Let's plug in what x =, y-3 into 2x+y=12
2 (y-3)+y=12
distribute 2 to both y and -3
2y-6+y=12
add all ys
3y-6=12
+6 both sides
3y=18
÷3 both sides
y=6
plug in y into x=y-3 to find x
x=6-3
x=3
Some ways you can make the number 2 are
Population. Population is the amount of whatever is inisde
Answer:
- 12 meters
28 meters
40 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
A fish is 12 meters below the surface of the ocean. What is its elevation?
Position of fish = 12 meters below the surface = - 12 ;
Sea level = 0
Elevation = sea level + position
Elevation = 0 + (- 12)
= - 12 meters
2. A sea bird is 28 meters above the surface of the ocean. What is its elevation?
Position of bird = 28 meters below the surface = (28) ;
Sea level = 0
Elevation = sea level + position
Elevation = 0 + 28
= 28 meters
3. If the bird is directly above the fish, how far apart are they?
If bird is directly above the fish;
Distance between bird and fish :
Elevation of bird - elevation of fish
28 - (-12)
28 + 12
= 40 Meters
Multiplying-
Negative times negative is positive
negative times positive is negative
positive times positive is positive
Dividing-
positive divided by positive is positive
negative divided by positive is negative
positive divided by negative is negative
negative divided by negative is positive
