Answer:

Its elevation relative to the sea level is -18 1/6 ft (it is 18 1/6 below sea level)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the elevation relative to sea level

The sea level refer to the base of the sea

We follow the flight procedure;

distance of 24 1/2 ft above sea level , then go further up by 5

its elevation now is 24 1/2 + 5 = 29 1/2 ft

A change of -47 2/3 ft

So the elevation now will be;

29 1/2 - 47 2/3

= 59/2 - 143/3

= (177-286)/6 = -109/6

= -18 1/6 ft

Aliun [14]

Answer: 7 feets

Step-by-step explanation:

A 7 feet stop sign creates a shadow that is 2 feet long. At the same time a utility pole creates a shadow that is 2 feet long. How tall is the utility pole.

Length of shadow created by 7 feet stop sign = 2 feets

Length of shadow created by utility pole = 2 feets

Length of utility pole =?

Since the length of shadow created by a body is dependent on the height of the body and the position of the sun.

Since the length of shadow are similar = 2 feets

The height of the utility pole and the sign post would be the same.

Hence, height of utility pole will be 7 feets

If f(x) = - 2x2 + 2x - 3, what is f(5)?<br><br> A) -93 <br> B) -43 <br> C) -28 <br> D) -<br> 43/5
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

The answer to your question is letter B

Step-by-step explanation:

Process

1.- Write the function

                                 f(x) = - 2x² + 2x - 3

Find f(5)

2.- Substitute x for 5

                                f(5) = -2(5)⁵ + 2(5) - 3

3.- Simplify

                                f(5) = -2(25) + 10 - 3

                                f(5) = -50 + 7

                                f(5) = -43
