A leatherback sea turtle was swimming at 850 meters below sea level. He went up
165 meters and then descended 165 meters.
Draw a number line to show the change
in position of the sea turtle from the
depth it was swimming.
A
-900-850-800-750-700-650-600
What integer represents the sea turtle's
change in position?

the slope of the line is 60

one point on the line is (40,10)

step-by-step explanation:

in the equation outside the parenthesis the equation always tells you the slope. in this case it is 60.

in the parenthesis is also says 40 which is x because it is near the x and 10 is y because it is near y.

answer: i guess 5 units?

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of red paint to blue paint is always 9/7. that means that, whatever x's value, (4x+12)/(4x-4) has that same ratio. so, set up an equation and cross-multiply to solve for x:

9/7 = (4x+12)/(4x-4)

9(4x-4) = 7(4x+12)

36x - 36 = 28x + 84

8x - 36 = 84

8x = 120

x = 15
