Peter's account is 910-40x, and Marla's account is 470-2x. This is a system, so you must find the number that makes both equations end up with the same number. Basically trial and error. Here is what I did:
Let's try the number 10. 910-400=510 and 470-20=450. I need a higher number.
Let's try 13 next. 910-520=390 and 470-26=444. Now the number has to be lower.
Let's try 12. 910-480=430 and 470-24=446. Close, and a little lower.
11.5 is too low, and 11.7 is too high. 11.6 has Equation 1 at 446 and Equation 2 at 446.8. Very close!
It is somewhere around 11.6. I hope that this can give you a start in figuring it out, because I don't believe in giving the complete answer, because then you do not learn anything from it.
Answer:
26 degrees Celcius
Step-by-step explanation:
The minimum temperature is -11
The maximum temperature is 15
to get from -11 to 0: add 11
to get from 0 to 15: add 15
11+15 = 26
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The fractions above are known as mixed numbers (that is, fractions that contain the combination of a whole number and proper fraction). The mixed numbers can equally be renamed as improper fractions. However, renaming can only occur the the mixed numbers are being transformed as below:
The transformation occur through a simple approach thus: for the first mixed number; 2 1/3 = 2 multiplied by 3 plus 1 divide by 3 equals 7/3. Similarly, mixed number 1 3/4 is transformed by this: 1 multiplied by 4 plus 3 divide by 4 equals 7/4.
Simplifying further to arrive at final result implies,
Take the LCM of the denominators (4 × 3 =12) and simplify thus:
