The answer is A: square root.

If she knows the area is x feet squared, then you have to find the square root of the number, to find the side length. Hope that helps!

<h2>Answer:</h2>

A. square root is the right answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Now we know that, Betsy finds a <u>square rug</u> that she wants to purchase for her living room and she needs to know the side measure.

Area of the rug is A square feet.

To model this situation, square root function is the best.

We know that area of square having side 's' = s\times s=s^{2}

A = s^{2}

So, s=\sqrt{A}

Lets take an example.

Let the area of the rug be 25 square feet.

So, side will be : side \times side = 25

side =\sqrt{25}

side = 5 feet

Hence, the answer is square root function.

X-intercept (3,0) and y-intercept (0,-6) point slope form please.
Viktor [21]

Answer:

y+6=2x

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

x-intercept (3,0) and y-intercept (0,-6)

step 1

Find the slope

The slope is

m=(-6-0)/(0-3)=2

step 2

Find the equation of the line into point slope form

The equation is equal to

y-y1=m(x-x1)

we have

m=2

(0,-6)

substitute

y+6=2(x-0)

y+6=2x ----> equation of the line into point slope form
