The number line shows the distance in meters of two jellyfish, a and b, from a predator located at point x: a horizontal number line extends from negative 3 to positive 3. the point a is at negative 1.5, the point 0 is labeled as x, and the point labeled b is at 0.5. write an expression using subtraction to find the distance between the two jellyfish. (5 points) show your work and solve for the distance using additive inverses. (5 points

The distance between the two jellyfish is 0.5 - (-1.5)

To solve using additive inverse 0.5 - (-1.5) = -(-0.5 - 1.5) = -(-2) = 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

i would say c is the best answer, hope it's right!

good luck! =)

d. bc = 12 and ef = 16

step-by-step explanation:

we are given that δabc : δdef such that .

also, it is given that

so, from the options, we need that .

a.

b.

c.  

d.

as, we can see that only option d gives the same ratio as i.e. .

hence, the possible lengths are bc = 12 and ef = 16.
