A school system is reducing the amount of dumpster loads of trash removed each week. In week 5, there were 80 dumpster loads of

waste removed. In week 10, there were 75 dumpster loads removed. Assume that the reduction in the amount of waste each week is linear. Write an equation in function form to show the amount of trash removed each week.

What is the difference between 3/4 and 2/10 ?
Stells [14]

Answer:

11 /20

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1- We can't subtract two fractions with different denominators. So you need to get a common denominator.  

So we multiply 3 by 10, and get 30.

Then we multiply 2 by 4, and get 8.

Next we give both terms new denominators -- 4 × 10 = 40.

So now our fractions look like this:

30 /40 −8/40

Step 2- Since our denominators match, we can subtract the numerators.

30 − 8 = 22

So the answer is:

22 /40

Step 3-

Last of all, we need to simplify the fraction, if possible. Can it be reduced to a simpler fraction? Yes we can!

11 /20 is the answer

For an experiment, the temperature of a liquid must stay above 60°F . The starting temperature of the liquid is 90°F . It is pla
HACTEHA [7]
The answer is <span>The liquid must be in the cooler fewer than 10 minutes.
</span>
Let:
m - the number of minutes the liquid is in the cooler.
a - the starting temperature
The function is:
f(m) = a - 3 * m     (Since the temperature decreases by 3°F each minute m, it has a negative sign)
Let:
m - <span>the number of minutes the liquid is in the cooler.
a - the starting temperature
</span>a = 90<span>°F 
</span>
<span>The temperature of a liquid must stay above 60°F:
f(m) > 60

Thus:
</span>f(m) = a - 3 * m 
f(m) > 60

a - 3 * m > 60
90 - 3m > 60
90 - 60 > 3m
30 > 3 m
30/3 > m
10 > m
Or m < 10. So the correct answer is The liquid must be in the cooler fewer than 10 minutes.

What are the steps to getting the value of x in 4(2x - 11) + 15 = 21 and explanation for each step?
tester [92]

4*(2x - 11) + 15 = 21

8x - 44 +15 = 21

8x = 21 + 44 - 15

8x = 50

x = 50 : 8

x = 6.25 or 25/4
