The submarine's depth relative to sea level after the first minute is 1.2 miles

<h3>How to find the submarine's depth relative to sea level after the first minute?</h3>

To find the submarine's depth after the first minute, we first need to find the rate at which the submarine descends, r.

The rate at which the submarime descends is r = d/t where

  • d = submarine's depth and
  • t = time of descent to depth d.

Given that submarine descended at a constant rate to a depth of −3/4 mile relative to sea level in 5/8 minutes, we have that

  • d = -3/4 mile and
  • t = 5/8 minutes.

So, substituting these into r, we have

r = d/t

= -3/4 mile ÷ 5/8 min

= -3/4 × 8/5

= -3 × 2/5

= -6/5

= -1.2 mile/min

So, the depth of the submarine after the first minute is given by D = rt where r = rate of descent =  -1.2 mile/min and t = time = 1 min

So, substituting these into D, we have

D = rt

=  -1.2 mile/min × 1 min

= -1.2 mile

So, the submarine's depth relative to sea level after the first minute is 1.2 miles

Find X, AB, BC, AC if B is the midpoint of AC
Artemon [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

it all starts with the understanding that "midpoint" means that the line segments on both sides have the exact same length.

this is the same as "cut a pizza or a cake in half".

therefore, we know

10x + 1 = 8x + 13

2x + 1 = 13

2x = 12

x = 6

AB = 10x + 1 = 10×6 + 1 = 60 + 1 = 61

BC = AB but to control : 8×6 + 13 = 48+13 = 61

correct.

AC = AB + BC = 61 + 61 = 122
