Answer:

A. 14 meters

B. 24 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Mellisa starts at 29 meters deep, then rises 15 meters.  So her final depth is 29 − 15 = 14 meters.

B. Melissa starts at 40 meters deep, then rises 2 m/min for 8 minutes.  That means she rises a total distance of 2 × 8 = 16 meters.  So her final depth is 40 − 16 = 24 meters.

Answer:

At one point, Mellisa is 29 meters below the surface of the water.

A.

As she swims around for the fish, she swims for 12 mins and rises upward by 15 meters.

So, her final depth at the end of the 12 minutes = 29-15=14 meters

B.

Mellisa is at a depth of 40 meters. Every minute, she rises 2 meters.

So, in 8 minutes she will rise 2\times8=16 meters

Her depth will be = 40-16=24 meters

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

Jackson should work at least 8 hours this week to achieve his target.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jackson's hourly income = $25

His weekly spending budget = $130

Minimum amount to be pushed to the savings account = $50

So, minimum total amount Jackson should earn this week = 130 + 50 = 180

Number of hours to work this week = \frac{Minimum total amount}{hourly income}

= \frac{180}{25}

= 8 rounded to next integer

Hence, Jackson should work at least 8 hours this week to achieve his target.

Mice21 [21]

The correct answer is option B which is the actual product is about StartFraction 1 over 18 EndFraction less than the estimate.

<h3>What are fractions?</h3>

The fraction is defined as the division of the whole part into an equal number of parts. here we have the following information Vassil rounded to the nearest half to estimate the product of Five-eighths and StartFraction 8 over 9 EndFraction.

E =  \dfrac{5}{8}\times \dfrac{8}{9} = 0.55

Thus the product of the fraction estimated in the nearest half is,

0.5×1= 0.50

Therefore the correct answer is option B which is the actual product is about StartFraction 1 over 18 EndFraction less than the estimate.
