Answer:

If one buoy is placed 120 feet away from the left shore, then the distance of the second buoy from the left shore = 480

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The absolute value function:

d(h) = \dfrac{1}{6}|h - 300| - 50

To calculate the position of the buoy where the river bottom is 20 feet below the surface, we equate the absolute value function to the negative value of 20 feet and then solve it for h.

d(h) = -20

d(h) = \dfrac{1}{6}|h - 300| - 50 = -20

Let us add the sum of 50 on both sides, then:

= \dfrac{1}{6}|h - 300| - 50+50 = -20+50

= \dfrac{1}{6}|h - 300| = 30

By multiplying 6 on both sides, we have:

|h - 300| = 30 (6)

|h - 300| = 180

We can attempt the above expression by rewriting it as two equations:

h - 300 = 180   or     h  - 300  = - 180

Let us add 300 to both sides from the two expressions above:

h - 300 + 300 = 180 + 300     or   h - 300 + 300   = -180  + 300

h = 480     or  h = 120

Thus, if one buoy is placed 120 feet away from the left shore, then the distance of the second buoy from the left shore = 480

Which expression shows how 6 • 45 can be rewritten using the distributive property?
tatuchka [14]
6*45=270 is the first step you should do to get the answer you are looking for. The next thing I would do is go to all the answers to see which one comes out the same way. The first one comes to be 246, the next one is 54, the next is 270 and the last one is 220. 6*40+6*5 is the correct answer.

Answer:

  x = 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply by 3 and solve the resulting 2-step equation.

  5 = (1/3)(2x +12)

  15 = 2x +12 . . . . . . multiply by 3

  3 = 2x . . . . . . . . . . subtract 12

  3/2 = x . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2
