A. \(30-\frac{30}{6}\). \(\frac{30}{6}=5\). \(30-5=25\). You have been posting a lot of problems. Why don't you post your attempts at solving next time. I am asuming this is for homework?

B. False. -3>-2 suggests that -3 is greater than -2 which is incorrect. A true statement would be -3 is a solution of y<-2.

It is 120. :D

Annnnnd CPhill beat me to it

Let \(d\) be the distance to location b in km. Since you drove \(100\) km/h, then the time that it took you to get there is \(\frac{d}{100}\). If you drove \(120\) km/h then the time would be \(\frac{d}{120}\). Since you drove arrived \(55 \) minutes later, and \(\frac{55}{60}\), or \(\frac{11}{12}\). Therefore we can create the equation, \(\frac{d}{120}=\frac{d}{100}-\frac{11}{12}\). Multiplying both sides by \(600\). The LCM. We get \(5d=6d-550\). Subtract \(6d\) from both sides. \(-d=-550\). Divide by \(-1\). \(d=550\). The distance between location \(a\) and location \(b\) is \(550\) km.

(a) Sea level is \(0\), therefore the elevation of city (A) is \(-96\), and the elevation of city (C) is \(-24\). For this part we do not need the elevation of city (A). The elevation of city (D) is \(\frac{1}{4}\) of city (C). The key word is OF! Of means to multiply. Therefore we have the expression\(-24\cdot\frac{1}{4}\).

(b) Part b is fairly simple. All you have to do is compute \(-24\cdot\frac{1}{4}=-6\). As for explaining why it's negative we go back to how a negative times a positive is a negative. 

This wasn't a very challenging problem. Are you sure you couldn't have solved it?

Thanks Guest

Gotcha thx

But how did you get 9 and 11?? Never mind I just realized thanks
