Answer:
Yes, the boats are safe to ride.
Step-by-step explanation:
40 (4) + 12 (2) ≤ 500
160 + 24 ≤ 500
184 ≤ 500
184 is less than 500.
because I was not sure if you had 9 adults instead of 2, this is the answer:
40 (4) + 12 (9) ≤ 500
160 + 108 ≤ 500
268 ≤ 500
268 is less than 500
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Without brackets, we are not exactly sure what is under the root sign. There are 3 choices.
sqrt(x) + 2 - 15 = - 3
sqrt(x + 2) - 15 = - 3
sqrt(x + 2 - 15) = - 3
I think the middle one is what you intend. If not leave a note.
sqrt(x + 2) - 15 = - 3 Add 15 to both sides.
sqrt(x + 2) - 15+15 = - 3+15 Combine
sqrt(x + 2) = 12 Square both sides
x + 2 = 12^2 Do the right
x + 2 = 144 Subtract 2 from both sides.
x + 2-2 = 144-2
x = 142
Answer: -231 ft
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
The submarine started at sea level = 0
It submerged 140 ft = -140 ft
It traveled 40 miles horizontally so it is still at -140 ft
It dove down an additional 120 ft = -260 ft <em>(-140 + -120)</em>
It traveled 25 miles horizontally so it is still at -260 ft
It rose 29 ft = -231 ft <em>(-260 + 29)</em>
Note: submerged and dove are negative values and rose is positive
0 - 140 - 120 + 29 = -231
