Patty has a fish pond in her backyard. even though the air temperature outside has change 35 degrees from sunrise to sunset, the water temperature in the fish pond has only changed 2 degrees. the reason for this lack of temperature change in the water is that it has a high

The reason for this lack of temperature change in the water is that it has a high specfic heat .

Step-by-step explanation:

Definition of specfic heat .

The amount of heat required  per unit mass to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius .

Reason = The reason for this lack of temperature change in the water is due to hydrogen bonding present in water molecules .These hydrogen bonds  takes  large amount of heat gain for just 1 degree Celsius change in temperature. therefore water temperature increases slowly.

step-by-step explanation:

(2x + 16) + (x) = 180

step-by-step explanation:

given,

abcd is a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle

angle a is labeled x plus 16, (x + 16)

angle b is labeled x degrees, (x)

angle c is labeled 6x minus 4, (6x – 4)

angle d is labeled 2x plus 16, (2x + 16)

what equation can be used to solve for angle b?

we know that the sum of the opposite angles of a simple quadrilateral inscribed in a circle is 180 degrees.

angle b is opposite angle d

therefore, angle b + angle d = 180

(x) + (2x + 16) = 180 

same as (2x + 16) + (x) = 180
