3.)
The elevation of a small submarine changes by-mile after each exploration. After
how many explorations will the submarine's elevation have changed by -1 miles?

Respuesta :

The submarine's elevation would have changed by -3/2 mile after 4 explorations.

What is elevation?

  • An elevation is a view of a three-dimensional shape from the side or the front.
  • "Rise over run" is an easy-to-remember equation for calculating a change in elevation as a decimal, which means the rise (the change in vertical distance) divided by the run (the change in horizontal distance).

So, to find how many explorations will the submarine's elevation has changed by -1 miles:

  • After each exploration, the submarine's elevation changes by -3/8 mile.
  • To calculate the number of explorations required to change the submarine's elevation by -3/2 mile, divide -3/2 mile by the number of miles the submarine's elevation changes per exploration (that is, -3/8 mile).

Then,

  • -3/2 miles ÷ -3/8 mile
  • -3/2 ÷ -3/8 mile
  • -3/2 × -3/8 mile
  • 24/6
  • 4

Therefore, the submarine's elevation would have changed by -3/2 mile after 4 explorations.
