Question
A parasail is 120 of a meter above the water. Then, after 10 minutes, the parasail is 150 of a meter above the water. What is the change in height?(1 point)
To determine the change in height, you need to subtract the initial height from the final height.
Final height - Initial height = Change in height
150/1 - 120/1 = 30/1 = 30
Therefore, the change in height is 30 meters.

To find the change in height, you need to subtract the initial height from the final height.
Final Height - Initial Height = Change in Height
150 meters - 120 meters = 30 meters
Therefore, the change in height is 30 meters.

To find the change in height, you need to subtract the initial height (120 meters) from the final height (150 meters).
Final height - Initial height = Change in height
150 meters - 120 meters = 30 meters
Therefore, the change in height is 30 meters.
could u do the problem in fractions
Certainly! Let's solve the problem using fractions.
The initial height is 120 meters, which can be written as 120/1 meters.
The final height is 150 meters, which can be written as 150/1 meters.
To find the change in height, we need to subtract the initial height from the final height:
150/1 - 120/1 = 30/1
Therefore, the change in height is 30/1 meters, which can also be simplified to 30 meters.
A parasail is 1/20 of a meter above the water. Then, after 10 minutes, the parasail is 1/50 of a meter above the water. What is the change in height?(1 point)

To find the change in height, you need to subtract the initial height (1/20 meter) from the final height (1/50 meter).
Final height - Initial height = Change in height
1/50 - 1/20 = (1/50) - (2/100) = (1/50) - (1/50) = 0
Therefore, the change in height is 0.
