Answer:

6.45 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

He starts 17 and 1/2 feet off the ground

Elevation relative to ground: 17 1/2

Then he increases the height by 4 and 3/4

Expression: 17 1/2 +4 3/4

Elevation relative to ground: 22 1/4

Next he decreases the elevation by 15.8 feet

Expression: 22.25-15.8

Elevation relative to ground: 6.45

The answer 6.45 feet from the ground

7th Grade Math (Please help me with this question I'm confused with this one)
Vlad [161]

Answer:

To subtract a number from another number, the sign of the number (which is to be subtracted) should be changed and then this number with the changed sign, should be added to the first number

Step-by-step explanation:

(i) Evaluate (+6) – (+2)

= (+6) + (-2) (charging the sign of the number to be subtracted and then adding)

On subtracting smaller number 2 from bigger number 6; we get 6 – 2 = 4

Since, the sign of bigger number is + (positive)

= +4 or 4

Therefore, (+6) – (+2) = 4

(ii) Evaluate (+5) – (-3)

= (+5) + (+3) (charging the sign of the number to be subtracted and then adding)

We know, to add a positive (+ ve) number to a positive (+ ve) number, the numbers should be added and positive sign should be attached to the sum obtained.

= +8

Therefore, (+5) – (-3) = 8

PLEASE HELP ITS URGENT!!<br> Given: △ABC is isosceles; 1 ≅ 3<br> Prove: AB || CD
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

AB ║ CD. (Proved)

Step-by-step explanation:

See the attached diagram of the triangle.

It is given that Δ ACD is an isosceles triangle.

Therefore, AC = AD and ∠ ACD = ∠ ADC, ⇒ ∠ 3 = ∠ 4 .......... (1)

Again, given that ∠ 1 = ∠ 3 ........... (2)

Now, from equations (1) and (2) we can write, ∠ 1 = ∠ 4

Now, AB and CD are two straight lines and AD is the transverse line and hence, ∠ 1 and ∠ 4 are alternate angles that are equal.

Therefore, AB and CD are parallel straight lines and AB ║ CD. (Proved)
