Answer:

5ºF per hour decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the temperature in Fairbanks, Alaska, fell 10 degrees in 2 hours

For finding average we normally divide the total by number of units

Here change in temperature for 2 days is given as -10 degrees (negative sign is used to denote decrease)

For 2 days change in temperature = -10 degrees F

Hence average change in temperature = change for one day

= -10/2 = -5 degrees F

So answer is 5ºF per hour decrease

It changes every 1 5 degrees because 10 divided by 5 is 2

Cylinder A has a volume of 360 cm3. Cylinder B has a base and height identical to that of cylinder B, but leans to the right in

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

I think the volume of cylinder B will be the same as that of cylinder A that is 360cm³
This is because the volume of the cylinder is dependent on the base and the perpendicular height, therefore, the slanting of the cylinder wont change its volume

What is the numerator of the simplified sum? StartFraction x Over x squared + 3 x + 2 EndFraction + StartFraction 3 Over x + 1 E

ozzi

Answer:

4x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{x}{x^2+3x+2}$ + $\frac{3}{x+1}$

Before we can add the fractions we require them to have a common denominator.

Factor the denominator of the first fraction

$\frac{x}{(x+1)(x+2)}$ + $\frac{3}{x+1}$

Multiply the numerator / denominator of the second fraction by (x + 2)

= $\frac{x}{(x+1)(x+2)}$ + $\frac{3(x+2)}{(x+1)(x+2)}$ ← fractions now have a common denominator

Add the numerators leaving the denominators

= $\frac{x+3(x+2)}{(x+1)(x+2)}$

= $\frac{x+3x+6}{(x+1)(x+2)}$

= $\frac{4x+6}{(x+1)(x+2)}$ ← simplified sum with numerator 4x + 6
