To solve this equation, all you need to do is substitute the value of x that would be like this y = -2 (-3) -7 and solve, the answer would be -1.
Answer:
- 12 meters
28 meters
40 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
A fish is 12 meters below the surface of the ocean. What is its elevation?
Position of fish = 12 meters below the surface = - 12 ;
Sea level = 0
Elevation = sea level + position
Elevation = 0 + (- 12)
= - 12 meters
2. A sea bird is 28 meters above the surface of the ocean. What is its elevation?
Position of bird = 28 meters below the surface = (28) ;
Sea level = 0
Elevation = sea level + position
Elevation = 0 + 28
= 28 meters
3. If the bird is directly above the fish, how far apart are they?
If bird is directly above the fish;
Distance between bird and fish :
Elevation of bird - elevation of fish
28 - (-12)
28 + 12
= 40 Meters
(x-2) + (x-1) + x + (x+1) + (x-2) + (x+3) = 447
6x + 3 = 447
6x = 447 - 3
6x = 444
x = 444/6
x = 74
-5x - 6y = -21
5x - y =. 84
-7y = 63
y= -9
-5x = -21 - 54
-5x = -75
x = 15
