In mathematics, a quotient (from Latin: quotiens "how many times", pronounced ˈkwoʊʃənt) is the result of division. For example, when dividing 6 by 3, the quotient is 2, while 6 is called the dividend, and 3 the divisor.

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

Feet Above Sea Level

Step-by-step explanation:

A benchmark is a term in Surveying and Geo informatics, that describes a point of reference established at a known elevation which serves as basis in which other elevation or topographical point can be measured.

Therefore, when determining the benchmark, it's height is calculated relative to the vertical datum of the area, typically mean sea level, which is then recorded in FEET ABOVE SEA LEVEL.

Hence, Benchmarks measurements refer to FEET ABOVE SEA LEVEL.

There are 158 students registered for American History classes. There are twice as many students registered in second period as

Margarita [4]

There are 28 students in first period and 56 students in sceond period and 74 students in third period

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Let the number of students in first period be "x"

Let the number of students in second period be "y"

Let the number of students in third period be "z"

<em><u>There are 158 students registered for American History classes.</u></em>

Therefore,

x + y + z = 158 ---------- eqn 1

<em><u>There are twice as many students registered in second period as first period</u></em>

number of students in second period = twice of number of students in first period

y = 2x ------- eqn 2

<em><u>There are 10 less than three times as many students in third period as in first period</u></em>

number of students in third period = 3 times number of students in first period - 10

z = 3x - 10 ------ eqn 3

<em><u>Substitute eqn 2 and eqn 3 in eqn 1</u></em>

x + 2x + 3x - 10 = 158

6x = 168

<em><u>Substitute x = 28 in eqn 2</u></em>

y = 2(28)

<em><u>Substitute x = 28 in eqn 3</u></em>

z = 3(28) - 10

z = 84 - 10

Thus there are 28 students in first period and 56 students in sceond period and 74 students in third period
