake forgets to put in the stopper. For that,

Lets say, the full tank = 1

Filling rate = \frac{x}{6}

Drainage rate = \frac{x}{10}

Hence, the time to fill the tank would be:

\frac{x}{6}  - \frac{x}{10}  = 1

30.\frac{x}{6}  - 30.\frac{x}{10}  = 30.1  (Multiply by LCM)

5x - 3x = 30

2x = 30

x = 15

Hence, the time to fill the sink if Blake forgets to put in the stopper would be 15 mins.

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (8,-8) and has a slope of -1
marishachu [46]

Answer:

y= (-1)*x

Step-by-step explanation:

lets assume that the line equation is

y=m*x +b

where m is the slope and b the independent variable that intercept Y axis.

then replacing the value of m:

y=(-1)*x + b

after that we have to look for the value of b. Its obtained replaicing the given point (8,-8):

-8 = (-1)*(8) +b

-8 = -8 + b

0 = b

Therefore the equation of the line is:

y= (-1)*x
