An ice sculpture is melting from the heat. Assuming it's height changes by -5/32 meters every hour, what will the change in height be after 4 hours?

Respuesta :

-5/32(4) = -20/32 reduces to -5/8 meters in 4 hrs

Answer:

[tex]-\frac{5}{8}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that an ice sculpture  is melting from the heat.

We have to find the change in height after 4 hours

Height of ice sculpture changes in one  hour=-[tex]\frac{5}{32}[/tex] m

In order to find the height change in 4 hours then we will multiply 4 with [tex]-\frac{5}{32}[/tex].

The height change after 4 hours=[tex]4\times(-\frac{5}{32})[/tex]

The height change after 4 hours=[tex]-\frac{5}{8}[/tex]

Hence,the height after 4 hours=[tex]-\frac{5}{8}[/tex]
