Answer:

Option D is the correct choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are provided angle of elevations of two artifacts buried beneath the ground and we are asked to find distance between these two elevations.

We will find distance between these elevations by taking the difference of two.

35:\frac{4}{7}--8:\frac{2}{7}

35:\frac{4}{7}+8:\frac{2}{7}=43:\frac{6}{7}

Since we know that distance is always positive so option A is incorrect.

Therefore, option D is the correct choice and distance between these two elevations is 43:\frac{6}{7}.

Answer:

The correct option is D.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that an archaeologist discovered two artifacts buried beneath the ground.

Elevation of first artifact = -8\frac{2}{7}

Elevation of second artifact = 35\frac{4}{7}

We need to find the distance between these two elevations.

Distance = Elevation of first artifact - Elevation of second artifact

Distance=-8\frac{2}{7}-(35\frac{4}{7})

Distance=-(8+\frac{2}{7})-(35+\frac{4}{7})

Distance=-8-\frac{2}{7}-35-\frac{4}{7}

On further simplification we get

Distance=-43-\frac{6}{7}

Distance=-(43+\frac{6}{7})

Distance=-43\frac{6}{7}

Distance can not be negative. So, find the absolute value.

Distance=|-43\frac{6}{7}|

Distance=|43\frac{6}{7}|

Therefore, the correct option is D.

Solve 2x^2=11x+6 by factoring
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

(x-6) (2x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) move everything over to the left side, so subtract 11x and 6.

2x^2 -11x - 6 = 0

2)multiply 2(a term) with -6 (c term)

x^2 -11x -12

3) factor and find what multiples to -12 and adds up to -11. in this case its -12 and positive 1

(x-12) (x+1)

4) divide -12 and 1 by the original a term (2)

(x-6) (x+1/2)

5) move the denominator of 2 over to the x.

(x-6) (2x+1)

An honest coin is flipped 4 times. Given that the coin landed heads up more than two, what is the probability that it landed hea
arsen [322]

Answer:

probability of getting four head consecutively is 0.2

Step-by-step explanation:

in an experiment coin is flipped 4 times.

given,  coin landed heads up more than two times

outcomes of  coin landed heads up more than two times =

 SAMPLE SPACE :    [ {HHHT}{HHTH}{HTHH}{THHH}{HHHH} ]

chance of getting 4 heads = 1 (HHHH)

Probability = \dfrac{1}{5}

hence the probability of getting four head consecutively is 0.2
