Answer:

A. The difference in height between the pelican and the heron is -33 feet.

E. The difference in height between the pelican and the trout is 40 feet.

F. The distance between the heights of the pelican and the trout is 40 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3> The missing statements are:</h3><h3> A. The difference in height between the pelican and the heron is -33 feet</h3><h3> B. The difference in height between the pelican and the heron is 33 feet</h3><h3> C. The distance between the heights of the pelican and heron is -33 feet</h3><h3> D. The difference in height between the pelican and the trout is -40 feet</h3><h3> E. The difference in height between the pelican and the trout is 40 feet</h3><h3> F. The distance between the heights of the pelican and the trout is 40 feet.</h3><h3 />

Let be 0 the sea level.

Since the heron is perched in a tree 50 feet above sea level and directly below the heron the  pelican is flying 17 feet above sea level, you can find the difference in height between the pelican and the heron by subtracting 50 feet from 17 feet.

Then, you get that this is:

17\ feet-50\ feet=-33\ feet

Now, according the the information given in the exercise, you know that the trough is swimming directly below them and its height is 23 feet below sea level. If you represent this with an integer, this is:

-23

Therefore you can find the difference in height between the pelican and the trout through the following subtraction:

17\ feet-(-23\ feet)=17\ feet+23\ feet=40\ feet

And the distance between them is 40 feet too.

Using elimination method, what will be the value of y after solving -x - y = 5 and -x + 4y = 15?

Answer:

  y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The variable x can be eliminated by subtracting the first equation from the second.

  (-x +4y) -(-x -y) = (15) -(5)

  5y = 10 . . . . . . . simplify

  y = 2 . . . . . . . . . divide by 5

Pweaseee help!!!!!!!!!!!!!​
juin [17]

Answer:

Andre.

Step-by-step explanation:

Andre's group was asked to write an expression equivalent to 5p²q + 7pq² - 10.

Andre gives the expression 7p²q + 7pq² - 1 - 2p²q - 9, which gives the expression 5p²q + 7pq² - 10.

Jill gives the expression 5p²q + 2 pq² - 6 + 5pq² - 3, which does not give the expression 5p²q + 7pq² - 10.

Now, Anuj gives the expression 4p²q + 7pq²- 7 + 2p²q - 3, which also does not give the expression 5p²q + 7pq² - 10.

Again, Marsha gives the expression 5p²q + 5 pq²- 10 + 3pq², which also does not gives the expression 5p²q + 7pq² - 10.

Hence, only Andre gives the correct expression. (Answer)
