During a scuba dive, Lainey descended to a point 26 feet below the ocean surface. She continued her descent at a rate of 26 feet per minute. Enter an inequality you could solve to find the number of minutes she can continue to descend if she does not want to reach a point more than 78 feet below the ocean surface. Use t to represent the variable for the minutes Lainey can continue to descend.

t ≤ 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Initial Position = - 26 feets (below surface)

Descent rate = 26 feets per minute

Maximum depth = 78 feets

Let t = number of minutes

Hence,

Initial position + (descent rate * number of minutes) ≤ - 78

-26 + (- 26t) ≤ - 78

-26t ≤ - 78 + 26

-26t ≤ - 52

t ≤ 52/26

t ≤ 2

what is a pre-existing condition claus?

means if you're already damaged some way when you take out a medical insurance you will not get full compensation for that injury that you already have.

the quotient is 4x^2 - 27x + 167 with a remainder of -996

step-by-step explanation:

in synthetic division, use -6 as the divisor and use the coefficients {4, -3, 5, 6}:

-6     )   4     -3     5     6

                -24   162 -1002

          4   -27   167   -996

thus, the quotient is 4x^2 - 27x + 167 with a remainder of -996.

note:   your "4x°-3x+5x+6" is ambiguous / incomplete.   i had to assume that you meant '4x^3 - 3x^2 + 5x + 6."
