( please help I really need it )Joan represents the height at which a sea gull is flying at +4 feet and the depth at which a fis

h is swimming at −3 feet on a number line, where 0 represents the surface of the water. Which of these explains whether the sea gull or the fish is closer to the surface of the water?
The fish is closer to the surface of the water because |+4| = 4 and |−3| = 3, and 3 < 4.


The fish is closer to the surface of the water because |+4| = 4 and − |−3| = −3, and −3 < 4.


The sea gull is closer to the surface of the water because |+4| = −4 and |−3| = −3, and −3 > −4.


The sea gull is closer to the surface of the water because |+4| = 4 and − |−3| = 3, and 4 > 3.

Answer:

The fish is closer to the surface of the water because |+4| = 4 and |−3| = 3, and 3 < 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is this because they are finding the absolute value. Because 3 is less than 4, that means that it isn't as far away from zero on the number line. This is the only answer where the absolute value and the object is correct.

What is the value of y?
aleksklad [387]

The sum of all the angles of a triangle is 180 degrees. To solve for y you can make a formula of the sum of the angles equal to 180 like so...

y + y + 60 = 180

Now you must combine like terms. This means that first numbers with the same variables (y) must be combined...

y + y + 60 = 180

y + y = 2y

2y + 60 = 180

Now bring 60 to the left side by subtracting 60 to both sides (what you do on one side you must do to the other). Since 60 is being added on the left side, subtraction (the opposite of addition) will cancel it out (make it zero) from the left side and bring it over to the right side.

2y + 60 - 60 = 180 - 60

2y + 0 = 120

2y = 120

Next divide 2 to both sides to finish isolating y. Since 2 is being multiplied by y, division (the opposite of multiplication) will cancel 2 out (in this case it will make 2 one) from the left side and bring it over to the right side.

2y / 2 = 120 / 2

y = 60

C. 60

Hope this helped!
