During a scuba dive, Lainey descended to a point 20 feet below the ocean surface. She continued her descent at a rate of 20 feet

per minute. Write an inequality you could solve to find the number of minutes she can continue to descend if she does not want to reach a point more than 100 feet below the ocean surface.

Answer:

We know that she first descends 20 feet, and then she descends at a rate of 20 feet per minute. Basically, we have 20 feet which have to me summed with 20x, which expresses the ratio per minute, where x is minutes, and these terms cannot be more than 100 feet, so there are equal or less than 100 feet,

The expression would be:

20+20x\leq 100

If we solve this, we have

20+20x\leq 100\\20x\leq 100-20\\x\leq \frac{80}{20}\\ x\leq 4

Therefore, she cannot descent for more than 4 minutes.

Gwar [14]

Answer:

approximately 21, when rounded to nearest tenth.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's find the measure of angle BAD. Angles BAD and DAC add up to 180 degrees, so 180-57= 123 degrees. Now, let's find the circumference of the circle. The circumference is diameter * π, which is 19.6(π). Then, the ratio is 123/360, so multiply 19.6(π) by 123/360, and you get 21.0381988...... which simplifies to 21 (rounded to nearest tenth)
