Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

At sea level, elevation is 0. This means that we can portray sea level as being the midpoint of distances below sea level and distances above sea level.

Thus, a distance of 1 m below sea level = - 1 is equivalent to a distance of 1 m above sea level albeit in opposite directions.

Hence, an elevation of 15m above sea level is greater in distance Than an elevation of - 10 m below sea level because the absolute value of 15 is greater than the absolute value of 10.

|15 - 0|= 15

|-10 - 0| = 10

Hence, elevation of - 10 below Sea level is closer to sea level than elevation of 15 above sea level

The excluded values of a rational expression are 2 and 5. Which of the following could be this expression?
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

You have not added the options, therefore, I cannot provide an exact answer. However, I can help you with the concept.

In any fraction, the denominator cannot be equal to zero because this would make the fraction undefined.

Excluded values are the values that would make the denominator equal to zero.

We are given that the excluded values are 2 and 5, this means that the factors of the denominator are (x-2) and (x-5)

This means that the denominator is x² - 7x + 10

Pick the fraction which has this denominator.

Hope this helps :)

Y= 2x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

line equation is y=mx +c


m is the gradient = 2

We are given an x and y value

X= 1
y= 4

4= 2(1) +c

2=c


Put all the equation together:

Y= 2x+2
