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

Use the binomial theorem to show that 7^n + 2 is divisible by 3, where n is a positive integer.
masha68 [24]

By the binomial theorem,

7^n=(6+1)^n=6^n+n6^{n-1}+\dbinom n26^{n-2}+\cdots+\dbinom n{n-2}6^2+n6^1+1

Each term containing a factor 6 is divisible by 3, since 3 divides 6. The remaining 1 and 2 sum to 3, which is also divisible by 3.

Can you guys distribute -9n-8-3n=6n-8 and figure out how many solutions it has plz
nydimaria [60]
First combine like terms (-9n-3n=-12n)
Then, subtract 6n on both sides (to get rid of the 6n) = -18n
Then, add 8 to both sides (does not matter) = 0
Finally divide (answer is 0)

Jimmy gets a discount of 35% for a pair of sneakers with an original price of $70. He also gets a discount of 25% on a shirt wit
Tanya [424]
First find the total without using the dicounts. then do 70×.35 which is 35% as a decimal. your answer is the dicounts but that is how much you are taking off. .35×70= 24.5 then you would do 70-24.5=45.5 then do the same for the other amount. add these two amounts together. ( 30×.25=7.5 30-7.5= 22.5) 45.5+22.5= 68 then do your first answer - 68 and that is how much is saved
