Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the temperature at noon

dropping means we subtract

The temperature at 9 pm was -4. That goes on the right hand side of the equals

x-10 = -4

Add 10 to each side

x-10+10 = -4+10

x = 6

The temperature at noon was 6 F

1) first find the ratio of gallons to minutes which is 150/6=25, so 25 gallons a minute.now divide 20,000 by 25=800 and that is the answer
2)so, we found the proportion 25:1 or 25 gallons a minute
3)we do the same thing we did for find, find the ratio per square feet 700/2=350, next we divide 1960 by 350. that should get you 5.6

Hope I helped! :)

Segment addition with variables

<em>x equals 22</em>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

____________________________________________

The Segment Postulate states the following:

<em>Given two end points A and B, a third point C lines on the segment AB if and only if the distances between the points satisfy the equation:</em>

$\overline{AB}=\overline{AC}+\overline{CB}$

____________________________________________

From the figure:

$\overline{AC}=8+x \\ \\ \overline{CB}=10 \\ \\ \overline{AB}=40$

Our goal is to find x:

$\overline{AB}=\overline{AC}+\overline{CB} \\ \\ Substituting \ values: \\ \\ 40=(8+x)+10 \\ \\ 18+x=40 \\ \\ Subtracting \ 18 \ from \ both \ sides: \\ \\ 18-18+x=40-18 \\ \\ \boxed{x=22}$
