You get in an elevator and ride down 5 floors. You realize you forgot something, so you stay on the elevator and ride back up 5 floors. Which expression represents the number of floors you are from your original position?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

y = x - 5 + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the the original position and y be the new position.

After rid down, 5 floors, the expression would be y = x - 5.

After rid back up 5 floors, the expression changed to y = x - 5 + 5.

Hence, the required expression is y = x - 5 + 5 = x.

Answer 2
Answer: The expression is ' 0 ', as in 'zero'. If it were anything else, then that wouldn't help you go back to where you started and get what you forgot.

Are they scaled copies or not? If so how do I find out?

Answers

1) Find the length of the diagonals of the greater rhombus

NJ=9 units

XY=6 units

Find the the ratio

NJ/XY=9/6-------> 3/2

2) Find the length of the diagonals of the smaller rhombus

HS=6 units

ZC=4 units

Find the the ratio

HS/ZC=6/4-------> 3/2

so

NJ/XY=HS/ZC--------> the rhombus are similar

the scale factor is equal to ------> 3/2=1.5

measure greater rhombus =scale factor*measure smaller rhombus

measure greater rhombus =1.5*measure smaller rhombus

measure smaller rhombus=(measure greater rhombus/1.5)

therefore

the answer is

Yes , they are a scaled copies and the scale factor is equal to 1.5


one winter day,the temperature ranged from a high 20°F to a low -25°F. By how many degrees did the temperature drop?

Answers

Answer:

45^(\circ)F

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that one winter day,the temperature ranged from a high 20°F to a low -25°F.

To find the degrees by which temperature dropped, we will find difference between the final temperature and initial temperature.

-25^(\circ)F-20^(\circ)F=-45^(\circ)F

Since our difference is negative, therefore, the temperature dropped 45 degrees Fahrenheit.

45 degrees. 20 - (-25)

Can anyone help with this, very emergency! !

There is a 0 at the end that does not need to be shown, 23.240
5.6 x 4.15

= (5.00 + 0.60) * (4.00 + 0.15)

= 5.00 * 4.00 + 5.00 * 0.15 + 4.00 * 0.60 + 0.15 * 0.60

= 20 + 0.75 + 2.40 + 0.09

= 22 + 0.40 + 0.09 + 0.70 + 0.05

= 22 + 1.10 + 0.14

= 23.10 + 0.14

= 23.24

I believe that it's A neither, because I don't think that it could be displayed on a coordinate graph when it has an exponent in it. So I think it's A. Let me know if I'm correct. ;-)
