Answer:

0.25 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for a linear function is given by:

y = mx + b,

where y and x are variables, m is the rate of change of y with respect to x and b is the initial value of y (value of y when x = 0).

Let x represent the number of hours after 1:00 P.M and let y represent the temperature in degree Fahrenheit.

Let us assume that initial the temperature is 0°F. The temperature changes -4 degrees Fahrenheit per hour. From the equation of a linear function y = mx + b:

m = -4 degrees Fahrenheit per hour, b = 0. Hence:

y = -4x

The time taken to reach -1°F is gotten by substituting y = -1 and finding x:

y = -4x

substituting:

-1 = -4x

x = -1 / -4

x = 0.25 hours

0.25 hours = 0.25 hours * 60 minute / 1 hour = 15 minute

Therefore at 1:15 P.M, the temperature is -1°F

A rectangle has a height of 7x^27x 2 7, x, squared and a width of 3x^2+8x+73x 2 +8x+73, x, squared, plus, 8, x, plus, 7. Express
abruzzese [7]

The expression 21x⁴ + 56x³ + 49x² represents the area of the entire rectangle.

<h3>What is the area of the rectangle?</h3>

It is defined as the area occupied by the rectangle in two-dimensional planner geometry.

The area of a rectangle can be calculated using the following formula:

Rectangle area = length x width

The question is incomplete.

The complete question is in the picture, please refer to the attached picture.

The area of the rectangle = length x width

= (3x² + 8x + 7)(7x²)

\rm =7x^2\cdot \:3x^2+7x^2\cdot \:8x+7x^2\cdot \:7

= 21x⁴ + 56x³ + 49x²

Thus, the expression 21x⁴ + 56x³ + 49x² represents the area of the entire rectangle.

HELP ASAP PLEASE!!! AND PLEASE SHOW WORK 1. 20% OF ____= 40 2. 30% OF ____=90
lesya692 [45]

Answer: 1. 200, 2. 300

Step-by-step explanation:

40 * 10/2 = 400/2 = 200

or this way:

40 = 20%

40/2 = 20

20 = 10%

20 * 10 = 200

——————————————

90 * 10/3 = 900/3 = 300

or this way:

90 = 30%

90/3 = 30

30 = 10%

30 * 10 = 300

X^2-5x=-4 . I need to find the zeroes
GrogVix [38]
The zeros of a quadratic equation are equal to the x-intercepts of its graph. In other words, you must find the x-value that causes the expression to equal zero. Start by adding 4 to both sides of the equation:

X² - 5x + 4 = 0

Factor the equation:

(x - 1)(x - 4) = 0

Now calculate each piece separately, starting with the first one:

x - 1 = 0

Add 1 to both sides of the equation:

x = 1

We have proven that x = 1. Now calculate the second piece:

x - 4 = 0

Add 4 to both sides of the equation:

x = 4

We have proven that x = 4. Consequently, we have proven that (x = 1) and (x = 4) are the two zeros of this quadratic equation.

I hope this helps!

The weight of a object on the moon,m,is about 1/6 of the objects weight on Earth.Which equation represents the approximate weigh
Free_Kalibri [48]
If the weight of the object on Earth is presented as e and it is stated in this item that the weight of the object in the mass is only 1/6 of it then, the mass of the object in the moon is e/6. Thus, the answer is letter B. m = e/6.
