If the temperature was 3 degrees Fahrenheit at Midnight, and it dropped 7 degrees during the next hour, then the temperature at 1 A.M. would be -4 degrees Fahrenheit. This is true because 3 - 7 = -4.
So, the answer to this question is that the temperature was -4 degrees Fahrenheit at 1 A.M.
Answer:
Total cost of the trip = 243 + 72x
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost of airfare = $243
Amount spent per day = $72
Which expression can he use to help him find the cost of the trip?
Let
x = number of days spent in Alaska
Total cost of the trip = Cost of airfare + (Amount spent per day * number of days spent in Alaska)
= 243 + (72 * x)
= 243 + 72x
Total cost of the trip = 243 + 72x
If he spent 4 days on the trip
Total cost of the trip = 243 + 72x
= 243 + 72(4)
= 243 + 288
= $531
So each of these statements are talking about the square footage of land per person. Let's go and find it!
First off, let's find the number in each building of the original complex:
280 people / 4 buildings
Each building has an equal number of residents. So just divide:
280/4 = 70.
So 70 residents per building
Now consider the fact that once a new building is built, another 70 people will move in.
280 + 70= 350
350 people total.
Then lets look at the plot of land
Originally, there are 200,000 square feet of land for the 4 buildings. Then after the expansion, the plot of land will be:
200,000 + 200*200
= 200,400
Go back to the question. What's the effect of the expansion in terms of square feet of land per person?
Divide!
200,400 / 350
Approximately = 572.57 square feet
Then since it's being compared to the amount each resident had before the expansion, do the same thing with the corresponding numbers:
200,000 / 280
Approximately = 714.29
So how much will each person's land decrease?
714.29 - 572.57 approximately = 141.72 square feet.
The answer is the first choice!
