Answer:

The submarine is 1100 feet below the sea level that is at -1100 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

A submarine was 200 feet below sea level.

Since the submarine was below the sea level we can write the position as -200 feet with respect to sea level.

It rose to the surface and then dove again to four times its initial depth.

-200 + 200 + 4(-200)\text{ feet}

The submarine then descended another 300 feet.

Total movement in submarine =

(-200 + 200 + 4(-200) - 300)\text{ feet}

1. Model for the given situation:

-200 + 200 + 4(-200)\text{ feet}

2. Evaluate the expression

-200 + 200 + 4(-200) + (-300) = -1100\text{ feet}

Thus, the submarine is 1100 feet below the sea level that is at -1100 feet.

A washer and dryer cost $803 combind the washer costs $47 less then the dryer whats is the cost of the dryer
Naddik [55]

Answer:

the dryer costs $425

Step-by-step explanation:

x = washer

y = dryer

x + y = 803

x = y - 47

using the second equation a substitute in the first equation we get

y - 47 + y = 803

2y = 850

y = $425

FYI

x = y - 47 = 425 - 47 = $378

Find the solution to the system of equations. 4x + 3y = –1 3x – 9y = 33
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 3y = -1         --------------(i)

3x - 9y = 33        -------------(ii)

multiply equation (i) by 3

(i)* 3     12x + 9y = -3

(ii)       <u>   3x - 9y = 33</u>

add,       15x = 30

                 x = 30/15

                 x = 2

Put x =2 in Equation (i)

4*2 + 3y = -1

8 +3y = -1

     3y = -1-8

     3y = -9

       y = -9/3

       y= -3

The sides OP and RO of triangle POR are produced to points S and T respectively. If ∠SPR = 145° and ∠POT = 115° , find ∠PRO
Margarita [4]

Answer:

\angle PRQ = 80

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\angle SPR = 145^o

\angle POT = 115^o

See attachment

Required

Find \angle PRO

First, calculate \angle RPO

\angle RPO + \angle SPR = 180 --- angle on a straight line

So, we have:

\angle RPO + 145 = 180

Collect like terms

\angle RPO = 180 - 145

\angle RPO = 35

Next, calculate PQR

\angle POR + \angle POT = 180

So, we have:

\angle POR + 115 = 180

Collect like terms

\angle POR = 180-115

\angle POR = 65

So, PRO is calculated as:

\angle PRO + \angle POR + \angle RPO = 180 --- angles in a triangle

So, we have:

\angle PRO + 65 + 35= 180

\angle PRO + 100= 180

Collect like terms

\angle PRO = 180-100

\angle PRO = 80
