(a) A tram moved downward 72 meters in 8 seconds at a constant rate. What was the change in
1 answer:
Answer:
a) 9 meters.
b) The total change in temperature was of 288ºC
Step-by-step explanation:
Both these questions can be solved using rules of three.
a) 72 meters in 8 seconds. How many meters it changes each second(in 1 second)?
8s - 72m
1s - x m
9 meters.
b) In 1 hour, heated by 6ºC. How much in total during 48 hours?
1h - 6ºC
48h - xºC
x = 48*6
The total change in temperature was of 288ºC

Factor 16 and see the - factor pairs and add them, see which add to -12
-1-16=-17 nope
-2-8=-10 nope
-4-4=-8
hmm
we will solve with math
xy=16
x+y=-12
minus x both sides
y=-12-x
sub for y in other equation
x(-12-x)=16
-12x-x^2=16
add 12x+x^2 both sides
0=x^2+12x+16
use quadratic formula
if you have
ax^2+bx+c=0
x=
0=x^2+12x+16
a=1
b=12
