Questions like this ("how much higher is x than y?") are answered by computing the ratio of the two quantities.
In fact, for example, the answer to "how much higher is 10 than 5?" is 2, because 10:5 = 2, and indeed 10 is twice as much as 5.
So, we have

So, the melting temperature of platinum is about one time and a half higher than the melting temperature of gold.
<span>I have been a high school/jr high math teacher for the past 13 years. I am happy to explain how to proceed with this problem.
A square is a figure where ALL sides are exactly the same. The find the area of the square you would multiply one side times another side. You would be multiplying a number times itself. So if you already have the area, you would take the square root to find your answer. When you do, you end up with 21.21 square inches rounded to the nearest hundredth.</span>
Answer:
slope = -3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope:
−
3/4
y-intercept:

/4
Any line can be graphed using two points. Select two values, and plug them into the equation to find the corresponding values.
x | y
0 | 13
/4
1 | 5/
