-4.2 degrees. What you would do is from 8-12 (midnight) is 4 hours. So it dropped -16.8 degrees in those 4 hours so -16.8 / 4 is -4.2 degrees. So it dropped -4.2 degrees every hour but it was also -4.2 degrees at 9:00 p.m.
3 / (1/8) = 3 × (8/1) = 24
There needs to be 24 students on a team.
Gertie 3/4 mile.
Sarah 2/4 mile.
Gertie ran farther by: 3/4 - 2/4 = (3 -2)/4 = 1/4
Gertie ran farther by 1/4 mile.
The wording of your question suggests that there were answer choices. Mind sharing them?
The system <span>y=-2x^2 y=x-2 would be best written as:
</span><span>y=-2x^2
y=x-2 If you subst. x-2 for y in the first equation, you'll get:
x-2 = -2x^2, or 2x^2 + x - 2 = 0.

Let X is the random number Erik thinks of, and Y is the random number Nita thinks of.
Both X and Y are in the range from 0 to 20.
<span>X<=20
Y<=20
If the difference between their two numbers is less than 10, then Erik wins.
The difference between the two numbers can be written X-Y, or Y-X depending on which number (X or Y) is greater. But we do not know that. In order not to get negative value, we calculate absolute value of X-Y, written |X-Y| which will give positive value whether X is greater than Y or not.
If |X-Y|<10 Erik wins.
