Answer:

We have the same homework!!!!

hours that passed= 10

Step-by-step explanation:

(1st step)We start with the expression:

(1st)82-0.4x=78

"STARTED at 82 degrees" 82

"Cooling DOWN 0.4 degrees" -0.4

"EACH hour" x

"NOW 78 degrees" =78

(2nd step) We want to get the variable x alone, so we have to do the opposite sign they have, to cancel the number out for it to be 0.

(1st) 82 -0.4x =78

(2nd) -82 ÷-0.4 =78

(3rd)Now, you work out the problem (transfer the numbers from the left to the right). First, you have to do the subtraction sign, not sure why.

(1st) 82 -0.4x =78

(2nd) -82 ÷-0.4 =78

(3rd) 78 -82= -4

-4÷-0.4= 10

X= 10

there you have it!

To make sure this is correct, you do the following.

82 -0.4 x 10

Solve using PEMDAS

-0.4 x 10 = -4

its time to add 82.

82 - 4 = 78

78 is the exact temperature that was said in the problem

A race car can travel 2 laps In 10 minutes How long will it take the race car to complete 100 laps at that rate ?
34kurt

Answer:

500 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so the first thing we want to do is figure out how long it takes to complete one lap.

So if it takes 10 minutes to travel 2 laps lets find out how many minutes for one.

It would be 5 minutes for one lap, if you divide 10 by 2 because of the 2 laps.

Next, you just multiply the 5 minutes by 100 laps:

This gives you 500 minutes.

Hope this helps :)
