Complete question
mr. whittaker’s science class uses tide gauges to measure annual variations in water levels at different parts of a river, and then compares those variations to the average annual trend. matea recorded that the water level in one part of the river fell 1.05 millimeters per year for 2.48 years. this data will be compared to the average annual trend, which shows the water level rising 1.8 mm/year.
1) Which number represents the rate at which the water level fell?
a. -1.05 mm/year
b. -1.8 mm/year
c. -2.48 years
d. -2.48 mm/year
2) Which number should the rate be multiplied by to find the total variation in water level?
a. 1.05 mm/year
b. 1.8 mm/year
c. 2.48 years
d. 2.48 mm/year
Answer:
1) Which number represents the rate at which the water level fell?
a. -1.05 mm/year
2) Which number should the rate be multiplied by to find the total variation in water level?
c. 2.48 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Total Variation in the water level is calculated by multiplying the rate at which the water level and number or years at which the rate of the water level fell
From the question, we can see that the rate at which the water level fell is -1.05 mm/year and number of years at which the water level fell is 2.48mm
Hence,Total Variation in the water level is calculated as
-1.05 mm/year × 2.48 years
Total variation in the water level = -2.604mm
Answer:
17
Step-by-step explanation:
Do the exponent first, then subratct it to 81
Answer:
I think you wrote something wrong.
Step-by-step explanation:
If Alaina has $7 in her bank account and Joel had $48 in his Joel already has more then Alaina but I will attempt to teach you how to solve these types of problems.
for this example I'm giving Alaina 79 dollars.
First we know were starting with 79 dollars and increasing 6 dollars each day so the equation for this is; y = 6x + 79 that is Alaina's equation.
For Joel our equation will be; y = 8x + 48.
Since they already have 79 and 48 dollars in their bank we put those as our B in the equation cause they are our y-intercepts. (Y = mx + b) Next we know their increasing by 6 and 8 dollars a day so we make those our m. Once we have these equations we can plot them and see where the lines meet. (thats our answer) I plotted them on desmos graphing calculator.
They crossed at (15.5, 172) Which means it will take 16 days for Joel to catch up they will both have 172 dollars in the bank account on the 16th day.
Hope this helps!
