The correct answer is A. 120 ft squared because you must multiply the height times the width which comes to 120.
2y - 18x = -26
Add 18x to both sides.
2y = -26 + 18x
Divide by 2 on both sides.
y = -13 + 9x
y = 9x - 13
C= two step equations require all number to be whole number in order to solve.
Here is an example that disproves that:
.5x + 8= 18
<u> -8 -8</u>
<u>.5</u>x = <u>10
</u>.5 .5
x = 20 (.5 is certainly not a whole number but I solved it anyway)
78 rounded to the nearest tenth is 80
The submarine is 68 feet below sea level, which is -68
