69 + 2h = 84 - 3h
2h + 3h = 84 - 69
5h = 15
h = 15/5
h = 3 <=== the temps will be the same in 3 hrs

69 + 2(3) = 69 + 6 = 75
84 - 3(3) = 84 - 9 = 75

and the temps will both be 75 F <==

Answer:

A) Gretchen and her friend have to talk 3 hours before the temperature become equal.

B) The temperature after 3 hours will be 75°F.

Step-by-step explanation:

Current temperature in Florida = 69°F

Rate at which temperature is rising = 2°F per hour

Current temperature in Indiana = 84°F

Rate at which temperature is falling= 3°F per hour

A) Suppose in x hours both places have same temperature:

69^oF +2F^o\times x=84^oF-3^oF\times x

5x=84^oF-69^oF

x = 3 hours

Gretchen and her friend have to talk 3 hours before the temperature become equal.

B) The temperature after 3 hours:

x  = 75°F

69^oF +2F^o\times x=69^oF +2F^o\times 3=75^oF

What is the next value 4d 7g 10j 13
bearhunter [10]
13m 16p

Add three to every number next as well as move up three letters.

For example:
1A is the starting point.
To get from 1A to 4D you add three.

1 + 3 = 4
A to get to D is three letters up.
A b c D

Same thing for 4D to get to 7G.

4 +3 = 7
D to get to G
D e f G

Your answer:
I'm not sure if you wanted me to find the letter of the equation or the actual next part. On your question you have just 13 up there, no letter so if youre trying to find the letter (13m) is your answer.

If you're trying to find the next equation to the puzzle (16p) is your answer.

Hope this helped!:)

At a carnival, 700 tickets were sold for a total
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

The adult tickets are <u>400</u> and the children tickets are <u>300</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

At a carnival, 700 tickets were sold for a total  amount of $5500. An adult ticket cost $10   and a children's ticket cost $5.

Now, to find the  number of adult tickets and the number of  children's tickets sold.

<em>Let the number of adult tickets be </em>x.<em />

<em>And let the number of children tickets be </em>y.<em />

So, the total number of tickets sold:

x+y=700\\\\y=700-x\ \ \ ....(1)

Now, the total amount of tickets:

x(10)+y(5)=5500

Substituting the value of y from equation (1):

x(10)+(700-x)(5)=5500\\\\10x+3500-5x=5500\\\\5x+3500=5500

<em>Subtracting both sides by 3500 we get:</em>

<em />5x=2000<em />

<em>Dividing boths sides by 5 we get:</em>

x=400.<u />

<u>The number of adult tickets = 400.</u>

Now, substituting the value of x in equation (1) we get:

y=700-x\\\\y=700-400\\\\y=300.

<u>The number of children tickets = 300.</u>

Therefore, the adult tickets are 400 and the children tickets are 300.

What is the converse of the following statement? If a number is odd, it is not divisible by two.
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Converse in discrete mathematics is switching the hypothesis and conclusion of a conditional statement.

So the correct answer will be that If a number is not divisible by two, then it is an odd number. Which is option D.

The math converse of a statement switches the if and then, resulting in a statement that may or may not be true so we have no guarantee that the preposition is true or not.
