A gold mine has two elevators one for equipment and another for miners. The elevator for the miners descends 13 feet per second.

The elevator for the miners descends 13 feet per second. One day the equipment elevator begins to descend. After 18 seconds the elevator for the miners begins to descend. What is the position of each elevator relative to the surface after another 19 seconds? At that time, which elevator is deeper?

Answer:

The equipment elevator is positioned 481 feet closer and the miner equipment is positioned 342 feet closer relative to the surface. The equipment elevator is deeper.

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate that both elevators descend are the same according to the information given in the question.

After 18 seconds, the equipment elevator has descended 18 x 13 = 234 feet.

After another 19 seconds, the equipment elevator has descended for a total of 37 seconds which results in 481 feet and the miner elevator has descended for 19 seconds which gives us a descend of 342 feet.

So they are 481 and 342 feet closer relative to the surface and the equipment elevator is deeper since it has descended for a longer period of time.

I hope this answer helps.

Please help me answer this question!!!
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

19

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle is an isosceles and so angle SRT and angle STR are equal

also:

Angle SRT and angle STU are supplementary so their sum is equal to 180

7x + 2x + 9 = 180 add like terms

9x + 9 = 180 subtract 9 from both sides

9x = 171 divide both sides by 9

x = 19
