Answer: Bajo del Gualicho has a higher elevation than Lago Enriquillo.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since in this case the "elevations" are negative because are under sea level, we can call it depth.
In this sense, we are given the "elevations" or depths of two places:
Bajo del Gualicho: -72 m
Lago Enriquillo: -46 m
Keeping in mind we are actually talking about the depth of this places, we can say Bajo del Gualicho is deeper than Lago Enriquillo, and this is best expressed with the following inequality:
Where represents Bajo del Gualicho and
represents Lago Enriquillo.
the question in English
Juan has blue cubes with a 55 mm edge and red cubes with a 45 mm edge. He stacks them in two columns, one of each color; he wants the two columns to be the same height. How many cubes does he need, as a minimum, of each color?
Let
x---------> the number of blue cubes
y--------> the number of red cubes
we know that
Juan wants that the two columns to be the same height
so
solve for y
I proceed to calculate a table, assuming values of x to calculate the value of y. When the values of x and y are whole numbers, I will have found the solution.
the table in the attached figure
therefore
<u>the answer is</u>
9 blue cubes
11 red cubes
