The altitude is 177 feet below sea level after being lowered.

The balloon rises 120 feet after 12 seconds and then is dropped 15 feet. So 120 - 15 = 105. And 282 - 105 = 177

Find the length of x
zaharov [31]

Answer:

The answer is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypotenuses of the triangles are different. One is 4 and the other is 5.

Lets use ratios to find the relationship of the hypotenuse and the base.

2.5:5

Turn this into a fraction

2.5/5

Now divide

2.5/5 = 0.5

The base of the triangle is half the length of the hypotenuse.

So 4 is x’s hypotenuse so:

4 x 0.5 = 2

X = 2

HELP ASAP PLS.
Sindrei [870]

Step-by-step explanation:

I have no idea if I'm doing it right but my guess would be to take the values that we get from f(x) and g(x) when x = 1.  Therefore we get that f(x) is equal to 4 and g(x) is equal to -1.  We than just do f/g which is 4/-1 which gives us the final answer of -4 which is option B.

Answer:  Option B, -4
