Answer:

The answer is -45.3 feet depth. while minus sign shows the descend under the water with water surface as starting point.

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial depth of diver under the water =-150feet

Diver descends 5 feet per minute for 3.5 minutes =3.5*(-5)

                                                                                =-17.5

Note: minus sign shows that the diver is under the water.

Diver ascends =122.2feet

Now adding all the terms a below as a numerical expression.

Current Depth of Diver after he descends 5 feet for 3.5 minutes and ascend 122.2 feet after  =-150-17.5+122.2

                           =45.3feet

By taking the initial depth of diver from which we add or subtract the changes made when he ascends or descends in the water to get the current depth.

Start at -150, then add 3(-5), then add 122.2. -150 + 3(-5) + 122.2 = -45.3

Find an equation of the line through (3,6) and parallel to y = 4x - 7.
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

y=4x-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, to do this we must understand what parallel means.

parallel means that that one line will NEVER touch the other. In order for this to happen they must be increasing (or decreasing) by the SAME rate. I.e the slope of your line must be the same as the lin in question thus our equation looks like,

y=4x+c.

Now lets find c.

To do this, plug the point (3,6) into the equation

6=4(3)+C

6=12+C

-6=C

Thus now that we know C, our equaiton is

y=4x-6

A car can travel 30 miles on a gallon of gas and had a 20 gallon gas tank. Let g be the number of gallons of gas the car has in
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

The domain is the number of gallons and the range is the distance traveled.

Since the car can travel 30 miles one gallon of gas, we multiply by 12 to get the distance the car can travel in 12 gallons of gas.
