−5t+12−1/2t =−5(−10)+12−1/2(−10)

−5t+12−1/2t =50+12−1/2(−10)

−5t+12−1/2t =50+12−(−5)

−5t+12−1/2t =50+12+5

−5t+12−1/2t =50+17

−5t+12−1/2t =67

​Thus, the value of −5t+12−1/2t for t=−10 is 67

Given: The hottest recorded day in Florida history was 109∘F, which occurred on June 29, 1931 in Monticello.

To Determine: Convert this temperature to degrees Celsius. Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a degree.

For converting this temperature to degrees Celsius we use 5/9(F−32)

It is given that the hottest recorded day in Florida history was 109∘F, which occurred on June 29, 1931 in Monticello.

Hence, Put F=109∘ in 5/9(F−32)

then we get,

⇒5/9(F−32)

=5/9(109−32)

​Now, apply PEDMAS rule then we get,

=5/9(109−32)

=5/9(77)

=0.5555(77)

=42.7777

≈42.8∘

For converting this temperature to degrees Fahrenheit we use 9/5c+32

It is given that the coldest recorded day in Florida history was about −18.9∘C, which occurred on February 13,1899 in the city of Tallahassee.

Hence,put c=−18.9∘C in 9/5c+32 then we get,

⇒9/5c+32

=9/5(−18.9)+32

​Now, apply BODMAS rule then we get,

=9/5(−18.9)+32

9/5(−18.9)+32 =1.8(−18.9)+32

9/5(−18.9)+32 =−34.02+32

9/5(−18.9)+32 =−2.02

9/5(−18.9)+32 ≈−2∘F

​Thus, the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit is −2∘F

Page 2 Problem 14 Answer

Given: The balance in Mr. Sanchez′s bank account was $293.74 and he accidentally wrote a check for $300.

To find His balance now.

Subtract the check  Mr. Sanchez  accidentaly wrote from his balance bank account.

When the amount that is subtracted is greater than the amount from which it is subtracted, then you can subtract the smaller amount from the larger amount and put the negative sign in the result.

Mr. Sanchez’s bank account balance is $293.74.

He wrote a check of $300.

The new balance will be the difference of the starting balance minus the amount of the chek:

So, his new balance is: 293.74−300=−6.96.

Therefore, the balance amount in Mr. Sanchez’s bank account after the accicentally wrote a check for $300

when the balance of his bank account was $293.74 is −$6.26.

When the signs of the numbers are the different, find the difference of their absolute values.

Use the sign of the number with the greater absolute value.

On substitute the value of n in the given expression and writing it in the form of addition we get −18−201/5=18+(−101/5)

Absolute difference of 18 and 101/5 is -101/5−18=11/5

Using the sign of a number with greater value we get-The value of the expression 18−n for n=201/5 is −11/5.

Given ΔABC∼ΔDEF

To Find : x in the given diagram

In order to find the solution, we need to find EF by applying similar to rule.

ΔABC∼ΔDEF∼ is known as similar sign, where we now know that,

AB/DE=BC/EF=AC/DF But since, the value of AB and DE

has not been provided, then the equation will change into,

BC/EF=AC/DF

Now replace the equation with the values given in the diagram:

5/x=9/27

Use cross multiplication, where N1 is multiplied by D2 and D1 is multiplied by N2. The new equation will be

5×27=9×x

5×27=9×x

Now, to find the x solve the equation

=135=9x

Divide 135 with 9

=135/9

=x

=x=15 cm

​The value of x=15 cm

Given the height of the first pole and both the shadow.

To find: height of the second pole.

In order to find the height of the second pole:

we will substitute the height with the xconvert the equation into fraction and cross multiply it to find the solution of x

Since we know the both shadow lengths, let’s convert it into fraction, as,4ft/20ft

Let’s make the height of the second utility pole be x, and convert it into fraction,5.5ft/x

To find x, combine the equation together

4ft/20ft=5.5ft/x

In order to find x, Cross multiply the given equation

=4×x=20×5.5

=4x=110​

Divide 110 with 4

x=110/4ft

x=27.5ft

​The height of the utility pole is 27.5 ft.

Given: Radius of cylinder=3cm

Length of cylinder=10cm

and every dimension of cylinder is multiplied by 3 to form a new cylinder.

To find the ratio of the volumes related to the ratio of corresponding dimension

We find the new dimension and using that we find new volume and proceed.

Original radius=3cm;Length=10cm

New Radius =3× 3 cm =9cm

new length = 10× 3 = 30cm

we know Volume of cylinder = 2πrh2

Therefore, ratio of volume=  2π(3)2(10)2π(9)2(30)=1/27=1/33

Hence the ratio of volume is 3 times the ratio of dimension

Hence the ratio of volume is 32 times the ratio of dimension

Let b be the original breadth

Let the scale factor be x

b2(b×x)2=48/12

=(b/bx)2

=4/1

=(1/x)2

=4/1 [Find the square root of both sides]

=1/x

=2/1 [Invert to find x]

=x=1/2 The scale factor of the rectangle is 1/2.
