Answer:

7.65 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the distance that diver will travel.  

We have been given that a scuba diver is exploring at an elevation of -12.2 meters. As the diver rises to the surface, she plans to stop and rest briefly at a reef that has an elevation of -4.55 meters. We are asked to find the distance that diver will travel.

The initial elevation plus x will be equal to -4.55 meters. We can represent our given information in an equation as:

-12.2+x=-4.55

-12.2+12.2+x=-4.55+12.2

x=7.65

Therefore, the scuba diver will travel a vertical distance of 7.65 meters.

And -2/3 into decimal form is -0.6666

olya-2409 [2.1K]
Let x be the number of CDs we buy and y the number of CDs we sell. 
Each CD sell for $1.5, then the total of money we earn is $1.5y.
Each CD bought for $5, then the total money spent is $-5x
Add the above values like this:
1.5y-5x
We have $20, add them like this:
1.5y-5x+20
Since we want to have<span> at least $10 left when you leave the store, then 
we deduce the equation:
</span>1.5y-5x+20\leq 10
