Question

MEADL FOR RIGHT ANSWER

The temperature was 65 degrees at daybreak. Then it dropped two degrees per hour until dusk. If x is the number of hours since daybreak, this equation represents the temperature during the day: y = -2x + 65 OR y = 65 - 2x. Use the equation to predict the temperature six hours later.

Answer 1

You can't do anything. First of all the equations don't make sense. There is nothing to combine.

Answer 2

wait

Answer 3

?

Answer 4

Nvr mind

Answer 5

a. 53
b. 63
c. 61
d. 59

Answer 6

Okay what is the formula for calculating temperature?

Answer 7

Ok, so let's use y = 65 - 2x

Answer 8

kk

Answer 9

Since x is the number of hours, and it asks what the temperature will be in 6 hours, you replace x with 6. So the equation is y = 65 - 2 x 6

Answer 10

Ok, so what is 2 x 6?

Answer 11

How do u know that x = 6?

Answer 12

12, 65-12 = 53
