Step-by-step explanation:

Time for equipment elevator = 11 seconds + 27 seconds = 38

Time for elevator for miners = 27 seconds

Speed of equipment Elevator = 7 feet/ sec

Speed of Miner elevator = 16 feet/ sec

Distance traveled by Equipment Elevator = Speed * time

                                               =  7 * 38 = 266

Distance traveled by Miner Elevator = Speed * time

                                                = 16 * 11 = 176

266 > 176

Therefore, The Equipment Elevator is deeper than the Miner Elevator

Depth of Equipment Elevator = 266m

Depth of Miner Elevator = 176m

zubka84 [21]

Using the combination formula, it is found that she can shoot the ducks in 120 ways.

<h3>What is the combination formula?</h3>

C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by:

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

In this problem, 3 ducks will be shoot from a set of 10, hence:

C_{10,3} = \frac{10!}{3!(10-3)!} = 120

Thus, she can shoot the ducks in 120 ways.

Then subtract. Professional- DIY. 570-479=91. 

$91 is about 2 months worth of work. So a year has 12 months.
