A lookout tower above a canyon is 4 meters above ground level. The depth of the canyon is 16 meters below ground level. If 0 represents ground level, which number sentence correctly compares their distances above and below ground level? A) 4<-16

B)4>-16

C)-4<16

D)-4>16

B

Step-by-step explanation:

4 meters above. So 4 will not be negative, this eliminates C and D.

16 is definitely negative. So that eliminates C and D again.

< the number on the left of this is smaller than the right

> the number of the right of this is bigger than the left

4 is larger than -16

4>-16

B

use an equation of ratios to determine the amount of gas needed to fill the tank.

    0.2             0.8

  =    

288.75             x

                                                              231 gal

so, 0.2x = (0.8)(288.75 gal), and x = = 1155 gal.

                                                                0.2

it would take 1155 gal. to fill the tank.

the cost would be

1155 gal         $3

* = $3465   (answer)

      1           1 gal

hope this you
