let's firstly convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions and then add.

Answer:
a person travel 50 ft from the bottom to the top of the escalator
Step-by-step explanation:
An escalator lifts people to the second floor of a building, 25 ft above the first floor. The escalator rises at a 30 degree angle
The escalator forms a right angle triangle
opposite to 30 degree angle is 25 feet. to find the distance from the bottom to the top of the escalator we find the hypotenuse
let x be the hypotenuse


a person travel 50 ft from the bottom to the top of the escalator
First you would divide $3532.50 by 2 which would equal $1766.25.
The you would add $225.75 to $1766.25 which equals $1982.
The Friday had $1540.50 taken in & the Sunday game had $1982 taken in.
Younger than = less than
Less than symbol = <
People cannot have a negative age, so a must be positive
B. <span>a < 18 and a must be a positive number</span>
Hi there!

We can find the range using completing the square:
y = -x² - 2x + 8
Factor out a -1:
y = -(x² + 2x) + 8
Use the first two terms. Take the second term's coefficient, divide by 2, and square:
y = -(x² + 2x + 1) + 8
Remember to add by 1 because we cannot randomly add an additional number into the equation:
y = -(x² + 2x + 1) + 8 + 1
Simplify:
y = -(x + 1)² + 9
Since the graph opens downward (negative coefficient), the range is (-∞, 9)
