The tempeture of chicken soup is 192.7 degrees F. As it cools the tempeture of the soup decreases 2.3F per minute.

Mathematics
1 answer:
IrinaK [193]2 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer to Part A, we can turn this into a simple equation:

192.7 - (2.3 times 25) = <em>temperature, </em>the missing value.

So therefore, after 25 minutes pass, the temperature is equal to

192.7 - 57.5, or:

135.2 = Answer to Part A.

Now, onto Part B. We can use <u>another</u> equation!

192.7 - 2.3x = 100.7

Now, we must solve the given equation, first by taking 100.7 from each side:

192.7 - 2.3x = 100.7

-100.7             -100.7

We are now left with: 92 - 2.3x = 0 - we must now add 2.3x to 2.3x and 0, giving us this:

92 = 2.3x, which is equivalent to 920 = 23x, if that is what you prefer to solve.

To give us our missing value (x), we can divide 920 by 23, giving us: x = 40. This is the answer to Part B: 40 minutes.

I hope this was really helpful! Tell me if you need any more help.

An Indian tepee is a conical tent. Find the number of cubic feet of air in a teepee 10 ft. in diameter and 12 ft. high.
vampirchik [111]
Surface Area of a cone is 

<span>pi * r * s + pi * r^2 </span>

<span>s is the side length, since you have 10 ft diameter, you know radius is 5. And since height is 12. With this, you have a 5-12-13 triangle, and s=13. </span>

<span>so </span>

<span>pi * 5 * 14 + pi * 5^2 = 95 pi or 298.3 </span>

<span>divide 298.3 by 15 and you get 19.88, you round up, so 20 is the answer </span>

What is the probability of throwing a number greater than 4 when rolling a number cube that has sides labeled 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6?
Leona [35]
What is probability rolling a number greater than 4?

The only numbers there are is 5 and 6.
That means that there are 2 outcomes out of 6 total outcomes.
That would be 2/6.
Divide the the top and bottom by 2.
In simplest form it would be 1/3.
2/6=1/3

The answer is 1/3. The probability of throwing a number greater than 4 is 1/3.

If m∠EBD= 4x - 8 and m∠EBC= 5x + 20, find the value of x and m∠EBC.
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

-28 = x

Step-by-step explanation

[5x + 20] + [4x - 8] = 180

9x + 12 = 180

- 12 -12

______________

9x = 168

18⅔ = x

m∠EBC = 5[18⅔] + 20 = 113⅓

93⅓

You will get a negative answer if you set them equal to each other, which is not allowed when you are talking about <em>length</em><em>.</em>

I hope this is correct, and as always, I am joyous to assist anyone at any time.

Kyle soles 18 of 24 puzzles in a puzzle book. he says that he can use an equivalent fraction to find the percent of puzzles in t
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

He solved 75% of the puzzles!

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, let's look at our fraction 18 out of 24. We can see that they are both even numbers, so at worst, we can divide the entire fraction by two. However, they have a GCF of six, so we will use that.

18                               3

----  divided by 6  =  ----

24                              4

Now that we have the fraction 3/4, we can turn that into a percentage!

3/4 is 0.75. To get the percentage, we multiply that by 100--now we have 75%.

One less than half a number is 12. What is the number
olga_2 [115]
To find this, turn the word question into an equation.
"One less than" means - 1, which is 1 being subtracted from something.
"half a number" means 1/2x, since 1/2 is half and x is unknown.
"is 12" means = 12, which is something equals 12.
Putting this in order would be 1/2x, then - 1, then = 12.
As an equation, this is 1/2x - 1 = 12.
So the equation is 1/2x - 1 = 12

Now you must find the number by solving this equation.
1/2x - 1 = 12
First, add 1 to both sides.
12 + 1 = 13
1/2x = 13
Now multiply both sides by 2.
This way, x will be isolated since 1/2x • 2 = 1x, and 1x = x.
13 • 2 = 26
x = 26
The number is 26.
