Answer:
- 3000 feets
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Elevation at the summit of Mount Washington = 6288 ft
Elevation of Carter Notch Hut = 3,288 feets
The change of elevation in feets on the hike from summit to Carter Not hut:
Difference in elevation:
Summit at Mount Washington - Carter notch hut
6288 ft - 3288 ft
Change in elevation. = 3000 fts
Since the change decreased from 6288 to 3288, the elevation is downward and hence, negative = - 3000 feets
Answer:
(C) 4|5 -2x| > 68
Step-by-step explanation:
You can solve each of the inequalities to see if their solutions match the given numbers, or you can start with the given numbers and see what sort of inequality you end up with.
If you plot the given "solution" on a number line, you find that the numbers -6 and 11 are the same distance from x=2.5. That distance is 8.5 units. (One way to deterimine this is to average -6 and 11, then subtract that average from 11 to find the distance.
So, we can write an inequality describing values of x that are more than 8.5 units from 2.5:
|x -2.5| > 8.5
and it will have the solution x < -6 or x > 11.
Multiplying this by 2, it can become ...
|2x -5| > 17
Of course, since the absolute value function doesn't care whether its argument is positive or negative, we can also write this as ...
|5 -2x| > 17
This tells you right away which answer choice is appropriate. Further confirmation can be had by multiplying this by 4:
4|5 -2x| > 68 . . . . . . matches selection C
Your answer for your question is going to be.... um.... sorry I forgot
