A space probe is launched from a platform that is just above 100 meters below sea level. The probe is expected to travel into deep space indefinitely. Write an equality showing the altitude of the probe after it is launched.

x ≤ ∞

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the height of the space probe above sea level in meters.

Initially, before launch, the space probe is launched from a platform that is just above 100 meters below sea level, hence:

x < -100 (the negative sign shows that it is below sea level).

After launch, The probe is expected to travel into deep space indefinitely. Therefore the height of the probe after it is launched is represented by the inequality:

x ≤ ∞

$53.50

step-by-step explanation:

you have to subtract the amount of money chuck earned ($72.50) by the cost of the gas for the mower ($11.25) and the new string for the trimmer he bought ($7.75).

72.50-11.25=61.25

and then subtract $61.25 by the second thing he bought (the new string for the trimmer)

61.25-7.75=53.5

so in total it's $53.50 (53 dollars and 50 cents)
