Since he descended 12 meters, we subtract this from the overall height of Mount Ka'ala, so then we are only calculating how high ABOVE the sea level it is.
1232 - 12 = 1220
The height of Mount Ka'ala is therefore 1,220 meters.
To calculate how much a fifth of Mount Ka'ala is (since the ranger station is 2/5's up), we would divide this number by 5
1220 ÷ 5 = 244
Since ONE fifth of the height is 244 meters, TWO fifths would be double that amount.
244 x 2 = 488
488 meters.
The ranger station is 488m above sea level.
It would be - 65
7 x 1 = 7
9 x 8 = 72
7 - 72 = - 65
hope this helps you
Step-by-step explanation + Answer:
x = 1st job
y = 2nd job
x + y = 22......x = 22 - y
7x + 8.25y = 171.50
7(22 - y ) + 8.25y = 171.50
154 - 7y + 8.25y = 171.50
-7y + 8.25y = 171.50 - 154
1.25y = 17.50
y = 17.50 / 1.25
y = 14 <== 14 hrs at the 8.25 per hr job
x + y = 22
x + 14 = 22
x = 22 - 14
x = 8 <=== 8 hrs at the 7 per hr job
