<h3>Answer:  C) n - 10</h3>

============================================

Explanation:

Consider an example of saying "10 less than 50" would mean we compute 50-10 = 40

Another example would be "10 less than 78" so we say 78-10 = 68

In general, we would use algebra to go from "10 less than a number" to "a number - 10" to n - 10

Whatever n is, we subtract 10 from it to get that expression.

From there, we replace n with various numbers. Eg: replace n with 50

n-10 = 50-10 = 40

-----------------

Be careful not to mix up "10 less than a number" with "10 <u>is</u> less than a number". The "is" being the difference. This single word will change what the symbol interpretation will be.

"10 is less than a number" translates to 10 < n

One day you bike for 30 miles 10 cool down at a rate of 0.25 miles/minute. The total distance you bike is 35 miles. How many min
tatyana61 [14]
To determine the length of time it would took for the biker to cool down, we need the rate that would relate the distance he traveled to cool down per units of time. For this problem, the rate is given as 0.25 miles per minute. So, we simply divide the total distance he traveled with this rate. We calculate as follows:

time to cool down = distance / rate
time to cool down = 35 miles / 0.25 miles / minute
time to cool down = 140 minutes or 2 hrs and 20 minutes

Therefore, the biker would need to cool down for about 2 hrs and 20 minutes if he traveled for 35 miles.

Classify the following is rational or irrational(a) √45​
marshall27 [118]

The numbers that can be expressed in the form of a fraction are called rational numbers. While that numbers that cannot be expressed in the form of a fraction are called irrational numbers.

\sqrt{45} =\sqrt{3 \times 3 \times 5}

\sqrt{45} =3\sqrt{5}

3\sqrt{5} is an irrational number, it cannot be expressed in the form of a fraction.
