Answer:

Part 1) The equation tells us that Terry started at an elevation of 2,600 ft

Part 2) The elevation is decreasing by 50 feet each second

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

E(t)=2,600-50t

where

E(t) is Terry's elevation in feet

t is the time in seconds

Part 1) Find the E intercept of the equation

The E-intercept is the value of E when the value of t is equal to zero

so

For t=0

substitute

E(0)=2,600-50(0)

E(0)=2,600\ ft

therefore

The equation tells us that Terry started at an elevation of 2,600 ft

Part 2) Find the slope of the equation

we have

E(t)=2,600-50t

This is the equation of the line into slope intercept form

The slope m is equal to

m=-50\ ft/sec

The slope is negative, because is decreasing

therefore

The elevation is decreasing by 50 feet each second

Solve for x in the diagram.
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

x° + 2x° + (x+10)° = 90°

3x° + x° + 10° = 90°

4x° + 10° = 90°

4x° = 90°-10°

4x° = 80°

x = 80/4

x = 20

she surveyed "x" amount, which is the 100%, but we also know that 180 is the 37.5%, so


\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} x&100\\ 180&37.5 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{x}{180}=\cfrac{100}{37.5}\implies 37.5x=18000 \\\\\\ x=\cfrac{18000}{37.5}\implies x=480
