Initial temperature of the liquid = 0 degrees.

Rate of changes of liquid temperature = -0.2 per minute.

Rate of change also represents slope of a linear function.

We know, slope-intercept form of a linear equation

y=mx+b, where m is the slope (rate of change) and b is y-intercept(initial temprature).

With respect to given problem, y represents temperature of a liquid after x number of minutes.

According to given problem, slope(rate of change) = -0.2 per minute and y-intercept(initial temprature)=0.

Plugging values of m and b in the above slope-intercept form of a linear equation.We get,

y=-0.2x+0

or y=-0.2x.

Final temprature is given -14.6 degrees and we need to find time when temprature reach -14.6 degrees.

As y represents temperature of a liquid , we need to plug y=-14.6 in above equation.

We get,

-14.6=-0.2x.

Dividing both sides by -0.2.

-14.6/-0.2=-0.2x/-0.2

x=73.

We got 73 minutes.

73 minutes can be convert in hours.

We have 60 minutes in an hour.

Therefore, 73 = 60+13.

So, 1 hour and 13 minutes will it for the liquid to reach -14.6 degrees.

In minutes answer is 73 minutes.

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

38

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of f(6), we substitute the value 6 where x is into the function. You would get:

7(6) - 4

42 - 4

f(6) = 38

What happens to energy during a change of state? Why is it a physical change?​
Flura [38]

Answer & Explanation:

Energy is heat. For example, if you boil a cup of water it has more energy than   a cup at room temperature. It is considered a physical change because its properties do not change only the state of matter. On the other hand, if wood burns then that is a chemical change because it changes its chemical properties. Please rank as Brainliest if this helps! Thank you!

Degger [83]

Answer:

x=pi*n/2+1/2arctan(7/5)

Step-by-step explanation:

5sin(2x)=7cos(2x)

5tan(2x)=7/5

2x=pi*n+arctan(7/5)

x=pi*n/2+1/2arctan(7/5) for n e Z
