9 meters

One way to find this would be to take the distance above sea level of one and subtract the distance above sea level of the other.

So with this you'd get 1 above sea level minus negative eight above sea level (which is 8 under sea level), so 1 - (-8) which is 1 + 8, which is 9.


However, the easier way to do this specific is to draw a line for sea level, draw a short line going above it to represent 1 meter, and draw a longer line under it to represent 8 meters, then find the difference between the diver and the captain by adding up the lengths

The average rate of change of <em>g(x)</em> over the interval [2, 8] is given by

(<em>g</em> (8) - <em>g</em> (2)) / (8 - 2)

In other words, it's the slope of the line through the points (2, <em>g</em> (2)) and (8, <em>g</em> (8)).

Use the definition of the function to evaluate it at the points in the numerator:

• 8 ≥ 4, so using the second piece, <em>g</em> (8) = -0.5(8) + 8 = 4

• 2 < 4, so <em>g</em> (2) = 5(2) + 1 = 11

Then the average rate of change is

(<em>g</em> (8) - <em>g</em> (2)) / (8 - 2) = (4 - 11) / 6 = -7/6

What is the solution to the equation below?<br> 12 + square root 1 - 5x = 18
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Square root 1 is 1. Add that to the 12 to get 13. Subtract 13 from both sides to get: -5x = 5. Divide both sides by -5 to get your answer: -1

Write an equation of the line that passes through the points (2,5), (0,5)​
KatRina [158]

Answer:

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

1. This line is horizontal, because the y-coordinate never changes.

2. The equation for a horizontal line is y = (y-coordinate)

3. The y-coordinate is always 5, so the equation is y = 5.
