Answer:

x = 28 (So it takes 28 hours for the temperature to reach 0°C.)

y = -70 (So the temperature when the experiment begins is −70°C.)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the the x value, you remove the y value or replace it with 0.

0 = 5/2x - 70

Next you move the variable.

70 (2/5) = x           (multiply 70 by 2 to get 140 and divide that by 5)

And now you simplify to get:

28

To find the y value, you remove the x value or replace it with 0.

y =  0 - 70

And now you simplify to get:

-70

x = 28

y = -70

What Is The Estimated Weight Of Three Containers Weighing 1.656 kg each? (Math 5 Quarter 2, Week 5) I Need A Nice And Clear Answ
Annette [7]

Answer:

Estimate = 5.0kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Weight = 1.656kg

Required

Determine the estimated for 3 containers

Since the weight of all containers are the same, we simply multiply the given weight by the number of containers.

i.e.

Estimate = Number\ of\ containers * Weight\ of\ each

Estimate = 3 * 1.656kg

Estimate = 4.968kg

Estimate = 5.0kg --- approximated

<em>So, the estimated weight is 5.0kg</em>
