Answer:

It was 26.5 degrees colder at midnight than at 2:00 pm

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that:

At 2:pm, it was 4 degrees.

The temperature dropped 2.5 degrees per hour until 9:00 pm.

From 2pm to 9pm, there are 7 hours. 2.5 per hour, it was 4 degrees at 2 pm.

So at 9 pm the temperature is:

4 - 2.5*7 = -13.5

The temperature dropped another 9 degrees by midnight.

At midnight, the temperature is -13.5 - 9 = -22.5 degrees

How much colder was it at midnight than at 2:00 pm?

2pm: 4 degrees

Midnight: -22.5 degrees

How much coldren

-22.5 - 4 = -26.5

It was 26.5 degrees colder at midnight than at 2:00 pm

Answer:

B. 26.5

Answer:

13 miles is the greatest whole number of miles she can go.

Step-by-step explanation:

$5 for 2 miles

34/5 = 6 remainder 4

that is 12 miles. But since she still has 4 dollars left, she can go another mile. so, 12 +1 = 13

What is the distance between the building B (4, 6) and the station K (–6, –2)? Use a calculator to round to the nearest tenth.
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>12.8 units</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points can be found by using the formula

d =  \sqrt{ ({x1 - x2})^{2} +  ({y1 - y2})^{2}  }  \\

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

B (4, 6) and K (–6, –2)

The distance is

|BK|  =  \sqrt{ ({4 + 6})^{2}  +  ({6 + 2})^{2} }  \\  =  \sqrt{ {10}^{2} +  {8}^{2}  }  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \\  =  \sqrt{100 + 64}  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \\  =  \sqrt{164}  \\  = 2 \sqrt{41}  \\  = 12.80

We have the final answer as

<h3>12.8 to the nearest tenth</h3>

Hope this helps you

Llana [10]
Q = 3s - 9/6
q = 3(s - 3)/6
q = s - 3/2

6q + 9 = 3s
6q + 9/3 = s
3(2q + 3)/3 = s
2q + 3 = s
s = 2q + 3
