Answer: a) 5562 feet b) 0 feet

Step-by-Step explanation:

Since we have given that

Length of city above sea level = 5280 feet

Elevation of death valley = -282 feet

A) how many feet higher is denver than death valley?.

Difference between both the elevation is given by

5280-(-282)\\\\=5280+282\\\\=5562\ feet

B. what would your elevation be if you were standing near the ocean?

If he were standing near the ocean, then the elevation would be 0 feet.

Hence, a) 5562 feet b) 0 feet

A. Note that you are subtracting 5280 with -282

5280 - (-282) = 5280 + 282 = 5562

Denver is 5562 feet taller than death valley

B. your elevation should be ~ 0 feet if you are standing near the ocean, for ocean level is 0 feet.

hoa [83]

Answer:

0.999

Step-by-step explanation:

At least 1 correct means, 1 correct, 2 correct, 3 correct ... until 10 correct. That would be a long process to calculate.

<em>Instead we use the complement rule to calculate.</em>

<em>P(x\geq1)=1-P(x</em>

<em />

<em>So we need to find P(x<1). So this is getting 0 answers correct, or 10 incorrect.</em>

<em />

In true false question, probablity of correct is 1/2 and incorrect is 1/2, hence,

Probability of 10 incorrect is (1/2)^10

Thus,

P(x\geq1)=1-(\frac{1}{2})^{10}=0.999

So the answer is 0.999 (rounded to nearest thousandth)
