The height of Mountain P is 1,086 feet.The height of Mountain Q is 4 times the height of Mountain P.The area model shown below r
epresents one way to find the height of Mountain Q. What are missing values for a,b,c in the model?
1 answer:
Answer:
A=4000, B=80, C=24
Step-by-step explanation:
You forgot to put the correct area model, I attached it to the answer.
We have the fact that Mountain Q is 4 times the height of Mountain P. That's the "4" we have in the left side of our model. It's like having a multiplication table, next to the "4" we have "A" and upper this we have "1000", the only thing we have to do is multiplify 4*1000=4000. The next letter we have is B and below it we have "320", we divided it by 4, 320/4=80. The last letter we have is C, and is below a "6", we only have to multiplify it by 4, 6*4=24.
At the end we only sum our
- A + 320 + c = 4344 (4 times the height of Mountain P).
- 1000 + B + 6 = 1086(the height of the Mountain P).

Answer: 3, then 5/8, then, -2.9, and finally -4.
Step-by-step explanation:
3 is the biggest positive integer in value, so that one is automatically first.
5/8 is the second-biggest positive number in value. It isn't a full number, considering it is a fraction, but it is a positive number nonetheless so that makes it larger in value than the last two:
-2.9 is the third-largest integer in value, leaving -4 as the smallest number in this sequence. I know, I know, you're probably like "but 4 is bigger than 2.9." Let me explain the logistics behind this.
When figuring out which number is larger and which is smaller with negative integers, you go by how far they are from 0 on a number line. -2.9 is 2.9 places from zero on a number line. This is called absolute value. Absolute value is defined as "how far a number is on a number line from zero." The absolute value of -4 is 4. (Absolute value is ALWAYS positive). As you can see from this simple observation, -4 is farther from -2.9 on a number line and is therefore less than -2.9. Using the absolute values of negative integers, classifying them from least to greatest or greatest to least is fairly easy. Hopefully this helped. :)
