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.

She can descend five minutes so that should help

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.

kondor19780726 [428]
(6-x)=24

X=-18

If you subtract a negative number with a positive number it adds them together making it positive (6- -18)=24

The slope of the line whose equation is 3x - 2y = 4 is 2/3 3/2 -2
alexandr1967 [171]
Solve for "y" and you get y=3x/2-2 and the equation for a line is y= mx+b, I mean the slope is the number which companion the "x" in the line equation, so the slope in your problem is 3/2
