Chandler is on a hike in the woods. He has an altimeter with him, and Chandler uses it to measure his height above sea level at

various points in his hike. He starts out at 120.4 meters above sea level, then hikes up an additional 850.0 meters to the crest of a hill. Chandler takes a break, then hikes down into a valley that is 430.7 meters below the crest. How far above sea level, in meters, is Chandler when he is in the valley?

Answer:

539.7 meters above sea level.

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay in order to solve this problem we can take it one step at a time. First, he starts at an altitude of 120.4 meters above sea level.

Then he hikes up an additional (meaning we add) 850.0 meters.

120.4 + 850.0 = 970.4

Next, Chandler hikes down (meaning we subtract) 430.7 meters.

970.4 - 430.7 = 539.7

Therefore, we can see that when Chandler is in the valley he is at an altitude of 539.7 meters above sea level.

a square red rug has a purple square in the center. the side length of the purple square is x inches. the width of the red band
Bumek [7]

Answer:

Area of red band is (20x + 100) inch^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that area of square = side^{2}

Please refer to the attached figure, we have to calculate the area of red band.

Required area = Area of square <em>ABCD </em>- Area of <em>purple square </em>

Side of purple square = x

So, area of purple square = x^{2}

<em>ABCD </em>is a square with purple square at the center and there is symmetry in the figure.

So, width of red band towards both the end is 5 inches.

\Rightarrow \text{side of }ABCD = 5 + 5 +x = (x+10) inches

Required area = (x+10)^{2} - x^{2}

Using formula a^{2} - b^{2} = (a-b)\times (a+b)

\Rightarrow (x+10-x)(x+10+x)\\\Rightarrow (10)(2x+10)\\\Rightarrow (20x+100)

Hence, Area of red band is (20x + 100) inch^{2}

Can someone show me how to multiply binomials pleaseeee?
Mama L [17]

Answer:

Okay so for this you will use the FOIL (first, outer, inner, last) method.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, first you take the x from (x-3) and multiply it by the x in (x-4).

So, now you have x^2

Then you do the outer which would be x multiplied by 4.

Now you have -4x.

Then you multiply the inner which is -3 times x.

Which is -3x.

Now its the last which is -3 times -4 which equals 12.  

Now you put them in order:


x^2 - 4x - 3x + 12

Lastly, you combine like terms:

x^2 -1 + 12

Challenge  A bag contains​ pennies, nickels,​ dimes, and quarters. There are 50 coins in all. Of the​ coins, ​% are pennies and
Semmy [17]

Answer:

.

10% of 50 coins is/are 5 coins.  So, 5 coins are pennies.

40% of 50 coins is/are 20 coins.  So, 20 coins are dimes.

The number of nickels is  (5 + 9) = 14, according to the condition.

Then quarters are the rest (50 - 5 - 20 - 14) = 11 coins.

Now you can easily calculate the total and answer the question

   Total = 5*1 + 14*5 + 20*10 + 11*25 = 550 cents = $5.50.     ANSWER
