Answer:

-10 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

I represent "below sea level" as negative numbers, so 25 ft below sea level would be a -25 ft. Since the diver swims up, or increases by 15 ft, I'd add that.

-25 + 15 = - 10

I hope this helped!

Since “below sea level” equals negative so -25+15 equals -10

Which equation below would be parallel to the line y= 2x+5 and pass through the point (3,1)

ki77a [65]

The answer is A, first the question said parallel so it should have same gradient and the gradient of the equation is 2 So eliminate D and bring (3,1) in each of the last three equation, and you will find just A conformed

I just need examples of these things, I have to make my own problems and solve them:

poizon [28]

1) x+17=20
x-10=30

2) x/4=20
x/30=2

3) 4(x+5)=40

4) x+3.2=6

5) A pizza place sells pizza for $5 per box. If I had $20 how many pizzas can I buy in all? (5x=20)

Hope this helps! Have a wonderful day.

Lines a and b are parallel.

VashaNatasha [74]

I have added a screenshot with the complete question along with a diagram representing the scenario.

Answer:
s = 22°

Explanation:
1- getting the top right angle of line B:
We are given that:
the top right angle of line A = 158°
Since lines A and B are parallel, therefore, the top right angle of line A and the top right angle of line B are corresponding angles which means that they are equal
This means that:
Top right angle of line B = 158°

2- getting the value of s:
Now, taking a look at line B, we can note that:
angle s and the top right angle form a straight angle. This means that the sum of these two angles is 180°
Therefore:
180 = s + 158
s = 180 - 158
s = 22°

Hope this helps :)
