Answer:

The equation is;

T = 87.4 ± 1.5

Maximum value of T = 88.9 °F

Minimum value of T = 85.9 °F

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the stated temperature as 87.4 °F

Now, we are told that this stated temperature differs from the actual temperature by no more than 1.5 degrees Fahrenheit.

Thus, if the actual temperature is T, it means that T should either be 1.5 more than 87.4 or 1.5 less than 87.4.

Thus the equation is;

87.4 ± 1.5 = T

So maximum value of T = 87.4 + 1.5 = 88.9 °F

While minimum value of T = 87.4 - 1.5 = 85.9 °F

The lengths and widths of two rectangles are proportional. One
Rashid [163]

The width of the rectangle would be 6 times the first rectangle and the length would be 8 times the first rectangle.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Two rectangles are proportional.

Length and width of 1 rectangle = 6 : 8

Dimensions of the other rectangle = ?

Let length and width of the other rectangle be x : y

According to the question:

\frac{6}{8} :\frac{x}{y}

\frac{6}{8} X \frac{y}{x}

So, the width of the rectangle would be 6 times the first rectangle and the length would be 8 times the first rectangle.

Rewrite the expression in exponential form
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

x^{\frac{1}{4} }

Step-by-step explanation:

A root can be converted to a power by taking the base of the root (in this case 4) and making it 1 over that number, so in this case \frac{1}{4}

If it were the fifth root you would make it to the 1 over 5 power.
