Answer:
a) 9 meters.
b) The total change in temperature was of 288ºC
Step-by-step explanation:
Both these questions can be solved using rules of three.
a) 72 meters in 8 seconds. How many meters it changes each second(in 1 second)?
8s - 72m
1s - x m
[tex]8x = 72[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{72}{8}[/tex]
[tex]x = 9[/tex]
9 meters.
b) In 1 hour, heated by 6ºC. How much in total during 48 hours?
1h - 6ºC
48h - xºC
x = 48*6
The total change in temperature was of 288ºC
