Answer:

8 Feet below the surface

Step-by-step explanation:

If the salmon were initially 5 feet below the surface, and then travelled down an additional 3 feet from the initial 5, then the new position would be 8 feet down relative to the surface.

You can write this as -5 + -3 = -8, assuming that 0 represents surface level.

Cheers.

Please help with Volume
Archy [21]

Given:

Length of the cuboid tank = 4 m

Breadth = 2.5 m

Height = 2.4 m

One third of the tank is filled with water.

1 cubic meter = 1000 liters.

To find:

The quantity of the water in the tank.

Solution:

Volume of a cuboid is:

V=l\times b\times h

Where, l is length, b is breadth and h is the height.

The volume of the tank is :

V=4\times 2.5\times 2.4

V=24

Volume of tank is 24 cubic meter.

One third of the tank is filled with water. So, the volume of the water is

\dfrac{24}{3}=8

The volume of water is 8 cubic meters.

We have,

1 cubic meter = 1000 liters.

8 cubic meter = 8000 liters.

Therefore, the quantity of the water in the tank is 8000 liters.

What’s 7y+8=57?????!!?!????
forsale [732]
Ok so basically your going to subtract 57-8 which is 49. So now you have 7y=49 so now divide 49 by 7 which is 7. So your answer is 7 and to check your work substitute 7 for y so.... 7(7)+8=57 so 57=57 which is accurate
