The temperature of the pool water started at 82 degrees, and it is cooling down 0.4 degrees each hour. If the water temperature

is now 78 degrees, then how many hours have passed?

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

The system crosses at the point (3, 4). How many solutions will the system have?
vagabundo [1.1K]
For this case suppose that we have a linear system of equations of the form:
 ax + by = c
 dx + ey = f
 The solution of the system is an ordered pair of the form:
 (x, y)
 That is, both lines intersect at a point.
 The point of intersection in this case is:
 (3, 4)
 Therefore, the system has one solution.
 Answer
 
the system will have:

What is the median of those in the the picture please help
Molodets [167]

Answer:

Median is 24.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Median is the middle number in a set of numbers. If we have two middle numbers, we get the average. And from the question, listing them out, we have this

0,1, 2, 3,4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49.

The middle number here is 24 and 25. Getting their average will be 24.5

Which of the following equations describes the line shown below? Check all<br> that apply.
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

B. y = 2x - 2

E. y + 4 = 2(x + 1)

F. y - 6 = 2(x - 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line can be found using either the point-slope equation or the slope-intercept equation.

✔️Equation of the line in point-slope using the slope and the coordinates of the point (4, 6):

Slope = m = change in y/change in x

Using (4, 6) and (-1, -4),

m = (-4 - 6)/(-1 - 4)

m = -10/-5

m = 2

Substitute m = 2, and (a, b) = (4, 6) into the point-slope equation form y - b = m(x - a)

Thus:

y - 6 = 2(x - 4)

✔️Equation of the line in point-slope using the slope and the coordinates of the point (-1, -4):

Slope = m = 2

Substitute m = 2, and (a, b) = (-1, -4) into the point-slope equation form y - b = m(x - a)

Thus:

y - (-4) = 2(x - (-1))

y + 4 = 2(x + 1)

✔️Equation of the line in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b

Where,

m = slope = 2

b = y-intercept = -2 (the point where the line intercepts the y-axis)

Thus, substitute m = 2 and b = -2 into y = mx + b

y = 2x + (-2)

y = 2x - 2
