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.

The measure of angle x is 18 more than 3 times the measure of its complement.
Alex
Complementary angles = two angles that add to 90° complement each other.


So, angle x = 3y+18
y= complementary angle
(3y + 18) + y =  90
4y+18 = 90
4y=72
y=18°

x= 3y+18
x= 3(18) +18
angle x = 72°

Which of the following functions represent exponential decay?
Nuetrik [128]

An exponential decay function goes down to the right, like in the picture attached.

An exponential function follows this format: y=ab^x, where b is less than 1 and more than 0. b is more than 0 but less than 1 in function A.
