$333.33
$333.33
-$333.33
-$333.33
-$0.003
-$0.003
$0.003
$0.003
would it be negative or positive?
The value decrease per month would be negative, so the correct answer is -$333.33.
u just said it was $0.003 so is it -$0.003 or is it -$333.33?
I apologize for the confusion. The correct answer is -$333.33. The car's value decreases by $4000 in 12 months, so to find the value decrease per month, you would divide $4000 by 12, which equals $333.33. Since it is a decrease, it would be represented as -$333.33.
positive?

5. It is recommended that hikers drink 24 ounces of water an hour. If a canteen has 24 ounces of water, how much should the amount of water in the canteen change every 10 minutes?(1 point)

To find the amount of water the canteen should change every 10 minutes, you need to determine how much water is consumed in one hour and then divide that by 6 (since there are 6 sets of 10 minutes in an hour).
24 ounces of water are consumed in one hour, so in 10 minutes, (24/6) ounces of water should be consumed.
This simplifies to 4 ounces. Therefore, the correct answer is 4 ounces.
