Answer: 49.7^{\circ}F

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The temperature on the ground is 56.9^{\circ}F

temperature drop observed is 1.2^{\circ}F\ \text{per 1000 ft}

The height of the plane is  6000\ ft

The total increase in height per 1000\ ft is 6 units

Temperature drop is

\Rightarrow 1.2\times 6=7.2^{\circ}F

The temperature at that altitude is

\Rightarrow 56.9-7.2=49.7^{\circ}F

What is the answer to 1.1x + 1.2x - 5.4 = -10
lord [1]
1.1x+1.2x-5.4=-10

11/10x+12/10x-54/10=10

11x/2.5+2^2-1*3/5x-3^3/5=-10

(11x)+2(2*3x)+2(-3^3)/2*5=-10

11x+2(6x)+2(-27)/2*5=-10

11x+2*6x-2*27/2*5=-10

11x+12x-54/2*5=-10

23x-54/2*5=-10

23x-54=-100

23x=-46

23x/23=-46/23

x=-2*23/23

x=-2

Sarah walks to school, 1.5 miles in 30 minutes. what is the snswer to this
nevsk [136]

Answer: 3 mi/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have to find the speed V at which Sarah walks to school, knowing the distance d she has walked and the time t she expends.

So, in this case we can use the following equation:

V=\frac{d}{t}

Where:

d=1.5 mi

t=30 min \frac{1 h}{60 min}=0.5 h

Solving:

V=\frac{1.5 mi}{0.5 h}

V=3 mi/h This is Sarah's speed
