To find the elevation above ground, we subtract the depth of the basement from the total length of the building:
70 feet - 15 feet = 55 feet
Therefore, the building's elevation above ground is 55 feet.
8⋅9−2⋅5
Remember to use the order of operations (PEMDAS).
Using the order of operations, we first perform the multiplication:
8 * 9 = 72
2 * 5 = 10
Next, we subtract the products:
72 - 10 = 62
Therefore, 8 * 9 - 2 * 5 equals 62.
