We want to see what the numbers on the number line represent. We will see that the correct option is A:

<em>"220 feet below sea level and 19 feet above sea level."</em>

<em />

So we know that the surface of the river is at -220ft in the number line, and 19ft represents the top of a building.

We also know that the 0 in the number line is the sea level.

To go from 0 to -220ft, we need to move in the negative range, so we can see that "-220ft" must represent a value that is below the 0, meaning that the "-220ft" represents 220 feet below sea level (remember that the sea level is at 0).

The opposite case is for 19ft, it is in the positive range, then it is above the sea level.

Then the correct option is A:

<em>"220 feet below sea level and 19 feet above sea level."</em>

We need a rock garden with a perimeter of 12 feet and an area of 8 square feet what is the length and width
Katarina [22]

The dimensions of the rectangle can be a length of 2ft and a width of 4ft.

<h3>How to find the dimensions of the garden?</h3>

Remember that for a rectangle of length L and width W, the perimeter is:

P = 2*(L + W)

And the area is:

A = L*W

In this case, we know that the area is 8 square feet and the perimeter is 12 ft, then we have a system of equations:

12ft = 2*(L + W)

8ft² = L*W

To solve this, we first need to isolate one of the variables in one of the equations, I will isolate L on the first one:

12ft/2 = L + W

6ft - W = L

Now we can replace that in the other equation to get:

8ft² = (6ft - W)*W

This is a quadratic equation:

-W^2 + 6ft*W - 8ft² = 0

The solutions are given by Bhaskara's formula:

W = \frac{-6 \pm \sqrt{(6ft)^2 - 4*(-1)*(-8)} }{2*-1} \\\\W = \frac{-6 \pm 2}{-2}

Then we have two solutions:

W = (-6 - 2)/-2 = 4ft

W = (-6 + 2)/-2 = 2ft

If we take any of these solutions, the length will be equal to the other solution.

So the dimensions of the rectangle can be a length of 2ft and a width of 4ft.

If the null hypothesis of an experiment is “The true mean weight of the piglets is at least 39lbs” what is the alternate hypothe
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

“The true mean weight of the piglets is at most 39lbs”would be the alternate hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that  the null hypothesis of an experiment is “The true mean weight of the piglets is at least 39lbs”

We have to find the alternate hypothesis.

In hypothesis testing, alternate is the opposite of null hypothesis.  If null hypothesis supports one statement alternate hypothesis opposes it.  In other words, alternate hypothesis would be the negative of the claim of null hypothesis.

Here the null hypothesis of an experiment is “The true mean weight of the piglets is at least 39lbs”

i.e H0: x bar\geq 39 lbs

So alternate hypothesis

Ha:  x bar\leq 39 lbs

Tell how you rename fractions greater than 1 as mixed numbers as fractions greater than 1.
alex41 [277]
For example...
 if you have a mixed fraction 1 1/2, and change it to fraction greater than one, it would be  3/2  (which is 1 or 2/2 + 1/2)

Which term completes the product so that it is the difference of squares?
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

the answer is  3

Step-by-step explanation:

(-5x-3)(-5x+3)=(5x)^2 - (3)^2

A difference of squares is the difference of two squared terms.

We have

a^2 - b^2

We can factorize the difference of squared terms like this:

a^2-b^2 = (a+b)(a-b)

We have (-5x-3)(-5x+3)

Lets prove it:

(-5x-3)(-5x+3) = (-5x*-5x)+(-5x*3)+(-3*-5x)+(-3*3)

(-5x-3)(-5x+3) = 25x^2+(-15x)+(15x)+(-9)

(-5x-3)(-5x+3) = 25x^2-15x+15x-9

(-5x-3)(-5x+3) = 25x^2-9

(-5x-3)(-5x+3) = (5x)^2 - (3)^2
