The rate of change of the diver's elevation was _____ft/min.

Answers

S=v*t=-49.9*13.75=-686.125 feet
ΔS=-686.125-(-8.9)=-677.225 feet

I NEED HELP PLZZZ Josh simplified 4x - 8x / 2 and said the answer was -2x. What was Josh's error? What should his answer have been?\

Answers

Hello there, 

This is a trick question Josh did not have an error. If you have 4x-8x in the numerator that becomes a -4x/2.
So then -4x/2= -2x
Josh was not wrong.

I hope this helped!

Answer:

***********o                                                         o**************

<----------(-4)--------(-2)--------(0)--------(-2)----------(4)-------------->

x>4 or x<-4

Step-by-step explanation:

You are looking for numbers that give you a distance, x, greater than 4 from 0. That wouldn't be anything between -4 and 4 because these would all give you a distance less than 4 from 0. So the answer would be to shade everything greater than 4 while also shading everything less than -4.

Here is a number line <-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-->

                                          -6    -4   -2    0     2     4    6    8

                                                 

Let's think about this more which of these numbers on this number line would satisfy |x|>4?

Numbers inside the numbers -4 and 4.

Or the numbers on the outside.

Let's try the inside numbers:

-2,02

|-2|>4

 2>4 is false which means -2 doesn't satisfy |x|>4

|0|>4

 0>4 is false which means 0 doesn't satisfy  |x|>4

|2|>4

 2>4 is false which means 2 doesn't satisfy  |x|>4

We could also try -4 and 4... but these will both give you a distance equal to 4 from 0.  And we are looking for greater than.

|-4|>4

 4>4 is false which mean -4 doesn't satisfy |x|>4

|4|>4

 4>4  is false which means 4 doesn't satisfy |x|>4

Now let's try the numbers on the outside:

-6,6,8

|-6|>4

 6>4 is true so -6 does satisfy |x|>4

|6|>4

 6>4 is true so 6 does satisfy |x|>4

|8|>4

 8>4 is true so 8 does satisfy |x|>4

So what I'm trying to do is convince you more that the only numbers that would satisfy |x|>4 are numbers outside the interval from -4 to 4.

So x>4 or x<-4.

On a number line the solution would look like this:

***********o                                                         o**************

<----------(-4)--------(-2)--------(0)--------(-2)----------(4)-------------->

We have holes at -4 and 4 to mean we do not include those numbers.  We would have if the inequality read |x| \ge 4.  The line underneath this inequality means to include or equals.  We do not want to include; we did not have the equal sign.   The only difference between the two solutions would be to fill the holes if you |x| \ge 4.

***********o                                                         o**************

<----------(-4)--------(-2)--------(0)--------(-2)----------(4)-------------->

What's 80÷7 I need this answer fast thank you it's for 65 points

Answers

In order to solve this, we must find out how many times 7 goes into 80. We can do this by either subtracting individual 7s from 80, or by adding 7s together until we cannot add another without going past 80.

For this answer, I will use the addition method.

7 + 7 = 14

14 + 7 = 21

21 + 7 = 28

28 + 7 = 35

35 + 7 = 42

42 + 7 = 49

49 + 7 = 56

56 + 7 = 63

63 + 7 = 70

70 + 7 = 77

From 77, we cannot add another 7 to it without going over 80, since 77 + 7 = 84.

So, let's count the sevens that we have added up so far, and when we do, we can see that there are 11 of them, adding up to 77.
So 7 goes into 80 11 times. Now, let's find the remainder...

To find the remainder, you just need to subtract the final added number from the number you are dividing from.

80 - 77 = 3

80 / 7 = 11, remainder 3
Hope that helped! =)
