Water boils at different temperatures at different elevations. The boiling temperature of water is 212 degrees * F sea level (0 feet ) but drops about 1.72 degrees * F for every 1,000 feet of elevation. Write a formula for the boiling point at a given elevation. Then solve the formula for the elevation when the boiling point for water is 190 degrees F.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The elevation when the boiling point of water is [tex]190[/tex] °[tex]F[/tex] is 12790.70 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let every 1,000 feet of elevation be [tex]x[/tex]. Hence, we can write

[tex]T = 212[/tex] [tex]- 1.72x[/tex]

Where [tex]T[/tex] is the boiling temperature of water at different elevations

Now, to the determine the elevation when the boiling point of water is [tex]190[/tex] °[tex]F[/tex].

We will determine [tex]x[/tex] by putting [tex]T = 190[/tex] °[tex]F[/tex].

Hence,

[tex]T = 212[/tex] [tex]- 1.72x[/tex]

[tex]190[/tex]  [tex]= 212[/tex]  [tex]- 1.72x[/tex]

[tex]190 - 212[/tex]    [tex]= - 1.72x[/tex]

[tex]- 22[/tex]  [tex]= - 1.72x[/tex]

[tex]22 = 1.72x\\x = \frac{22}{1.72} \\x = 12.79070[/tex]

Since [tex]x[/tex] represents every 1,000 feet of elevation, then the elevation when the boiling point of water is [tex]190[/tex] °[tex]F[/tex]

[tex]12.79070[/tex] × [tex]1000\\[/tex] [tex]= 12790.70[/tex] feet

Hence,  the elevation when the boiling point of water is [tex]190[/tex] °[tex]F[/tex] is 12790.70 feet

Use the diagram below to find the value of x
{NO} =17
{NP} =5x-6

Answers

Answer : The value of 'x' is 8.

Step-by-step explanation :

As we are given that :

NO = 17

NP = 5x - 6

From the given diagram we conclude that NO and OP are equal and RO and OQ are equal. That means,

NO = OP and RO = OQ

That means,

NO = OP = 17

And we know that:

NP = NO + OP

So,

5x - 6 = 17 + 17

5x - 6 = 34

5x = 34 + 6

5x = 40

x = 8

Thus, the value of 'x' is 8.

The graph of y=-1/2x+2 is positive over the interval negative infinity and 4 and negative over the interval 4 and infinity. What happens on the graph when ​? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

The information that we have is:

"The graph of y=-1/2x+2 is positive over the interval negative infinity and 4 and negative over the interval 4 and infinity."

Now, i guess that the question is:

"What happens on the graph when x = 4 ?"

Well, if for values of x smaller than 4 the graph is negative and for values of x larger than 4 the graph is positive, this must that the graph must cross the x-axis at some point, then with only that information, we can conclude that the graph is equal to zero when x = 4.

But we could also test it with the equation:

y = -(1/2)*x + 2

if we replace the x by a 4.

y = -(1/2)*4 + 2 = -2 + 2 = 0.

Then our previous hypothesis was correct.

two complementary angles have a difference of 36°. Find the measure of each angle. (Complementary angles are angles that add up to 90°) Show ur work

Answers

Answer:

27°,63°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two angles be a and b.

They are complementary, meaning they add up to 90. Thus:

[tex]a+b=90[/tex]

And we are told their difference is 36. Therefore:

[tex]a-b=36[/tex]

Solve for the system of equations. Add b to both sides in the second equation:

[tex]a=b+36[/tex]

Substitute this into the first:

[tex](b+36)+b=90[/tex]

Combine like terms;

[tex]2b+36=90[/tex]

Subtract 36:

[tex]2b=54[/tex]

Divide by 2:

[tex]b=27[/tex]

So, b is 27 degrees.

Use the second equation again:

[tex]a-b=36[/tex]

Now that we know b is 27, substitute:

[tex]a-27=36[/tex]

Add 27 to both sides:

[tex]a=63[/tex]

So, a is 63 degrees.

And we're done :)

Answer:

27 and 63

Step-by-step explanation:

x - y = 36

x + y = 90

add the equations together

2x = 126

x = 63

substitute x for x in the first equation

63 - y = 36

y = 27

Answers

Answer: Choice C

[tex]y \ge 4x-5[/tex]

===============================================

Explanation:

First we need to find the equation of the boundary line. This is the line that separates the shaded region versus the non-shaded region.

The boundary line goes through (0,-5) so this is the y intercept, so b = -5

Another point on the boundary line is (1,-1). The slope of the line through (0,-5) and (1,-1) is m = 4. You can use the slope = rise/run idea or you could use the slope formula to get m = 4.

With m = 4 and b = -5, the y = mx+b equation updates to y = 4x-5

The boundary line has the equation y = 4x-5

Because it is a solid boundary line (instead of dashed) and the shading is above the boundary, this means we change the equal sign to "greater than or equal to"

Therefore we get [tex]y \ge 4x-5[/tex]

Note: a solid boundary line means that points on this boundary are included in the solution set. A dashed boundary line would mean you don't include boundary points in the solution set. So that's why there is a "or equal to" portion in the inequality sign.
