The linear equation (y = mx + b) for this particular line is d = 0.6t
it's the same as finding the equation for any line except they use d instead of y and t instead of x. The slope m is 0.6 and intercept is zero.
Answer: You need to wait at least 6.4 hours to eat the ribs.
t ≥ 6.4 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
The initial temperature is 40°F, and it increases by 25% each hour.
This means that during hour 0 the temperature is 40° F
after the first hour, at h = 1h we have an increase of 25%, this means that the new temperature is:
T = 40° F + 0.25*40° F = 1.25*40° F
after another hour we have another increase of 25%, the temperature now is:
T = (1.25*40° F) + 0.25*(1.25*40° F) = (40° F)*(1.25)^2
Now, we can model the temperature at the hour h as:
T(h) = (40°f)*1.25^h
now we want to find the number of hours needed to get the temperature equal to 165°F. which is the minimum temperature that the ribs need to reach in order to be safe to eaten.
So we have:
(40°f)*1.25^h = 165° F
1.25^h = 165/40 = 4.125
h = ln(4.125)/ln(1.25) = 6.4 hours.
then the inequality is:
t ≥ 6.4 hours.
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
The basic equation to solve this would be D = RT, which is
D is Distance
R is Rate (speed)
T is time
To find total distance D, we can find individual distances for two legs of the whole.
First Leg:
R = 8
T = a
D = 8a
Second Leg:
R = 7.5
T = b
D = 7.5b
Total distance D is:
D = 8a + 7.5b
Moreover, we know student runs 45 minutes in total hence a + b = 45 or we can say a = 45 - b, so we can replace this in the equation found:
D = 8a + 7.5b
D = 8(45 - b) + 7.5b
Answer choice D is right.
Answer:
x=8
Step-by-step explanation:
30-5x-10
-5x+30-10
-5x+40
-5x= -40
divide both sides by -5
-5x/-5= -40/-5
x=8
