Answer:

-4.8 degrees Fahrenheit

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t be temperature.

t at 3:00PM: 5.2 degrees.

Every hour, the temperature falls by 2.5 degrees per hour for the next four hours. Let's multiply 2.5 by 4 to find out the total temperature drop in four hours.

(2.5)(4)=10

In four hours, the temperature dropped 10 degrees. Since it is getting colder, let's subtract this from the original 5.5 degrees to get the temperature at 7:00PM.

5.2-10=-4.8

The temperature at 7:00PM was -4.8 degrees Fahrenheit.

2 1/2 x 4 = 10
5 1/5 - 10 = - 4 4/5
The temperature at 7 p.m. was -4 4/5 degrees Fahrenheit.

Humans have a normal body temperature of 98.6 F A temperature, x, that differs from normal by at least 2°F is considered unhealt
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer: 98.6 - x ≥ 2 or x - 98.6 ≥ 2  

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the normal temperature = 98.6° F

Also, the temperature that differs from normal by at least 2°F is considered unhealthy.

If the temperature is x degree F,

Then, we have two conditions,

Condition 1 : x > 98.6,

The difference between 98.6 and x = x - 98.6

Then the inequality be,

x - 98.6 ≥ 2

Condition 2 : x < 98.6

The difference between 98.6 and x = 98.6 - x

Then the inequality be,

98.6 - x ≥ 2

Help plssss I’m trying to finish this diagnostics test
Allushta [10]

Answer: 5 Seconds

Step-by-step explanation: Given the equation of the height expressed ad;

h(t) = - 16t^2 + initial height

Given that initial height = 400feet

h(t) = - 16t^2 + 400

The waste will hit the ground at when h(t) = 0

substitute

0 =  - 16t^2 + 400

16t^2 = 400

t² = 400/16

t² = 25

t = √25

t = 5secs
