Answer:

5:05 PM

Step-by-step explanation:

Each 30 minutes, we have a change of -0.75

So in an hour , we will have a change of -0.75 * 2 = -1.5

since -2.1 is greater than -4.6, this indicates that it was a time before 6:45 PM

so, let us find the temperature drop

That would be;

-2.1-(-4.6) = -2.1 + 4.6 = 2.5

So let us find the number of half hours

That would be;

2.5/0.75 = 3 1/3 half hours

3 half hours is 90 minutes

1/3 half hour is 1/3 * 30 = 10 minutes

Total number of minutes is;

90 + 10 = 100 minutes

So let us count 100 minutes before 6:45 PM

120 minutes before would be;

4:45 PM

but we want 100 minutes, so we have to add 20 minutes

That would be;

4:45 PM + 20 minutes

= 4:65 which is 5 : 05 PM

Calculate the midpoint of the line segments joining the two points (-8, -7) and (4,9)
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the midpoint, you need to plug in the values of x and y into the midpoint formula.

M ( x1 + x2/2 , y1 + y2/2)

M [ -8 + 4/2 , -7 + 9/2]

M ( -2, 1)

Answer:

8/17

Step-by-step explanation:

The sine of an angle is defined as the opposite side to the reference angle divided by the hypotenuse.

The side opposite the angle is always the side not connected to the reference angle. In this case the opposite side = ZY

The hypotenuse = XZ

Sin(X) = ZY/XZ

Sin(X) = 1634 = 8 / 17
