First day
ok so 4 inches up means 4 iches above the bottom, 10% of 4 is 0.4, and 4-0.4=3.6

second day
3.6+4=7.6, now 10% of that is 0.76, 7.6-0.76=6.84

third day
6.84+4=10.84, 10% of 10.84 is 1.084, 10.84-1.084=9.756

fourth day, at begining is at the end of third

worm is 9.756 in above the bottom of hole
20-heightup=height from top
20-9.756=10.224

answer is 10.224 inches from top

Paula is located at a position of −12 feet relative to the ground. Which statement shows the distance she is from ground level?
Greeley [361]

The absolute value of a number is the distance from point to the origin. Since Paula is located at a position of −12 feet relative to the ground, then the distance from point -12 on the number line to the origin is 12 (distance cannot be negative).

Thus, |-12|=12 and Paula is at a distance of 12 feet.

Answer: correct choice is C

Softa [21]

Answer:

y = 17x - 55

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert the coordinates in point-slope form:

y + 4 = 17(x -3)

y + 4 = 17x - 51

Subtract 4 in both sides:

y = 17x - 55
