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

How to compare 2 5/9 and 21/3
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

2 5/9 is less than 21/3;  2 5/9 < 21/3

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Convert 2 5/9 into an improper fraction</u>

2 5/9 = 2 * 9/9 + 5/9 = 18/9 + 5/9 = 23/9

<u>Step 2:  Convert 21/3 so the denominator is 9</u>

21*3 / 3*3 = 63/9

<u>Step 3:  Compare</u>

<em>23/9 < 63/9</em>

<em />

Answer:  2 5/9 is less than 21/3;  2 5/9 < 21/3

Find the area of the circle with the given radius or diameter. Use pi = 3.14. d = 10 A =
labwork [276]

The formula in computing the area of the circle is:

A = pi (r)^2

Where r = the radius of the circle

Since you are only given the diameter of the circle, you have to solve for its radius. The radius of the circle is half its diameter. Therefore, the radius of the circle is 5 (10/2).

Now, you substitute the measurements to the formula:

A = 3.14 (5)^2

A = 3.14 (25)

A = 78.5 sq. units

Pls answer<br><br> Y’all are awesome thx
Vilka [71]

Answer: 12a.) slope is 125, y-intercept is 50 (started at 50 ft)

12b.) f(3) = 425 feet

12c.) 3.6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

12a.) The slope equation is y = mx+b, where m is the slope, and b is the y intercept.

12b.) to find f(3) you could either plug it into the equation given (125x+50) or pretend there is a vertical line at 3 on the x axis, and where it crosses the line given would be the answer.

12c.) He is climbing a 500 ft cliff, and according to the graph, it takes him 3.6 hours to do it. Another way to find this answer would be to find f(3.6), which is indeed 500 ft.

Hope this helps!
