Answer:
(a) So the top of the hill is 365 feet above sea level.
(b) Checkpoint 5 is 185 feet higher than checkpoint 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Solution for (a):</u>
<u />
Checkpoint 2 is -218 feet above sea level.
The top of a hill rises 583 feet above Checkpoint 2.
The altitude of the top of the hill = -218 + 583 = 365
So the top of the hill is 365 feet above sea level.
<u>Solution for (b):</u>
<u />
Checkpoint 2 is -218 feet above sea level.
Checkpoint 5 is -33 feet above sea level.
Checkpoint 5 is -33 - -218 = 185 feet higher than checkpoint 2.
Hoi!
To solve this, first plug in the values for x and y.
x = 2, so anywhere you see x, put 2 in its place.
y = 3, so anywhere you see y, put 3 in its place.
4 × 2 = 8
× 3 =
=
is your answer.
Answer:
D. The rate of change must be 20 pounds per minute.
Step-by-step explanation:
At time 0, the amount of sand is 200 lb. Time zero is when it starts, so it is also called the initial time. The initial value is 200 lb, so choices A and B are wrong.
Now look at the difference from time 0 minutes to time 1 minute. The amount of sand went from 200 lb to 220 lb. The amount of sand placed in 1 minute is 20 lb, so the rate of change is 20 lb per minute. That makes choice C wrong and choice D correct.
Answer: D. The rate of change must be 20 pounds per minute.
