Let the water surface be 0.

He starts at 15 and gets to the water surface of 0 so he travels 15 meters.

He then goes 5 meters below the surface.

15 + 5 = 20 total meters.

Answer:

20m

Step-by-step explanation:

the diver starts on a platform 15m above the water surface, which we will call 0. if he goes from the platform to -5m under the water, then he would have traveled 20m.

Radda [10]

Answer:

the first option

Step-by-step explanation:

(f-g)(x) simply means to subtract both expressions. really literally.

and we go through it power by power of x.

the highest power/exponent of x is 3 (x³). only f(x) has one.

so, -7x³ is the first part of f-g.

next is x².

11x² - 6x² = 5x², which is the second part of f-g.

next is x.

-8x - (-14x) = -8x + 14x = 6x, which is the third part of f-g.

next is x⁰ (in other words, no x, just a constant).

4 - (-3) = 4 + 3 = 7, which is the 4th part of f-g.

we have no x to the power of -1 or -2, so we have -3

0 - (-4x‐³) = 4x‐³, which is the last part of f-g.

so, it is clearly the first answer option.

Y = rx
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer: (0, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the linear system:

y = r*x

y = s*x

We want to find the point where the lines intersect,

We know that

r*x = y = s*x

r*x = s*x

if r and s are different numbers (if r = s, this means that the two lines are the same line)

Then we have that the equality is only true when x = 0.

this means that the value of y is.

y = s*0 = r*0 = 0

So the point (x, y) where the lines intersect is (0, 0)

What are the x and y intercepts for the graph of 4x - 3y = -12
vovangra [49]

x intercept is where the line crosses the x axis or where y=0

y intercept is where the line crosses the y axis or where x=0

x intercept

set y=0

4x-3y=12

4x-3(0)=12

4x=12

divide by 4

x=3

the  x intercept is 3

y intercept

set x=0

4x-3y=12

4(0)-3y=12

-3y=12

divide by -3

y=-4

the y intercept is -4

Miguel has one dollar in change. He has twice as many nickels as dimes. He has 14 more pennies than quarters. What coins does he
marin [14]
D=dimes
n=niclkes
p=pennies
q=quarters

1 dollar (100 cents)
2 times as many nickles as dimes
n=2d

14 more pennies than quarters
p+14=q

and total is 1 dollar so
25q+10d+5n+p=100
ok so we must use logic
the max number of quarters in a dolar is 4
but there are pennies so max is 3
so q=1,2, or 3
therefor p=15,16 or, 17

also, the rest of te coins are only multipules of 5 so the sum amount of pennies and quartes must add to a multiplule of 5

if q=1 and p=15, total is 40 cents
if q=2 and p=16, total is 66 cents
if q=3 and p=17, total is 92 cents
only 40 cents is a multiplule of 10

1 quarter and 15 pennies
now we are having
40 cents is pennies and quartesrs
therfor 100-40=60 cents is nickles and dimes
60=5n+10d
n=2d
sub
60=5(2d)+10d
60=10d+10d
60=20d
divide both sides by 20
3=d
sub
n=2d
n=2(3)
n=6

6 nickles
3 dimes




answer is
1 quarter
3 dimes
6 nickles
15 pennies
