Answer:

  16 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The geometry of the problem can be modeled by a right triangle. The Pythagorean theorem tells us the relationship between the various distances.

  EH² +HF² = EF²

  EH² + 12² = 20²

  EH² = 400 -144

  EH = √256 = 16

The hook is 16 feet below Edna.

2x squared + 9x=-5 i need to solve for x
In-s [12.5K]
2x^2+ 9x=-5 \\ \\2x^2 + 9x+5 =0 \\\\a=2, \ \ b=9 , \ \ c=5 \\\\\Delta =b^2-4ac = 9^2 -4\cdot 2\cdot 5 =  81-40=41 \\ \\x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta} }{2a}=\frac{-9-\sqrt{41}}{2\cdot 2 }=\frac{-9-\sqrt{41}}{ 4 }\\\\ x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta} }{2a}=\frac{-9+\sqrt{41}}{2\cdot 2 }=\frac{-9+\sqrt{41}}{4 }
