Step-by-step explanation:

this is a college question ?

oh, my dear ...

we start at -426 ft.

swimming upwards reduces depth by adding hight.

so,

-426 + 212 = -214 ft

basically the same method is used as if we would subtract 212 from 426.

so, the diver is currently at -214 ft (214 ft below the surface).

algol [13]

Answer:

  • C = 0.97m
  • $1164 for 1200 miles
  • 845 miles for $820

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a car's cost of operation is $485 for 500 miles, you want an equation relating cost for m miles, and solutions to that equation for 1200 miles, and for a cost of $820.

<h3>Cost per mile</h3>

The cost per mile is found by dividing the cost by the associated number of miles:

  $485/(500 mi) = $0.97 /mi

<h3>Equation</h3>

The equation for the cost will show the cost as the cost per mile multiplied by the number of miles:

  C = 0.97m . . . . . where C is cost in dollars for m miles driven

<h3>1200 miles</h3>

The cost for driving $1200 miles will be ...

  C = 0.97(1200) = $1164

The cost of driving 1200 miles is $1164.

<h3>$820</h3>

The number of miles that can be driven for a cost of $820 is ...

  820 = 0.97m

  m = 820/0.97 = 845.36

About 845 miles are driven for a cost of $820.

Nataliya [291]

The U.S RDA for protein is 46g for girl

If a piece of fried chicken contains 23g

To find the pieces of chicken she is to eat to satisfy the U.S RDA requirement,

The number of pieces of chicken is

\text{Number of pieces}=\frac{U.S.\text{ RDA g protein required for a girl}}{g\text{ of protein in a piece of chicken}}

The number of pieces of chicken is

\begin{gathered} \text{Number of pieces of chicken}=\frac{46}{23}=2\text{ pieces of chicken} \\ \text{Number of pieces of chicken}=2\text{ pieces of chicken} \end{gathered}

Hence, the right option is B
