The answer is 8. This is because when you substitute 8 with “a” you then solve the problem to see if it is equal to the answer. -4+8=4... -4+4=0 so that is wrong and -4+O=-4 which is also incorrect.
To find the length of the ladder, you need to do Pythagorean theorem.
50^2 + 30^2 = x^2
2500 + 900 = x^2
x^2 =3400
x= square root of 3400
58.31 OR 10 root34
To find the angle:
tan theta = opposite/adjacent
50/30 = 5/3
theta = tan inverse of 5/3
= 59.04
"<em>The distance around a circle"</em> = Circumference
Circumference = 3.14 * diameter
3900 * 3.14 = 12246
The circumference (distance around the crater) is equal to 12,246 feet
M = (f(5) -f(-2))/(5 -(-2)) = (-10 -1)/7
m = -11/7
The slope of the line is -11/7.
