Answer:
255 m
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given question, the surface of the water body is the reference point. And this point is assumed to be 0, so that any distance above it is positive, and any distance below is negative. This is synonymous to the number line system.
Thus,
For the aircraft, its height = +200 m
For the submarine, its depth = -55 m
So that the difference between the submarine and aircraft can be determined as;
200 - (-55)
= 200 + 55
= 255 m
The distance between the submarine and aircraft is 255 m.
The correct answer is B.
Explanation
Since each interval mark is 1/4 of a unit, we will write this as 0.25. For the first point, 4 interval marks to the left of the y-axis makes it a negative number; 4(0.25) = 1; this makes the x-coordinate of this point -1. 2 interval marks above the x-axis makes it positive; 2(0.25) = 0.5; this makes the y-coordinate 0.5. This makes the first ordered pair (-1, 0.5).
The second point is on the y-axis. This makes the x-coordinate 0. It is 5 intervals above the x-axis; this makes it positive. 5(0.25) = 1.25 will be the y-coordinate, making the point (0, 1.25).
The third point is 3 intervals to the right of the y-axis; this makes it positive, and 3(0.25)=0.75 for the x-coordinate. It is 3 intervals below the x-axis; this makes it negative, and 3(0.25) = 0.75, making the y-coordinate -0.75. This puts the third point at (0.75, -0.75).
Answer:
£2112
Step-by-step explanation:
To find Gavin's share, sum the parts of the ratio, 4 + 1 = 5 parts
Divide the win by 5 to find the value of one part of the ratio.
£8800 ÷ 5 = £1760 ← value of 1 part of ratio, thus
4 parts = 4 × £1760 = £7040 ← Gavin's share
Now repeat the process with the ratio for his family
1 + 6 + 3 = 10 parts
£7040 ÷ 10 = £704 ← value of 1 part of the ratio, thus
6 × £704 = £4224 ← wife's share
3 × £704 = £2112 ← son's share
Difference = £4224 - £2112 = £2112
Thus his wife gets £2112 more than the son
