13/12 is the answer in simplest fraction form.
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
We divide 60 by 2 as many times as possible to get 60 = 15 x 2 x 2. 2 is a prime number so we don't need to break the 2's down any more. Instead we break 15 down. 15 doesn't divide by 2 so we try the next prime number: 3 Divide 15 by 3 to get 15 = 5 x 3, and so 60 = 5 x 3 x 2 x 2.
Answer:
The solution is x = 10 and x = -6. This quadratic could be represented in factored form as (x - 10)(x + 6) or on a graph with x-intercepts at (10,0) and (-6,0).
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the quadratic, write the quadratic in standard form and factor the equation.
x² - 4x = 60
x² - 4x - 60 = 0
(x - 10)(x + 6) = 0
x = 10 and x = -6
