When on vacation in the bahamas, leilani went under water and on land. she recorded the depths above and below sea level where she found different sea creatures.

creature depth above or below sea level

hermit crab -2ft

clam 0ft

snapper -13ft

redfish -20ft

(a) list three creatures in order from deepest to highest.

(b) write a comparison statement for the depth for the hermit crab and the snapper using < , > or =.

(The depth of snapper is greater than the depth of the hermit crab)

Step-by-step explanation:

The positive numbers are greater than zero and the negative number are less than zero.

By definition when the digit of any negative number gets bigger, the negative number actually gets smaller.

When we talk about depth, when the digit of the negative number gets bigger, means the depth is greater.

a) Let be 0 the sea level.

Based on the explained before, we can list the following three creatures   from deepest to highest:

b) Notice that the depth of the hermit crab is:

And the depth of the snapper is:

Then:

(The depth of snapper is greater than the depth of the hermit crab)

question 1 is 8, question 2 is 9, question 3 is 24

step-by-step explanation:

now, the numbers they give you at the top are the key. from there, you just have to plug and chug! let's try 1, 2, and 3!

key: a=3, b=5, c=6

1. a+5

remember, a=3, so we plug that in to get 3+5=8

2. 15-c

c=6, so we plug that in to get 15-6=9

3. 4b

b=6, so we plug it in to get 4*6=24

time to try the rest on your own! if you put the answers below in a comment, i'll check them for you!

the factors of 24 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 24. hope this ! mark brainliest! you v much! : )
