F<span>or every 1,000 feet you go up in elevation</span>, <span>the temperature decreases by about 3.3°F</span>

 

Given:

Temperature at the bottom of the mountain is 74°F

The top of the mountain is 5500 feet above you

 

Change (reduction) in temperature is 3.3 X 5500 / 1000

= 18.15°F

 

Temperature at the top of the mountain is 74°F – 18.15°F

= 55.85°F

I don’t know how to solve this
V125BC [204]

Assuming that both triangles are an exact copy of one another, it is safe to assume that 3y-7 is equal to 41. Set up an equation

3y-7=41

Add 7 to both sides

3y=48

Divide both sides by 3

y=16


Now to find PN.

Based on what we know, we can assume that MP = PN. Let's make some equations!

MP = 17x-8     PN = 11x+4

17x-8 = 11x+4

Subtract 11x from both sides

6x-8 = 4

Add 8 to both sides

6x = 12

Divide by 2

x=2

Substitute 2 in for x in the equation for PN

11(2)+4

Multiply 11 by 2

22+4 = 26

PN = 26

If f(x) = –5x – 4 and g(x) = –3x – 2, find (f – g)(x).
erica [24]

Answer:

  C.  (f – g)(x) = –2x – 2

Step-by-step explanation:

(f – g)(x) = f(x) – g(x)

  = (–5x – 4) – (–3x – 2)

  = –2x – 2

A manufacturer of matches randomly and independently puts 23 matches in each box of matches produced. The company knows that one
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

0.9855 or 98.55%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of each individual match being flawed is p = 0.008. The probability that a matchbox will have one or fewer matches with a flaw is the same as the probability of a matchbox having exactly one or exactly zero matches with a flaw:

P(X\leq 1)=P(X=0)+P(X=1)\\P(X\leq 1)=(1-p)^{23}+23*(1-p)^{23-1}*p\\P(X\leq 1)=(1-0.008)^{23}+23*(1-0.008)^{23-1}*0.008\\P(X\leq 1)=0.8313+0.1542\\P(X\leq 1)=0.9855

The probability  that a matchbox will have one or fewer matches with a flaw is 0.9855 or 98.55%.
