Answer:
A) In 4 hours the tempature would both be the same
B) The tempature then would be 3 degreees Fahrenheit
Step-by-step explanation:
SO for the first step just make a list
In my format
x (hour): Coldspit and Frostberg in temperature
1st hour: -4.5 and 15
2nd hour: -2 and 11
3rd hour: 0.5 and 7
4th hour: 3 and 3
There's a special case of the quadratic formula called the Shakespeare Quadratic Formula (2b or -2b) that applies when the linear coefficient is even.
If you're planning on solving a lot of quadratic equations quickly, it's good to know.
Here we have
so
3x - 3 = 2x
Add 3 on both sides
3x - 3 + 3 = 2x + 3
3x = 2x + 3
Subtract 2x on both sides
3x - 2x = 2x + 3 - 2x
3x - 2x = 3
x = 3
So, your final answer is x = 3.
