4(2a+3) = 8a+ 12
This represents the distribution property because it multiplies everything in the parentheses. 4 X 2a = 8a 4X3=12
Answer:
Initial 18 degrees Celsius
After 20 minutes, 5 degrees Celsius
Step-by-step explanation:
It’s initial temperature can be calculated as at the time when x = 0
When x = 0, the temperature is -6+24 = 18 degrees Celsius
This is because the exponent part equals 1 since anything raised in to the power of zero is one.
After twenty minutes,
T(x) = -6 +24e^-0.038(20)
T(x) = -6 + 11.224 = 5.224
And that is approximately 5 degrees Celsius to the nearest degree
The answer is 15 or 1/4
I hope this helps you
