show me a example please
Step-by-step explanation:

The elevations of four points below sea level are -47 feet, -24 feet, -8 feet, and -18 feet.
The elevation of the point closest to sea level is feet
-8 ft
elevation of the point farthest from sea level is feet.
-47 ft
closet to sea level to farthest to sea level
-8ft , -18ft , -24ft , -47ft
The shortest distance they have to travel to return to their starting point is 9.4 miles.
Explanation
The joggers run 8 mile north and then runs 5 miles west. we have to calculate the shortest distance they have to travel to return to their starting point.
The distance traveled north and west respectively makes the height and base of a right angled triangle.
to find the shortest distance to the starting point, the hypotenuse has to be determined.
height h=8 miles
base b=5 miles
using pythagoras theorem
The shortest distance to the starting point is 9.4 miles
The common ratio of the sequence is calculated by dividing the second term by the first term or dividing the third term by the second term. That is,
r = 250 / 333 = 0.75
or r = 187 / 250 = 0.748 = 0.75
To get the next term, we multiply 187 by 0.75 giving us an answer of 140.25 or 141.
Answer:
43.16 mg
Step-by-step explanation:
After each hour, the amount remaining is 100% - 12% = 0.88 times the amount present at the beginning of the hour. Then after 8 hours, the amount remaining will be the initial amount multiplied by 0.88 eight times, or ...
(120 mg)·(0.88^8) ≈ 43.1561 mg ≈ 43.16 mg

Of course, an exponent is used to signify repeated multiplication. You can actually do the multiplication if you like, but most scientific and graphing calculators handle exponentiation easily.
