ANSWER:-45 - 5 = -50

EXPLANATION:

When we subtract we move left down the number line and when we add we move right up the number line

..., -50 , -49, -48, -47, -46, -45 , ... , 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ...

We are at -45 on the number line

..., -50 , -49, -48, -47, -46, -45 , ... , 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ...

We want to subtract 5 so we move 5 numbers to the left

..., -50 , -49, -48, -47, -46, -45 , ... , 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ...

This puts us at -50 therefore -45 - 5 = -50

If each foot of water in a lake screens out 60% of the light above, what percent of the light passes through 5 feet of water?

BartSMP [9]

The amount of light passing through each foot the water in the lake = 100% - 60% = 40%
The percent of light passing through 5 feet of water = 0.4^5 = 0.01024 = 1.02%

Verizon [17]

Answer:

arc FD = 236°

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of the arc is equal to the measure of the central angle it subtends, thus

arc FD = arc FE + arc ED = 146° + 90° = 236°

Find the length of CU, the triangles are similar.

Otrada [13]

Answer:

CU = 117

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

$\frac{WC}{WU}$ = $\frac{CD}{UV}$

substituting in values to the ratios

$\frac{26}{36x-1}$ = $\frac{24}{132}$ ( cross- multiply )

24(36x - 1) = 3432 ( divide both sides by 24 )

36x - 1 = 143 ( add 1 to both sides )

36x = 144 ( divide both sides by 36 )

x = 4

CU = 36x - 1 - 26 = (36 × 4) - 27 = 144 - 27 = 117
