Answer:
h(t) = -5t + 500
Step-by-step explanation:
At time zero, the elevator is at 500 ft.
At time 5 seconds, the elevator is at 475 ft.
The difference in height is -25 ft.
The elevator traveled -25 ft (25 ft down) in 5 seconds, so it travels at a speed of 5 ft per second. Since it is traveling down, its speed is -5 ft/sec.
For each second of travel, it loses 5 ft of height.
h(t) = -5t + 500
Let x and y be the 2 numbers
x + y = 8
x - y = 6
Add the 2 equations
2x = 14 => x = 7
Plug 7 into the first equation => y = 1
I really hope this helps!
<em>If the number you are rounding is followed by 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9, round the number up (+1).</em>
<em>If the number you are rounding is followed by 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4, round the number down (no change).</em>
The answer to this is 40. I know i'm right because I did all the work and i double checked on a calculator XD
