Bajo del Gualicho has an elevation of -72 meters. Lago Enriquillo has an elevation of -46 meters. Note that both places have negative elevations because they are below sea level.
Write an inequality that correctly compares the elevations.
Which one of the following descriptions is correct?
Choose 1
Bajo del Gualicho has a higher elevation than Lago Enriquillo.
Lago Enriquillo has a higher elevation than Bajo del Gualicho,

answer

d. 10

explanation

the distance from point y to wx is the height of the triangle.

using pythagoras theorem,

group similar terms to get,

this implies that,

take positive square root of both sides to get,

this implies that,

a) 0,0; 1,1; and 2,2

step-by-step explanation:

these have the exact same coordinates, thus they are the correct function.

you just switch the numbers basically so it would be 3/17

55.44 inches

step-by-step explanation:

part a. assuming a perfectly linear relationship, we can find the slope from the first two data points.

slope = m = (change in rainfall)/(change in years)

= (61.80 -62.33)/(2005 -2004) = -0.53/1 = -0.53

then the point-slope form of the equation of the line can be written as

y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . m = -0.53, (h, k) = (0, 62.33)

y = -0.53x +62.33 . . . x = years after 2004

part b. in 2017, x = 2017 -2004 = 13. then the predicted rainfall is

y = -0.53·13 +62.33 = 55.44 . . inches

the predicted rainfall in 2017 is 55.44 in.
