The temperature of an enclosure for a pet corn snake should be an average of 81° F. For the well-being of the corn snake, the te

mperature in the enclosure should not vary by more than 5° F. Which absolute value equation could be used to determine the minimum and maximum temperatures recommended for the corn snake enclosure?

Answer: |81-x|<5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Temperature of an enclosure for a pet corn snake should be an average of 81° F.

Temperature in the enclosure should not vary by more than 5° F.

Let x= Temperature in the enclosure

Then, difference between average and current temperature should less the 5.

i.e. |81-x|<5 (required absolute value equation )

hence, the absolute value equation could be used to determine the minimum and maximum temperatures recommended for the corn snake enclosure:

|81-x|<5

Which function will have the steepest graph? y = –2x y =-1/2 x y = 3/2x y =5/2 x

timofeeve [1]

The steepest graph is gonna have the largest slope....but u have to use the absolute value of the slopes to compare

y = -2x.....slope is -2....| -2 | = 2
y = -1/2x...slope is -1/2....| -1/2 | = 1/2
y = 3/2x....slope is 3/2 (or 1 1/2)...| 1 1/2} = 1 1/2
y = 5/2x...slope is 5/2 (or 2 1/2)...| 2 1/2| = 2 1/2

so the steepest graph is : y = 5/2x

Eudora ran from her home to her secret laboratory at an average speed of 12\text{ km/h}12 km/h12, start text, space, k, m, slash

OleMash [197]

Answer:

Eudora spent 0.5 hours from home to library and 1.5 hours from library to school

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Home to Library:

$S_1 = 12km/h$ -- Average Speed

Library to School

$S_2 = 76km/h$ -- Average Speed

Total

$Distance = 120km$

$Time = 2\ hr$

Required

Determine the time taken from home to library and from library to school

Let the time spent from home to library be x. So, from library to school will be: 2 - x

So, we have:

Home to Library:

$S_1 = 12km/h$ -- Average Speed

$T_1 =x$ -- Time

Library to School

$S_2 = 76km/h$ -- Average Speed

$T_2 =2 - x$ -- Time

Distance is calculated as:

$Distance = Speed * Time$

Home to Library:

$D_1 = S_1 * T_1$

$D_1 = 12 * x$

$D_1 = 12x$

Library to School:

$D_2 = S_2 * T_2$

$D_2 = 76 * (2- x)$

$D_2 = 152- 76x$

The total distance is 120km. So, we have:

$120km = D_1 + D_2$

$120 = 12x + 152 - 76x$

Collect Like Terms

$120 - 152 = 12x - 76x$

$-32 = -64x$

$-64x=-32$

Solve for x

$x = \frac{-32}{-64}$

$x = 0.5$

Recall that:

$T_1 =x$

$T_2 = 2 - x$

So, we have:

$T_1 = 0.5$

$T_2 = 2 -0.5 = 1.5$
