Correct question:

An elevator in a mine shaft is stopped at 25 feet below ground level. And then travels 28 feet downward. What equation can be written to find the final position in feet of the elevator in relations to ground level?

Answer:

-53 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial stop point = 25 feets below ground level

Further distance traveled = 28 feets below ground level

Final position in feet = Initial stop point + further distance traveled

Note : distances or point traveled below ground level or downward is represented as negative.

Final position in feets = (-25)feets + (-28)feets

Final position in feets = - 53 feets

Find the volume of the square pyramid below
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume (V) of a pyramid is

V = \frac{1}{3} area of base × perpendicular height (h)

area of square base = 4² = 16 and h = 4, hence

V = \frac{1}{3} × 16 × 4 = \frac{64}{3} = 21 \frac{1}{3} ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

         Weight of the small box  = 125pounds

Unknown:

Weight of the larger box = ?

Solution:

The large box weighs 3\frac{1}{3} times as the small box:

               So;

                =   125pounds x \frac{10}{3}

                = 416.7pounds

natima [27]

For this case we have that by definition it is fulfilled:

a ^ b

Where:

a: It is the base

b: It is the exponent

So, if we have the following expression:

-6 to the power of 4, is equivalent to: (-6) ^ 4

So we have to:

-6: It is the base

4: It is the exponent

Answer:

-6: It is the base

Nick cut a circular cookie into 5 equal slices. what is the angle measure of each slice?
NemiM [27]

Answer:

72°

Step-by-step explanation:

The cookie has a shape of a circle. A circle is the locus of a point such that its distance from a point (center) is always the same. The sum of angles around the circle center is 360°.

Let x be the measure of the angle in each slice. Therefore the sum of the total 5 slice is:

x + x + x + x + x  = 360

5x = 360

Dividing through by 5:

5x / 5 = 360 / 5

x = 72°

Each slice has an angle measure of 72°
