<span>Evan rounded 4.8 down to 4. His estimate of 32 is too low.
I hope this helps, Good luck :)</span>
Answer:
The first submarine needs to travel at a rate of [-180 – (-1,320)] ÷ 60 = 19 feet per minute.
The second submarine needs to travel at a rate of [-180 – (-1,440)] ÷ 60 = 21 feet per minute.
21 – 19 = 2, so the second submarine must travel 2 feet per minute faster than the first sub.
The correct equation is 8.7 + b = 54.6
because it is given that measure of side a is 8.7cm, in all other equations the values of a is different.
from the first equation we can find the value of b, that is
b = 54.6 - 8.7 = 45.9
so, value of b is 45.9cm
