Answer:
3 x 3 =9
Step-by-step explanation:
9
First calculate the distance covered going down:
d_down = (16 m / s) * 8 s = 128 m
Then the distance going up is:
d_up = 71 m
So the distance from the ledge to the nest is:
d = 128 m – 71 m = 57 m
Therefore the elevation is:
<span>elevation = 1364 m + 57 m = 1421 m</span>
The first answer is going to be 15.42 (so b) and the second is going to be 10.67 (so a)
5.3
or
5.4
or
5.48
Any of these is a rational number between 5.2 and 5.5.
