On a cold January day, Mavis noticed that the temperature dropped 21 degrees over the course of the day to 9 degrees Celcius. Write an equation to determine what the temperature was at the beginning of the day.

-9 + 21 = t t = 12°C.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem lets have t be equal to the original temperature in the beginning of the day. The equation -9 + 21 = t represents this situation because it states that if we add the degrees that dropped to the current degrees  it will give us our original degrees. Solve. -9 + 21 = t (Simply add -9 + 21) -9 + 21 = (+12) 12 = t So, the original degrees in the beginning of the day was 12°C.

since your problem is x^4 = 81, what you have to undeo is the "to the fourth power" part.

the inverse (opposite operation) of "to the fourth power" is "to the fourth root".

  (x^4) ^ ¼   = 81 ^ ¼  

  81 = 3^4     so (3 ^ 4) ^ ¼   =   3 ^ 1   = 3

by hand: (3 ^ 4) ^ ¼   =   3 ^ (4 x ¼) = 3 ^ 1   = 3   (when you take a power to a power, multiply the exponents.)

or, do it by calculator. one way of finding the fourth root is to use ^ (1/4)

step-by-step explanation:

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

24−3x=−27

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

24−3x=−27

24+−3x=−27

−3x+24=−27

step 2: subtract 24 from both sides.

−3x+24−24=−27−24

−3x=−51

step 3: divide both sides by -3.

−3x

−3

=

−51

−3

x=17

answer:

x=17
