Mr. West is standing on a cliff that is 25 1/5meters above the surface of the ocean. He spots a dolphin that is 2 3/5 meters und

zhenek [66]

Answer:

Total distance from Mr. West to dolphin $=27\frac{4}{5}\ meters$

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of cliff on which Mr. West is standing above the surface of ocean = $25 \frac{1}{5} \ meters$

Mr. West spot the dolphin under the water at a depth of = $2\frac{3}{5} \ meters$

∴ Total distance from Mr. West to dolphin= $(25 \frac{1}{5}+2\frac{3}{5})\ meters$

Adding mixed numbers

$(25 \frac{1}{5}+2\frac{3}{5})$

Adding whole numbers first.

$=25+2+\frac{1}{5}+\frac{3}{5}\\=27+\frac{1}{5}+\frac{3}{5}$

Adding fractions by taking LCD.

$=27+\frac{1+3}{5}\\=27+\frac{4}{5}\\=27\frac{4}{5}\ meters$

One solution to a quadratic function, h, is given.

Margaret [11]

Answer:

B. The other solution to function $h$ is $-4-i\,7$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

From Algebra, we remember that quadratic functions of the form $a\cdot x^{2}+b\cdot x + c$ has solutions of the form:

$x = \frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4\cdot a\cdot c}}{2\cdot a}$ , where both are complex if and only if $\sqrt{b^{2}-4\cdot a \cdot c}< 0$ .

Hence, if one solution of the quadratic function is $-4+i\,7$ , then the other solution is $-4-i\,7$ . The correct answer is B.
