Suppose you are climbing a hill whose shape is given by the equation z = 1400 − 0.005x2 − 0.01y2, where x, y, and z are measured

in meters, and you are standing at a point with coordinates (100, 120, 1206). the positive x-axis points east and the positive y-axis points north. (a) if you walk due south, will you start to ascend or descend?

Answer: You start to ascend

Explanation:

Since you are walking due south and the positive y-axis points north, the y-coordinate decreases.

Let 

y' = y-coordinate after walking due south
z' = z-coordinate (or the height) after walking due south

So, the point where you stand after walking due south has a coordinate of (100, y', z'). Moreover,

z' = 1,400 - 0.05(100)^2 - 0.01(y')^2
\\ \boxed{z' = 1350 - 0.01(y')^2}

Since the y-coordinate decreases after walking due south and z' = 1350 - 0.01(y')^2,

y'  \leq 120\\ \Rightarrow (y')^2 \leq 120^2 = 14,400\\ \Rightarrow -0.01(y')^2 \geq -0.01(14,400) = -144\\ \Rightarrow z' = 1,350 - 0.01(y')^2 \geq 1,350 - 0.01(14,400) = 1,206\\ \Rightarrow \boxed{z' \geq 1,206}

So, the height after walking due south exceeds 1,206 meters, which is the previous height before walking due south. Therefore, if you walk due south from point with coordinates (100, 120, 1206), you are ascending.

Integer that describes debit of $40
Sladkaya [172]
Alright - we want to start off by seeing if this number would be positive or negative. Debit means that you owe something, or that you have to pay that amount of money. If you had money to buy things with, that would be positive, but since debit means you haven’t paid something off yet, that is negative. Next, since you have 40 dollars in debt, you have -40 dollars.

Erin’s car uses 6 gallons of gas for every 138 miles she drives.which equation could be used to find how many gallons,g, Erin ne
gladu [14]

The equation that could be used to find how many gallons Erin would need to drive 92 miles is 92 = 23g (option c)

<h3>How many gallons is needed to drive 92 miles?</h3>

The first step is to determine the gallons needed to drive 1 mile. To do this, divide the  6 gallons by 138 miles. Division is the process of grouping a number into equal parts using another number. The sign used to denote division is ÷.

Gallons needed for 1 mile = 6/138

In order to determine the gallons needed for 92 miles, multiply the ratio gotten in the previous step by 92

(6/138) x 92 = 4 gallons

The option that gives 4 gallons is : 92 = 23g

g = 92 / 32 = 4
