An island has some portion submerged in water. Point X on the island is at negative 9 over 2 feet from the surface of the sea. P

oint Y on the island is at negative 4 over 3 feet from the surface of the sea. Because negative 4 over 3 feet > negative 9 over 2 feet, what is true about the distance of the two points from the surface of the sea?

Answer:

Point X is in more depth than the point Y.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that An island has some portion submerged in water.

Point X on the island is at distance from the surface of the sea=-\frac{9}{2}feet

Point Y on the island is at distance from the  surface of the sea=-\farc{4}{3}feet

We know if we move from left to right on the left of zero on number line then the value decreases.

We are given that -\frac{4}{3}>-\frac{9}{2}

The distance of point X from the surface of the sea=-\frac{4}{3}=-1.33 feet

The distance of point Y from the surface of the sea=\frac{9}{2}=-4.5 feet

The two distance of two points measure from the surface of the sea. It means the two points is present in water.

When we go in water then the distance measure in negative. Therefore, the point is more deepest than the point Y.

Hence, we can say point X is in more depth than the point Y in the sea.

Nuetrik [128]
2.52 pounds + 1.26 pounds = 3.78 pounds of salad ÷ 18 people = .21 pounds of salad per person

you add the pounds because that is everything she used to make the salad. then you divide by 18 because there are 18 people eating the salad and everyone gets exactly the same amount. Hope this helps :) this should help if you have more questions like this :)
(x pounds + y pounds = total pounds, total pounds ÷ # of people = pounds per person)

If f(x) is an even function and (6, 8) is one the points on the graph of f(x), which reason explains why (–6, 8) must also be a
Vikki [24]

If f(x) is an even function, then f(x)=f(-x). In this case, f(6)=8=f(-6).


This is because an even function is symmetric about the y-axis. Hence the outputs of a negative x-value and a positive x-value are the same.


The correct option is the first option.

Since the graph is even, the outputs of a negative x-value and a positive x-value are the same.
