The elevation we call sea level is actually the average level of the sea. This means that at average sea level, the elevation is zero. In reality, the level of the sea rises and falls in what are called tides. Low tide is the point of lowest sea level in a tidal period. High tide is the point of highest sea level in a tidal period. The height above or below average sea level is called elevation. An elevation below sea level is considered a negative value, while an elevation above sea level is positive.
Winston lives near the ocean. He regularly brings an altimeter to the beach to measure the elevation of the ocean’s surface. You will use the data Winston gathered to complete tasks about the rising and falling of the ocean’s surface. When necessary, sketch a diagram of the situation on a separate sheet of paper to assist you.
On Monday at 1pm, when the ocean’s surface was at an elevation of 2.2 feet, Winston went to a surf shop that was 8.2 feet above the ocean’s surface. At 7 p.m. when the ocean’s surface was at an elevation of -2.4 feet, Winston ate dinner at a restaurant whose deck was 10 feet above the ocean’s surface.

What was the net change in the elevation of the ocean’s surface from 1 p.m. to 7 p.m.?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

-4.6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking for the net change in the ocean's surface elevation, so we can ignore the parts of the question that mention his own elevation at the time of the measuring. We can see at 1, the elevation was 2.2, and at 7, the elevation was -2.4. The net change is the whole change over the period of time, so we just need to find the difference between the two. Adding them together gives you the distance from each elevation the sea's surface was, which is -4.6 ft as the elevation decreased

Find the 9th term.

Answers

Answer:

The 9th term of the sequence is:

[tex]a_9=\frac{65536}{6561}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the sequence

1, 4/3,16/9

computing the ratios of all the adjacent terms

[tex]\frac{\frac{4}{3}}{1}=\frac{4}{3},\:\quad \frac{\frac{16}{9}}{\frac{4}{3}}=\frac{4}{3}[/tex]

The difference between all the adjacent terms is the same and equal to

[tex]r=\frac{4}{3}[/tex]

A geometric sequence has a constant ratio 'r' and is defined by

[tex]a_n=a_1\cdot r^{n-1}[/tex]

As

[tex]a_1=1[/tex][tex]r=\frac{4}{3}[/tex]

so substituting [tex]a_1=1[/tex] and [tex]r=\frac{4}{3}[/tex] in the nth term of the equation

[tex]a_n=a_1\cdot r^{n-1}[/tex]

[tex]a_n=\left(\frac{4}{3}\right)^{n-1}[/tex]

Now, substitute n = 9 to determine the 9th term

[tex]a_9=\left(\frac{4}{3}\right)^{9-1}[/tex]

[tex]a_9=\left(\frac{4}{3}\right)^8[/tex]

[tex]a_9=\frac{4^8}{3^8}[/tex]

[tex]a_9=\frac{65536}{6561}[/tex]

Therefore, the 9th term of the sequence is:

[tex]a_9=\frac{65536}{6561}[/tex]

The ratio of males to females at a party is 3 : 5

There are 12 more females than males.

How many people are at the party?

Answers

if there are 12 more females and the ratio is two up in favour of females that means that 1 equals to 6, so there are 30 females and 18 males. (30 + 18 = 48)

Answer:

48

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ratio of males to females at a party is 3 : 5.

Let the numbers of males and females be 3x and 5x respectively.

According to the given description:

No of females = No of males + 13

Therefore,

5x = 3x + 12

5x - 3x = 12

2x = 12

x = 12/2

x = 6

No of people at the party

= 3x + 5x

= 8x

= 8*6

= 48

Answers

If you buy the 10-pack you pay 60 cents per can ($6.00 / 10 cans = .60/can). If you buy the 24-pack, you pay more than 66 cents per can ($15.96 / 24 cans = .665/can). So it is cheaper to buy the 10-pack (60 cents vs. 66 cents for each can)

What is the value of q in the solution to this system of equations?
2m - 5q= 8
4m + 2q = 64

Answers

Answer: I’m guessing 9

Step-by-step explanation:

fvccckkk school lol

An equation is a mathematical statement that is made up of two expressions connected by an equal sign.

2m - 5q = 8

4m + 2q = 64

The value of q in the solution to the equations is 4.

What is an equation?

An equation is a mathematical statement that is made up of two expressions connected by an equal sign.

Example:

2x + 3 = 4 is an equation.

2X = 4 is an equation.

We have,

2m - 5q = 8 ____(1)

4m + 2q = 64 _____(2)

From (1) we get,

2m = 8 + 5q

Divide both sides by 2.

m = (8 + 5q)/2 ______(3)

Now,

Putting (3) in (2) we get,

4m + 2q = 64

4/2 (8 + 5q) + 2q = 64

2 (8 + 5q) + 2q = 64

16 + 10q + 2q = 64

16 + 12q = 64

12q = 64 - 16

q = 48/12

q = 4

Now,

q = 4 in (3) we get,

m = (8 + 5q) / 2

m = (8 + 5 x 4) / 2

m = (8 + 20) / 2

m = 28 / 2

m = 14

Thus,

The value of q in the solution to the equations is 4.

NK =

m

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

If the quadrilateral below is a rhombus, find the missing measures.

MK = 24, JL = 20, and mZMJL = 50°

Solution:

A rhombus is a quadrilateral (has four sides and four angles) such that all the sides are of equal length.

The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other.

NK = MK / 2 (diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other)

NK = 24 / 2 = 12

NL = JL / 2 (diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other)

NL = 20 / 2 = 10

In triangle MNL, ∠N = 90°

MN = NK = 12 , NL = 10. Using Pythagorean theorem:

ML² = MN² + NL²

ML² = 12² + 10²

ML² = 244

ML = √244

ML = 2√61 = 15.62

JM = ML  = 15.62 (all sides of a rhombus are equal)

∠KNL = 90° (diagonals are perpendicular bisectors)

∠KJL = ∠MJL (diagonals bisect angles)

∠KJL = 50°

∠MJK = ∠KJL + ∠MJL = 50 + 50 = 100°

∠MJK = ∠MLK (opposite angles are equal)

∠MLK = 100°

∠NJK + ∠JNK + ∠JKM = 180° (sum of angles in triangle)

50 + 90 + ∠JKM = 180

∠JKM = 40°

∠JKL = 2 * ∠JKM (diagonal bisect angle)

∠JKL = 2 * 40

∠JKL = 80°

∠JKL = ∠JML (opposite angles are equal)

∠JML = 80°

ryan wants to buy a sweatshirt for $42.99. The sale tax rate in his city is 7 1/2% what is the total cost for the sweatshirt? round your answer to the nearest cent.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: Answer:46.21

Step-by-step explanation:t/42.99 = 7.5/100.

Butterfly method

42.99 x 7.5 = 322.42 divided by 100= 3.22 plus 42.99 = 46.21etc

The total cost for the sweatshirt is $46.21.

What is a percentage?

A ratio or value that may be stated as a fraction of 100 is called a percentage. And it is represented by the symbol '%'.

Given:

Ryan wants to buy a sweatshirt for $42.99.

The sale tax rate in his city is 7[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]%.

Converting mixed fraction to improper fraction,

7[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] = 15/2

Let n + 42.99 be the total cost of the sweatshirt.

n = 15/2 x 42.99 / 100

n = 322.425 / 100

n = 3.22

n + 42.99 = 46.21  to the nearest cent.

Therefore, the cost with sales tax is $46.21.

How much would Carson have to pay in a month where he used 3 GB over the limit? How much would Carson have to pay in a month where he used went over by xx GB?

Answers

Answer:

a. $70

b. $(40 + 10x)

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard cost of the charges is $40 per month but an extra $10 per GB over the included amount.

a. Firstly the cost for a month in which he uses 3GB over the limit

we have a standard of $40, then he has to pay $10 per GB for the 3GB over the limit.

Thus the cost of the 3GB is $10 * 3 = $30

The total cost for using 3GB above the limit would be $40 + $30 = $70

b. For using x GB above the limit

He has to pay $10 per each GB above the limit

Thus, the amount to be paid for x GB above the limit would be x * $10 = $10x

So the total amount to be paid would be the base fee plus over the limit fee= $(40 + 10x)
