6 0

Answer:

2 - 5x

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer is in the problem:

2 less than = 2 minus a number ( 2- )

five times a number = 5x ( we don't know what number five is being multiplied by, so we put a variable)

Solve the equation 4 1/5+b= 9 3/5
victus00 [196]
4 1/5 + b = 9 3/5

4 1/5 - 4 1/5 + b = 9 3/5 - 4 1/5
(taking the same amount from each side to keep it balanced)

0 + b = 5 2/5
(subtracting 4 1/5 from each side)

b = 5 2/5

A solution is heated from 0°C to 100°C. Between 0°C and 50°C, the rate of temperature increase is 1.5°C/min. Between 50°C and 10
muminat

Answer:

0.6 °C/min

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between rates and movement is ...

time = distance/speed

Here, the "distance" is measured in °C, and the "speed" is the rate of change of temperature.

For the first half of the heating, the time required is ...

(50°C -0°C)/(1.5 °C/min) = 50/(3/2) min = 100/3 min

For the second half of the heating, the time required is ...

(100°C -50°C)/(4/10 °C/min) = 50/(4/10) = 125 min

Then the total time is ...

((100/3) +125) min = (475/3) min

And the average rate of temperature increase is ...

total temperature change / total time

= (100°C -0°C)/(475/3 min) = 300/475 °C/min = 12/19 °C/min ≈ 0.6 °C/min
