Dalol depression is about 116 meters below sea level. The top of mountain Dashin is about 4550
meters above sea level. What is the vertical
distance from the top of Dashin to the bottom of
Dalol depression?

The vertical distance is 4,666 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The sea level is like a base

Heights above the sea level are considered positive

Heights below are regarded as negative

So the depression is at a height of -116 m

The mountain top is at a height of 4550 m

The vertical distance is thus;

4550 - (-116)

=

4550 + 116 = 4,666 m

the answer

b. they are parallel and will never intersect.

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?
