Arranging the given distances from sea level on the number line, we have;
- The error made by taking Egypt as being further from the sea level is assuming that the sea level is at the beginning (left) of the number line.
<h3>How can the number line be used to find the distance from the sea level?</h3>
The given elevation of the lowest points in the six countries are;
Country. Lowest point elevation (m)
China. →. -154
Egypt →. -133
Azerbaijan → -28
Serbia. →. 35
Israel. → -408
Laos. →. 70
Sorting the above countries from the country with the lowest point below sea level to the country with the highest point above sea level gives;
Israel → -408
China → -154
Egypt → -133
Azerbaijan → -28
Serbia. → 35
Laos. →. 70
On a number line, we have;
Israel < China < Egypt < Azerbaijan < Serbia < Laos
Relative to zero, which is the sea level, points -133 and -154 are located to the left of zero.
However, point -133 > -154, therefore, -154 < -133, the symbol < represents lesser (in this case 'lower') which indicates that China (point -154) is lower or further left from zero which is the sea level than Egypt (point -133).
The error is therefore mistaking the location of the sea level as being at the extreme left of the number line, rather than at the middle.

Answer:
A.) 36
Step-by-step explanation:
For a perfect square trinomial, a = 1 b = 2x c = x². For an example, (x+3)² = x² + 6x + 9.
For this trinomial, divide "b" by 2 to get 6. Square this number and you will have 36.
x² + 12x + 36
4.5 cups to ounces is 36 fluid ounces.
(5, 90)
You can solve both equations for y and then set equal to each other. Then use the quadratic equation to solve for x
