Answer:
False
Step-by-step explanation:
At sea level, elevation is 0. This means that we can portray sea level as being the midpoint of distances below sea level and distances above sea level.
Thus, a distance of 1 m below sea level = - 1 is equivalent to a distance of 1 m above sea level albeit in opposite directions.
Hence, an elevation of 15m above sea level is greater in distance Than an elevation of - 10 m below sea level because the absolute value of 15 is greater than the absolute value of 10.
|15 - 0|= 15
|-10 - 0| = 10
Hence, elevation of - 10 below Sea level is closer to sea level than elevation of 15 above sea level
Answer:
4.8 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the given hint, working together, the amount of floor mopped in 1 minute is ...
1/8 + 1/12 = 3/24 +2/24 = 5/24 . . . . jobs/minute
The reciprocal of that is the rate in terms of minutes per job. Thus the entire job takes 24/5 = 4.8 minutes.
