1 The highest point on an iceberg is about 131 feet above the water level. With the water level represented at 0 feet, the base of
the iceberg is at an elevation of approximately -272 feet. What is the total approximate height of the iceberg?

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the iceberg is 131 feet above the water and 273 feet bellow the water. We don't need the - on the 272 because we just want to know the length, no the direction it is going. so we add 131 and 272 and get 303.

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?
