For this case, the first thing we must do is define variables.
We have then:
x: altitude of the plane in feet
y: final temperature
The equation modeling the problem for this case is given by:
Thus, evaluating the function for x = 11,000 ft. Height we have:
Answer:
the temperature at an altitude of 11,000 ft is 47.6 F
Answer:
3,520 yds in 2 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
5,280:1 ; 1 mile an hour is 5,280 feet in an hour
10,560:2 ; 2 miles in 2 hours is 5,280+5,280 (10,560) feet in 2 hours
3 ft = 1 yd ; every 3 feet is a yard, so divide 10,560 by 3
10,560/3 = 3520 yds ; Jorge can walk 3,520 yds in 2 hours
The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.
DH = HF and GH = HE
x + 5 = 2y
3x - 1 = 5y + 4
Solve the first equation for x.
x = 2y - 5
Now substitute 2y - 5 for x in the second equation.
3(2y - 5) - 1 = 5y + 4
6y - 15 - 1 = 5y + 4
6y - 16 = 5y + 4
y = 20
Now substitute 20 for y in the first original equation.
x + 5 = 2y
x + 5 = 2(20)
x + 5 = 40
x = 35
Answer: x = 35 and y = 20
The new area will be 320 in²
<em><u>Explanation</u></em>
Lin has a drawing with an area of 20 in² and she increases all sides by a scale factor of 4.
<u>The general rule</u> we need to use here.......
"<em>If the lengths of the sides in a shape are all increased by a scale factor of
, then the area will be increased by a scale factor of
"</em>
Here the sides are increased by a scale factor of 4. So, the area will be increased by a scale factor of 
Thus, the new area will be:
