Answer: Hi!
So first, I'm going to convert "350 below ground level" to -350, as this is what "below ground level" represents.
Now, we should find the total distance traveled. Take the absolute value of -350 (350) and add it to 10, the metres above ground level. This is 360.
We already know the rate of travel; 6m/min. All we have to do now is divide the total distance (360) by the rate of travel (6)!
360 ÷ 6 = 60
So, it took 60 minutes, or one hour, for the elevator to travel down the shaft!
Hope this helps!
ok so u need to find the gcd and then subtract.
The correct answer is 4.8 hours
Explanation:
This mathematical problem can be solved by using the rule of three, which involves finding an unknown value by using three related values. The process is shown below:
1. It is known a fully charged battery (100% battery) lasts 16 hours. This can be represented as 100 = 16. But it is not know how much a 30% battery last; this can be represented as 30 = x.
2. Write all the values
100 = 16
30 = x
3. Cross multiply to create an equation and solve the equation
100 x = 48
x = 480 / 100
x = 4.8
Use the conditional probability formula, P(a|b) = P(a and b)/P(b)
