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?

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.


hope this helps

At homecoming, 125 tickets where sold. Tickets purchased for homecoming cost $20.5 without an activity card, and $15.75 with an
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

Nearly 83 students did not had activity card.

Nearly 42 students had an activity card.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of tickets sold at homecoming = 125

Cost of each  ticket without activity card = $20.5

Cost of each  ticket with activity card = $15.75

Total amount earned  = $2365

Let, the number of tickets sold without activity car d  = k

So, the number of tickets sold without card = (Total sold - k)

                                                                          = 125 - k

Now, according to the question:

$20.5(k) + $15.75(125 - k)  =  $2365

or, 20.5 k + 1968.5 - 15.75 k = 2365

⇒ 4.75 k = 2365 - 1968.5 = 396.5

⇒ k = \frac{396.5}{4.75 }  = 83.47

Hence, nearly 83 students did not had activity card.

So,the number of students that had activity card = 125 - 83.47 = 41.53 ~  42

Hence, nearly 42 students had an activity card.

Horizontal asymptote
vodomira [7]

Answer:

H.A.=4

Step-by-step explanation:

If the bottom equation is factored, you get (x+1)(x-4)

If the V.A. is -1 ( gotten by putting [x+1] equal to zero I'm guessing) then the H.A. can be gotten by putting (x-4) equal to zero.

Also, I graphed it.
