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

Please help me! I really need someone to explain how to find the perimeter also. Thank you in advance!

andrezito [222]

You add all the sides together and divide by the number of side so in your case it would be 6 sides and you should get your perimeter i think thats how you do it i could be wrong

No the correct answer is c. If you use the formula
Y2- Y1
X2-X1
You could use this to find the slope. And then the y-intercept if any.

Jimmy's costume requires ⅞ + ½ + 1 3/4 yards of fabric. His sister's costume requires 3 x (⅞ + ½ + 1 ⅔) the amount of fabric tha

liq [111]

Answer:

The correct answer is fabric Jimmy's sister needs = $\frac{73}{8}$ × fabric Jimmy needs = $\frac{73}{8}$ × $\frac{25}{8}$ yards of fabric.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jimmy's costume requires ⅞ + ½ + 1 $\frac{3}{4}$ yards of fabric = $\frac{7}{8} +\frac{4}{8} + \frac{14}{8} = \frac{25}{8}$ yards.

His sister's costume requires 3 x (⅞ + ½ + 1 ⅔) the amount of fabric that Jimmy needs = 3× ( $\frac{21}{24} + \frac{12}{24} + \frac{40}{24}$ ) yards of what Jimmy needs = $\frac{73}{8}$ yards of what Jimmy needs.

The relationship between how much fabric Jimmy needs and how much fabric his sister needs is given by

Fabric Jimmy's sister needs = $\frac{73}{8}$ × fabric Jimmy needs = $\frac{73}{8}$ × $\frac{25}{8}$ yards of fabric.
