<h3>Answer is -15</h3>

We read this out as "negative 15" or you could write "negative fifteen".

The negative indicates the temperature went down. It doesn't necessarily mean that the final temperature is -15 degrees.

For example, if it starts being 50 degrees F, and drops by 15 degrees, then 50+(-15) = 50-15 = 35 degrees is the temperature after that drop. It might help to use a vertical number line.

Answer:

$\frac{x}{-8} = 7$

-12x = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the type of problem that you just have to do a bunch of times until you get it right -- I don't think there's anything I can tell you that'll help you immediately. Ask for your teacher for more exercises of this sort or look it up online.

Good luck!

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

16 hours and 20 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please consider the complete question.

Rita's family is moving to Grand Junction to Dallas, which is 980 miles. The moving van averages 60 miles each hour. About how many hours does the van take to reach Dallas?

To find the time taken by van to reach Dallas, we will divide total distance by speed.

$\text{Time}=\frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Speed}}$

$\text{Time taken to reach Dallas}=\frac{980\text{ Miles}}{60\frac{\text{ Miles}}{\text{Hour}}}$

$\text{Time taken to reach Dallas}=\frac{980\text{ Miles}}{60}\times \frac{\text{ Hour}}{\text{Miles}}$

$\text{Time taken to reach Dallas}=\frac{98}{6}\text{ Hour}$

$\text{Time taken to reach Dallas}=16.3333\text{ Hour}$

Let us convert 0.3333 hours into minutes by multiplying 0.3333 by 60.

$0.3333\times 60=19.998\approx 20$

Therefore, it will take 16 hours and 20 minutes for the van to reach Dallas.

Answer:

Sample answer: The median of the means for Grade 8 is greater than for Grade 12. However, there is less variation in the data for Grade 12 since the length of the box for Grade 12 is shorter than the one for Grade 8.
