Answer 6

Let x be the lowest recorded temperature in AZ. It's 1.8 times the lowest rec. temp. in RI. What is the lowest rec. temp. in RI?
.
Then x=1.8*( lowest rec. temp. in RI)

Answer 7

So the equation will be 1.8 *x

Answer 8

Please see my previous comment / post.

Answer 9

But I don't understand what will the equations be if the question says if the record low low temperature in R.I is 10 what I'm I supposed to do with the 10

Answer 10

That 10 degrees is the record low temperature in the State of Rhode Island. Do you know where RI and AZ are located within the USA?

Answer 11

Which one do you think is the warmer state?

Answer 12

arizona

Answer 13

But what will the equation be where is the 10 supposed to go

Answer 14

The lowest recorded temperature in RI is 10 degrees. Is the lowest rec. temp. in AZ higher or lower than that?

Answer 15

It's 1.8 times the record low temp is it lower

Answer 16

It's 1.8 times the record low temp in RI. Why do you say "it is lower?"

Answer 17

Oh sorry

Answer 18

Look: If you multiply 10 degrees by 1.8, you get what? That result is the record low temp in AZ.

Answer 19

It equals 18

Answer 20

What equals 18? Not trying to give you a hard time, but all these numbers need labels for identification.

18 degrees is the .....

10 degrees is the ...

Answer 21

Sorry 18 is the 1.8 in Arizona time the 10 which is the temp for R.I

Answer 22

That's better. 18 degrees is the record low for AZ and is 1.8 times 10 degrees, the record low for RI.

Answer 23

So ur telling me that's my
Equation

Answer 24

I typed that out for you about 15 minutes ago:

Let x be the lowest recorded temperature in AZ. It's 1.8 times the lowest rec. temp. in RI. What is the lowest rec. temp. in RI?
.
==> Then x=1.8*( lowest rec. temp. in RI) <==

You have already found x. What's its value?

Answer 25

@DDCamp

Answer 26

What will the equation be

Answer 27

==> x=1.8*( lowest rec. temp. in RI) <==
or x=1.8 (10 degrees)
