Do cross multiplication

6 = x
18 12

Now cross multiply

(6)(12) = (18)(x)

72 = 18x

Divide both sides by 18

72 = 18x
18 18

4 = x

So tMei can complete 4 problems in 12 minutes.

Scientists modeled the intensity of the sun, I, as a function of the number of hours since 6:00 a.m., h, using the

MAVERICK [17]

The functions are illustrations of composite functions.

The soil temperature at 2:00pm is 67

The given parameters are:

$\mathbf{I(h) =\frac{12h - h^2}{36}}$ ---- the function for sun intensity

$\mathbf{T(I) =\sqrt{5000I}}$ -- the function for temperature

At 2:00pm, the value of h (number of hours) is:

$\mathbf{h = 2:00pm - 6:00am}$

$\mathbf{h = 8}$

Substitute 8 for h in $\mathbf{I(h) =\frac{12h - h^2}{36}}$ , to calculate the sun intensity

$\mathbf{I(8) =\frac{12 \times 8 - 8^2}{36}}$

$\mathbf{I(8) =\frac{32}{36}}$

$\mathbf{I(8) =\frac{8}{9}}$

Substitute 8/9 for I in $\mathbf{T(I) =\sqrt{5000I}}$ , to calculate the temperature of the soil

$\mathbf{T(8/9) =\sqrt{5000 \times 8/9}}$

$\mathbf{T(8/9) =\sqrt{4444.44}}$

$\mathbf{T(8/9) =66.67}$

Approximate

$\mathbf{T(8/9) =67}$

Hence, the soil temperature at 2:00pm is 67
