-56ft

Since it is BELOW sea level it would be considered a negative number. If it were ABOVE sea level then it would be a positive number. Another way to think about this:

Above Sea Level = +

Below Sea Level = -

Hope this helps and have a nice day.

Answer:

-56

Step-by-step explanation:

That is because the 56 is below sea level, not above it, so it would be negative 56

Hope that helps!

You have 250,000 In an IRA at the time you retire.You have the option of investing this money in two funds.Fund A pays 1.2% annu

krok68 [10]

Let x be the amount of money, you fund in Fund A and y be the amount of mone yyou fund in Fund B.

1. You have 250,000 In an IRA at the time you retire and want to invest this money into Funds A and B, then

$x+y=250,000.$

2. Fund A pays 1.2% (as a decimal 1.2% is 0.012) annually, then $x\cdot 0.012=0.012x$ is annual interest income in Fund A.

Fund B pays 6.2% (as a decimal 6.2% is 0.062) annually, then $y\cdot 0.062=0.062y$ is annual interest income in Fund B.

Since Fund A and Fund B produce an annual interest income of $8,000, then

$0.012x+0.062y=8,000.$

3. Solve the system of equations:

$\left\{\begin{array}{l}x+y=250,000\\0.012x+0.062y=8,000.\end{array}\right.$

Express x from first equation $x=250,000-y$ and substitute it into the second equation

$0.012(250,000-y)+0.062y=8,000.$

Multiply this equation by 1000:

$12(250,000-y)+62y=8000,000,\\ \\3000,000-12y+62y=8000,000,\\ \\62y-12y=8000,000-3000,000,\\ \\50y=5000,000,\\ \\y=100,000$

Then

$x=250,000-100,000=150,000.$

Answer: you have to fund $150,000 in Fund A and $100,000 in Fund B.

We have 3⁴ = 81, so we can factorize this as a difference of squares twice:

$x^8 - \dfrac1{81} = \left(x^2\right)^4 - \left(\dfrac13\right)^4 \\\\ x^8 - \dfrac1{81} = \left(\left(x^2\right)^2 - \left(\dfrac13\right)^2\right) \left(\left(x^2\right)^2 + \left(\dfrac13\right)^2\right) \\\\ x^8 - \dfrac1{81} = \left(x^2 - \dfrac13\right) \left(x^2 + \dfrac13\right) \left(\left(x^2\right)^2 + \left(\dfrac13\right)^2\right) \\\\ x^8 - \dfrac1{81} = \left(x^2 - \dfrac13\right) \left(x^2 + \dfrac13\right) \left(x^4 + \dfrac19\right)$

Depending on the precise definition of "completely" in this context, you can go a bit further and factorize $x^2-\frac13$ as yet another difference of squares:

$x^2 - \dfrac13 = x^2 - \left(\dfrac1{\sqrt3}\right)^2 = \left(x-\dfrac1{\sqrt3}\right)\left(x+\dfrac1{\sqrt3}\right)$

And if you're working over the field of complex numbers, you can go even further. For instance,

$x^4 + \dfrac19 = \left(x^2\right)^2 - \left(i\dfrac13\right)^2 = \left(x^2 - i\dfrac13\right) \left(x^2 + i\dfrac13\right)$

But I think you'd be fine stopping at the first result,

$x^8 - \dfrac1{81} = \boxed{\left(x^2 - \dfrac13\right) \left(x^2 + \dfrac13\right) \left(x^4 + \dfrac19\right)}$

Is the following statement correct? Explain.

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer: The answer is NO.

Step-by-step explanation: The given statement is -

If the graph of two equations are coincident lines, then that system of equations will have no solution.

We are to check whether the above statement is correct or not.

Any two equations having graphs as coincident lines are of the form -

$ax+by=c,\\\\dax+dby=dc,\\\\\textup{where}~~d\neq 1.$

If we take d = 1, then both the equations will be same.

Now, subtracting the second equation from first, we have

$a(1-d)x+b(1-d)y=c(1-d)\\\\\Rightarrow ax+by=c,~\textup{since}~d\neq 1,~\textup{so}~1-d\neq 0.$

Again, we will get the first equation, which is linear in two unknown variables. So, the system will have infinite number of solutions, which consists of the points lying on the line.

For example, see the attached figure, the graphs of following two equations is drawn and they are coincident. Also, the result is again the same straight line which has infinite number of points on it. These points makes the solution for the following system.

$2x+5y=10,\\\\6x+15y=30.$

Thus, the given statement is not correct.

M∠A = 75 + 5x

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

For a parallelogram m < A = m < C so:-

75 + 5x = 87 + 3x

2x = 12

x = 6

and m< A = 75 + 30 = 105

and m < C = 87 + 18 = 105

Now if the other 2 angles are = 75 degrees( that is the same side angles add up to 180 degrees) we have proved that it is a parallelogram.

m < B = m < D

111 - 6x = 39 + 6x

-12x = -72

x = 6

m < B = 111 - 36 = 75 and m < D = 39 + 36 = 75

So this has been proved.
