Answer: the Jones family paid $164
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the one time charge that smith lake boat rentals charge for cleaning.
The bengal family rented a boat from 11 am- 6:30pm and paid $226.50. This means that the number of hours for which they rented the boat is
11 - 6:30/= 7.5 hours
Therefore,
25 × 7.5 + x = 226.5
187.5 + x = 226.5
x = 226.5 - 187.5
x = $39
If the jones family rented a boat from 8am-1pm, the number of hours would be 5 hours.
The amount that they paid is
39 + 5 × 25 = 39 + 125
= $164
Absolute Value
Absolute Value
means ...
... only how far a number is from zero:
<span>
<span><span>
</span>
<span>
<span>
"6" is 6 away from zero,
and "−6" is also 6 away from zero.
So the absolute value of 6 is 6,
and the absolute value of −6 is also 6 </span>
</span>
</span></span>
More Examples:
<span><span>The absolute value of −9 is 9</span><span>The absolute value of 3 is 3</span><span>The absolute value of 0 is 0</span><span>The absolute value of −156 is 156</span></span>
No Negatives!
So in practice "absolute value" means to remove any negative
sign in front of a number, and to think of all numbers as positive (or
zero).
Absolute Value Symbol
To show that we want the absolute value of something, we put
"|" marks either side (they are called "bars" and are found on the right
side of a keyboard), like these examples:
<span>
<span><span>
|−5| = 5
|7| = 7
</span>
</span></span>
Sometimes absolute value is also written as "abs()", so abs(−1) = 1 is the same as <span>|−1| = 1</span>

Answer:
- -2.2(6) +1.8(4) . . . temperature change
- 42 °C
Step-by-step explanation:
At the end of the first 6 hours, the temperature change was ...
(-2.2 K/h)(6 h) = -13.2 K
The change in the next 4 hours was ...
(1.8 K/h)(4 h) = 7.2 K
Then the total change over the 10-hour period was ...
(-2.2)(6) +(1.8)(4) . . . . . expression for temperature change
This evaluates to -13.2 +7.2 = -6.
__
The final temperature is the sum of the initial temperature and the temperature change:
final temperature = 48 °C -6 °C = 42 °C
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
When temperature is measured on the Celsius scale, a change of 1 degree is called a kelvin (K).
