Answer:

a. - 45 feet

b. - 18 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we consider the water level as the reference level then the elevation of the fish is - 27 feet, i.e. the fish is 27 feet below the water level.

a. Now, the fish decreases its elevation by 32 feet and then increases its elevation by 14 feet.

Therefore, the new elevation of the fish is (- 27 - 32 + 14) = - 45 feet.

b. Now, if my elevation is \frac{2}{5} of the new elevation of the fish then my elevation will be = - 45 \times \frac{2}{5} = - 18 feet. (Answer)

The temperature dropped 5 degrees every hour during 8 hours. How much the temperature drop in all?
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

<h3>40 degrees</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

If the temperature dropped 5 degrees every hour, this can be expressed as;

5 degree = 1 hour

To get the total number of degree dropped fro 8hours, we will say;

x degree = 8hours where x is the temperature drop in all

Solving both equality

5 degree = 1 hour

x degree = 8 hours

cross multiply

x * 1 = 5 * 8

x = 40 degrees

<em>Hence the total temperature drop in all is 40°</em>
