ng an altimeter to measure her elevation at different places in the valley. Vivian’s first ride was on the Ferris wheel. When she sat on the wheel at its lowest point, her altimeter read -9.6 feet. When she reached the top of the wheel, her altimeter read 12.3 feet.
Is the change in Vivian's elevation from the bottom of the Ferris wheel to the top a positive number or a negative number? Why?

A rectangular bedroom has an area of 117 ft. the length of the bedroom is 4ft more than the width. find the length and the width
MrMuchimi

Answer: Length = 13 ft. , Width = 9 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rectangle area = Length x width

Area = 117 ft.

Length = x + 4

Width = x

To solve

(x)(x + 4) = 117

x^2 + 4x = 117

x^2 + 4x - 117 = 0

(x - 9)(x + 13)

x = 9, -13

x = 9 <em>(measurement cannot be negative)</em>

Length

x + 4

9 + 4 = 13

In triangle ABC, the measure of angle B is 50 degrees. Select all possible values for the measures of A and C if ABC is an acute
galben [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of angle in a triangle = 180°

<A+<B+<C = 180

Given <B = 50°

Substituting into the formula

<A+50+<C = 180

<A+<C = 180-50

<A+<C = 130°

Since the ∆ABC is an acute triangle, the angles <A and <C must be angles less than 90° since acute angles are angles less than 90°

The possible values of <A and <C that will be acute and give a sum of 130° are;

∠A= 58° and ∠C= 72°

∠A= 80° and ∠C= 50°

∠A= 60° and ∠C= 70°

You can see that all the Angles are less than 90° and their sum is 130°
