I don’t know but i need points
Answer:
Her initial position was:
-29ft
Where we use the minus sign because this is below the ocean's surface.
Now we also know that she keeps descending at a rate of -29ft per minute, then if she keeps descending for t minutes, her position will be:
P(x) = -29ft - 29ft/min*t
Now, we also know that she does not want to descend more than 81ft below the ocean's surface, then we have the inequality:
P(x) ≥ -81ft
-29ft - 29ft/min*t ≥ -81ft
Now let's isolate t in one side:
- 29ft/min*t ≥ -81ft + 29ft = -52 ft
- 29ft/min*t ≥-52 ft
t ≤ -52ft/(- 29ft/min) = 1.79 min
Then the maximum amount of time that she can keep descending is 1.79 minutes.
The answer to this question is D ( $0.18 ) per ounce:-)
We know that 1 lb = 16 oz
So lets convert the 20 lb to oz and then compare the two quantities in consistent units.
If 1 lb = 16 oz then 20 lb are equal to 20*16 oz, that is
20 lb = 20*16 oz = 320 oz
therefore,
320 oz are greater than 272 oz, or,
20 lb are greater that 272 oz
B is the answer to the question
