Challenge
a gold mine has two elevators, one for equipment and another for the miners. the equipment elevator descends 4 feet per second. the elevator for the miners descends 14 feet per second. one day, the equipment elevator begins to descend. after 23 seconds, the elevator for the miners begins to descend. what is the position of each elevator relative to the surface after another 15 seconds? at that time, which elevator is deeper?

step-by-step explanation:

the multiplicative inverse of a fraction a/b is b/a. for the multiplicative inverse of a real number, divide 1 by the number. for example, the reciprocal of 5 is one fifth 1/5 or 0.2, and the reciprocal of 0.25 is 1 divided by 0.25, or 4.

1 1/7 hope i

step-by-step explanation:

8/7 = (1 * 7 + 1) / 7 = 1 + 1/7 = 1 1/7

it's a proportional graph.

step-by-step explanation:

8 x 5 = 40         (and you have -8x and -5y)

x= absiss

y= orderly

so you have a proportional graph.
