Answer with explanation:

If Submarine position is 600 feet below sea level, it can be represented in terms of integers as = - 600

Now , it descends 218 feet ,from where it is presently Located.

Descend in terms of integers can be represented as = - 218 feet

Submarine New position or Elevation = - 600 feet + (-218 feet)

                                            = -818 feet

Option A : -818 feet

Answer: A) -818 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A submarine's position is 600 feet below sea level. It descends 218 feet.

Integers , we use negative (-) signs to represent below and descend .

Thus , in terms of integers

Initial position of submarine 600 feet below sea level= -600 feet

After descends 218 feet, the submarine's new elevation =

-600+(-218) feet

= -600-218 feet     [(+)(-)=(-)]

= -(600+218) feet = -818 feet    [-a-b=-(a+b)]

Hence, the submarine's new elevation = -818 feet

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Part A)

P=\$8,500\\ r=0.052\\n=4  

Part B) S(7)=\$12,203.47  

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that    

The compound interest formula is equal to  

S(t)=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}  

where  

S is the Future Value  

P is the Present Value  

r is the rate of interest  in decimal

t is Number of Time Periods  

n is the number of times interest is compounded per year

Part A)

in this problem we have  

P=\$8,500\\ r=5.2\%=5.2/100=0.052\\n=4  

Part B) How much money will Marcus have in the account in 7 years?

we have

t=7\ years\\ P=\$8,500\\ r=0.052\\n=4  

substitute in the formula above  

S(7)=8,500(1+\frac{0.052}{4})^{4*7}  

S(7)=8,500(1.013)^{28}  

S(7)=\$12,203.47

The taxi costs $2.25 for the first mile plus 15cents for each additional tenth of a mile. For a 5.2 mile trip, Eric payed $10 an
Verizon [17]
2.25 for the first mile. That leaves 4.2 miles.

4 * 0.1 = 0.4

0.15 * 4 = $6.00

0.15 * 2 = 0.3

$6.30 + $2.25 = $8.55

$10.00 - $8.55 = $1.45

The driver's tip was $1.45.
