A thermometer comes with a guarantee that the stated temperature differs from the actual temperature by no more than 1.5 degrees

Fahrenheit. Write an equation to represent the minimum and maximum actual temperatures when the thermometer states that the temperature is 87.4 degrees Fahrenheit.

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

D = 171 - (61+53) = 171 -124 = 47
E = 171 - 90 = 81
A = 81 - (34+24) = 81 - 58 = 23
B = 61 - 23 = 38
C = 90 - (33+ 38) = 90 - 71 = 19

answer is B.

Answer:

no, there is an infatuate amount of solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

1.2(2x-5)=2/5(2x-15)+1.6x

2.4x -6 = .8x -6 +1.6

Can someone please help me with this, I'm having trouble
dexar [7]
This is another one for my "impossible math question" file. All of the answer choices are wrong. (None applies.)

According to the problem statement, the length you have marked "x" in the diagram is 15 inches. If the side length of one of the pavers is "s", then the Pythagorean theorem tells us
  s² + (2s)² = 15²
  5s² = 225
  s² = 225/5 = 45 . . . . . . the area of one square is 45 in² (not 225 in²)

Then
  s = √45 = 3√5 . . . . . . . the length of one side is not 5√3
so the perimeter is
  p = 4s = 4·3√5 in = 12√5 in ≈ 26.83 in . . . . not 75 inches.

The area of the 6-block L-shaped path is
  total area = 6s² = 6·45 in² = 270 in² . . . . not 450 in²

And the total perimeter is 14 sides, so is
  total perimeter = 14s = 14·3√5 in = 42√5 in . . . . not 60√3 in

In cases like this where the answer key is incorrect, you might try asking your teacher show the class how to work the problem.
