The tempature was very cold,tgen it doubled,then it dropped 10 degrees,and then it increased by 40 degrees.The tempature is now
ycow [4]

Answer

The initial temperature was T = -7 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the initial temperature be T.

- The tempature was very cold

Temperarure = T

- Then it doubled

Temperature = 2T

- Then it dropped 10 degrees

Temperature = 2T - 10

- And then it increased by 40 degrees.

Temperature = 2T - 10 + 40 = 2T + 30

The tempature is now 16 degrees

Temperature = 16 degrees

2T + 30 = 16

2T = -14

T = -7 degrees

Hope this Helps!!!

Given: 1; -5; -13 ; -23 ; ...<br><br> Derive a formula for the nth term in the pattern.
mylen [45]

Answer:

  f(n) = -n^2 -3n +5

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the formula is ...

  f(n) = an^2 +bn +c

Then we have ...

  f(1) = 1 = a(1^2) +b(1) +c

  f(2) = -5 = a(2^2) +b(2) +c

  f(3) = -13 = a(3^2) +b(3) +c

__

Here's a way to solve these equations.

Subtract the first equation from the second:

  -6 = 3a +b . . . . . 4th equation

Subtract the second equation from the third:

  -8 = 5a +b . . . . . 5th equation

Subtract the fourth equation from the fifth:

  -2 = 2a

  a = -1

Then substituting into the 4th equation to find b, we have ...

  -6 = 3(-1) +b

  -3 = b

and ...

  1 = -1 +(-3) +c . . . . . substituting "a" and "b" into the first equation

  5 = c

The formula is ...

  f(n) = -n^2 -3n +5

(30 POINTS AND BRAINLIEST) Show all work to solve 3x^2 + 5x − 2 = 0.
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:    (x + 2)(3x - 1) = 0

x1 = -2

x2 = 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

                                           3x² + 5x − 2 = 0

Multiply 3 x -2 = -6

Find two numbers that added = +5 and multiply -6

These numbers are +6  and -1

Then:

                                           3x² + 6x -1x − 2 = 0

Factorize                           3x (x + 2) - 1(x + 2) = 0

Factorize again                (x + 2)(3x - 1) = 0

Finally

                         x + 2 = 0               3x - 1 = 0

                         x = -2                     x = 1/3

.. pls help me....!!!!! Determine whether the point (-2,4) satisfy y&lt;3x+5,y=3x+5 or y &gt;3x+5..​
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

y > 3\cdot x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A(x,y) = (-2,4) and y = 3\cdot x + 5. Now we evaluate the given function at x = -2:

y = 3\cdot x + 5 (1)

y = 3\cdot (-2)+5

y = -6 +5

y = -1

Which means that y is less than the y-component of A. Therefore, the right answer is y > 3\cdot x + 5.
