Answer:

The temperature in 4 hours = -2 °F

Thus, option (D) is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the slope-intercept form of the line equation is

y = mx+b

where m is the rate of change or slope and b is the y-intercept

  • Let 'y' be the temperature
  • Let 'x' be the time of the temperature in the hour

Given that the current temperature outside = 10°F.

Thus, the y-intercept = b = 10°F

Given that as the day went on, It will fall at a constant rate of 3°F per hour.

Thus, the slope or rate of change = -3°F

(The rate of change or slope is -3 because the temperature is reducing)

Thus, the rate of change = slope = m = -3

Thus, substituting m = -3 and b = 10 in the equation

y = mx+b

y = -3x + 10

Now, substituting x = 4 to determine the temperature after 4 hours.

y = -3(4) + 10

y = -12 + 12

y = -2 °F

Therefore, the temperature in 4 hours = -2 °F

Thus, option (D) is true.

Find three consecutive even integers. Such that 7 times of first integer is 4 more than the sum of second and third integers
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

1st even integer = 2

2nd even integer = 4

3rd even integer  = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the consecutive even integers be:

1st = 2(x)

2nd= 2(x +1) = 2x + 2

3rd = 2(x + 2) = 2x + 4

According to Given conditions:

7(2x) = 4 +  2x +2 + 2x + 4

By Simplifying:

14x = 10 + 4x

Subtracting 4x from both sides

14x - 4x = 10 + 4x -4x

10x = 10

Dividing both sides by 10 we get:

x = 1

Now putting value of x in supposed integers:

1st even integer = 2(1) = 2

2nd even integer = 2(1)+2 = 4

3rd even integer = 2(1) + 4 = 6

I hope it will help you!

Tell wether the ordered pair (5,-3) is a solution of the system -3x+2y=-21;-x-y=-2
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

(5,-3) is a solution of -x-y=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

You just plug in the numbers in the equation

x=5 y=-3

-5(5)+2(-3)=-25-6 which doesn't equal -21

-5-(-3)=-5+3=-2

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

i think both are false.

\lim_{x \to - \infty} f(x)= \lim_{x \to- \infty} (4x^8-3x^7+2x-11)\\  = \lim_{x \to - \infty} x^8(4-\frac{3}{x}+\frac{2 }{x^7}  -\frac{11}{x^8})\\=-\infty(4-0+0-0)\\=-4 \infty\\=- \infty\\similarly other
