Answer: - 42.95 feet

Explanation:

Let each ascent be x. Thus,

2 equal ascents = 2x

From the information given,

initial position = - 64.5 feet

Final position after 2 ascents = - 21.4 feet

This means that

- 64.5 + 2x = - 21.4

2x = - 21.4 + 64.5

2x = 43.1

x = 43.1/2

x = 21.55

Thus, Max's elevation after the first ascent is

- 64.5 + 21.55

= - 42.95 feet

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

40% students play the saxophone.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total Number of students who play woodwind instrument = 45

Number of students who play saxophone = 18

We need to find the percent of students who play saxophone.

Solution:

Now we can say that;

To find the percent of students who play saxophone we will divide Number of students who play saxophone by Total Number of students who play woodwind instrument and the multiply by 100.

framing in equation form we get;

percent of students who play saxophone = \frac{18}{45}\times100= 40\%

Hence 40% students play the saxophone.
