Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression : -600 - (-50) as explorer climbs back to the surface :

In terms of elevation :

-600 represents the initial position below the surface.

The Change in elevation from his initial position is - 50 (though the climber is moving towards the surface) ; the negative sign depicts that he is still below the surface.

Hence,

-600 - (-50)

= - 600 + 50

= - 610

Hence, the explorer moved an elevation of - 50 in the upward direction from his initial position of - 600 ; Hence, his position is - 610 ; which is still beneath the surface

The back of Dante's property is a creek. Dante would like to enclose a rectangular area, using the creek as one side and fencing
Allushta [10]

The correct value is 720 ft of fencing.

Answer:

Max Area = 64800 sq.ft

Step-by-step explanation:

A square will always give us the maximum area.

Thus, one side would be;

720/4 = 180 feet

So, we want a square 180 ft by 180 ft

however, from the question, we are to use the creek as one side. So, we'll take the 180 ft that we don't need because of the creek and then add it to the opposite side to get 180 + 180 = 360 ft.

Thus,we now have a rectangle with dimensions: 180 ft by 360 ft

Area is given by;

area = length × width

Maximum Area = 180 × 360

Max Area = 64800 sq.ft
