A submarine cuts through the water at an elevation of 203 meters under the sea. The sub rises, and the elevation changes by 4.3

meters per minute for the first 15 minutes. The sub continues to rise at 5.2 meters per minute for the next 12 minutes. What is the elevation of the submarine after rising? Assume that sea level is at an elevation of 0 feet.

The answer is -76.1 meters.

The submarine elevation before rising is -203 meters (it is negative because it is under the sea level which has 0 elevation): d₁ = -203 m
After the first rising, it moved 64.5 m: l₁ = 4.3 · 15 = 64.5 m
After the second rising, it moved 62.4 m: l₂ = 5.2 · 12 = 62.4 m

So, to calculate the elevation of the submarine after rising (d₂), we will add (because it is not going deeper, it rises toward the elevation of 0) two movements to the elevation before rising:
d₂ = d₁ - (l₁ + l₂) = -203 + (64.5 + 62.4) = -203 + 126.9 = -203 + 126.9 = -76.1.

Please help me with this question it is due today! What value of m makes the system show perpendicular lines? Explain.
Lady bird [3.3K]
M = -2

In perpendicular lines, the slopes are opposite reciprocal. This means you flip the sign (from + to - or from - to +) and flip the numerator and denominator.

So 1/2 becomes negative, and 2/1 = 2

So the slope is -2

600+15y=750.<br> solve for y<br> can I as well have the way you solved for y?
Pie
1.)subtract 600 from 750 in order to simplify
2.)divide by 15 on both sides to get y alone. Doing this cancels the 15 on the y and makes the right side equal 10
3.)y=10
