The temperature of a substance in an experiment changes by −8.7°F from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. At 5 p.m., the temperature is 33.5°F. I

t is 2/3 of what the temperature was at 1 p.m. What was the temperature at 10 a.m. of the substance? Enter your answer as a decimal in the box.

The temperature of the substance at 10am  =  63.95°F

Let the temperature at 10 am be x

The temperature changes by −8.7°F from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m

The temperature at 1 pm = x  -  8.7

At 5 p.m., the temperature is 33.5°F

The temperature at 5 pm = 33.5°F

The temperature at 5 pm is 2/3 of what the temperature was at 1 p.m

33.5 = \frac{2}{3} ( x-8.7 )

Solve for x

3(33.5)  =  2(x  -  8.7)

110.5  =  2x  -  17.4

2x  =  110.5 +  17.4

2x   =  127.9

x   =  127.9/2

x   =  63.95°F

The temperature of the substance at 10am =  63.95°F

Two complex numbers are given byz1= 3 +j4 andz2= 2 +j3. Determine in both polar andCartesian forms
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Cartesian

z₁= 3 +4*j

z₂= 2 +3*j

Polar

z₁=5 * e^ (0.927*j)

z₁=√13 * e^ (0.982*j)

Step-by-step explanation:

for the complex numbers z the cartesian form of is

z= x + y*j

then

1) z₁= 3 +4*j (cartesian form)

2) z₂= 2 +3*j (cartesian form)

the polar form is

z= r* e^jθ

where

r= √(x²+y²) → r₁ = √(3²+4²) = 5 ,  r₂ = √(2²+3²) = √13

and

θ = tan⁻¹ (y/x)  → θ₁  = tan⁻¹ (4/3)= 0.927 rad , θ₂  = tan⁻¹ (3/2)= 0.982 rad

then

z₁=5 * e^ (0.927*j)

z₁=√13 * e^ (0.982*j)

Use the drop-down menus to identify the GCF of each pair of numbers.
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

4, 15, 6, 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. 12 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12 16 = 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 The GCF of 12 and 16 is 4 because when you compare the numbers that go into 12 and 16, 4 is the highest number that they both are multiples of.

Try the others by yourself and if you have any questions ask me in the comments

Which is not an equation of the line going through (6, 7) and (2, –1)?
garri49 [273]
Answer - D.

you basically find the equation of the line first and eliminate the wrong answers...

Strategy:  before u do any of this, label your coordinates as (X1,Y1) and (X2,Y2) and u can choose any of ur points to be as x1 or x2 or y1 or y1...
basically, I'll choose (6,7) as (x1,y1) and (2,-1) as (x2,y2). SO,

First you have to  find the gradient (m) of the line.
  you do this by using the formula m = Y2-Y1 / X2-X1 (where '/' is division sign) ....
Put the numbers in their respective places and your gradient will be 2x. we put the x after our number to represent it as a gradient as the straight line formula is y = mx+c and you've found the m.
NOW.
use the formula Y-Y1=m(x-x1) to find the equation of the line.Again u can use any Y1 and X1 here but remember your m is 2

replace the digits and solve...Hopefully you'll get sth like this if you use the points (6,7):
Y-7 = 2(x-6) ....
y=2x-12+7...
Y=2x-5! <<<< this is your straight line equation!
Now all u gotta do is rearrange all your options into y = mx+c.
D. is incorrect as it gives us y=2x+5 and not y = 2x-5 unlike the others 
 

Hope you get it!
