An island has some portion submerged in water. Point A on the island is at negative 7 over 3 feet from the surface of the sea. Point B on the island is at negative 5 over 2 feet from the surface of the sea. Because negative 7 over 3 feet > negative 5 over 2 feet, what is true about the distance of the two points from the surface of the sea? (1 point) Point A is closer to the surface of the sea than point B.
Point B is closer to the surface of the sea than point A.
Both points are 4 and 5 over 6 feet from the surface of the sea.
Both points are 1 over 6 feet from the surface of the sea.

step-by-step explanation:

im not sure what the answer is

one way is to plot 2 points and connect them which is what the answer choices seem to be doing

it seems to be using the y intercept and the slope

y=mx+b, m=slope, b=y-intercept (where the line hits the y axis)

slope=rise/run

y-intercept is where the line croses the y axis which is the y value where x=0

you seem to have given the wrong slope (you didn't put a number in front of te x, it should be 2/3 or 3/2 looking at the answer options)

y=? x-1

m=? because of your fault

b=-1

so it has a slope of ? and y intercept of -1, meaning it pases through (0,-1)

so draw point (0,-1) (so answer is one of the first 2 option)

if slope is 2/3, then go up 2 and right 3 then draw line through those 2 points

if slope is 3/2, then go up 3 and right 2 then draw line through those 2 points

the answer is b because it has ^2 and the rest do not.

step-by-step explanation:

simplifying

7ln(x + 2.8) = 11.2

reorder the terms:

7ln(2.8 + x) = 11.2

(2.8 * 7ln + x * 7ln) = 11.2

(19.6ln + 7lnx) = 11.2

solving

19.6ln + 7lnx = 11.2

solving for variable 'l'.

move all terms containing l to the left, all other terms to the right.

reorder the terms:

-11.2 + 19.6ln + 7lnx = 11.2 + -11.2

combine like terms: 11.2 + -11.2 = 0.0

-11.2 + 19.6ln + 7lnx = 0.0

the solution to this equation could not be determined.

step-by-step explanation:

i searched it on google but it says that the solution to this equation could not be determined but i hope that it you a little.
