Answer:
unit rate is similar to speed / velocity:
[<em>unit</em><em> </em><em>rate</em><em> </em><em>must</em><em> </em><em>have</em><em> </em><em>units</em><em> </em><em>including</em><em> </em><em>per</em><em> </em><em><</em><em>time</em><em>></em><em> </em>]
1/8 x 5 = 5/8
5/8 of the passengers were adults :)
Rx - sx + y = b
WHEN SOLVING FOR X :
rx - sx + y = b
We must get x onto it's own side, so subtract y from both side.s
rx - sx = b - y
Then, factor out x.
x(r - s) = b - y
Then, divide both sides by (r - s).
x(r - s) ÷ (r - s) = b - y ÷ (r - s)
Simplify.
x = b - y / r - s →
WHEN SOLVING FOR Y :
rx - sx + y = b
We need to isolate y, so get rid of everything BUT y on the left side.
Subtract rx from both sides.
-sx + y = b - rx
Then, add sx to both sides.
y = b - rx + sx

Answer: -9°F
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are told that the temperature at 6:00 am was -12 Fahrenheit and that the temperature increased by 1/2 Fahrenheit each hour for 6 hours.
The temperature, in degrees Fahrenheit, at noon would be:
= -12°F + 1/2(6)
= -12°F + 3°F
= -9°F
