[ (12 - n)/7 ] = -1
12- n = -7
-n = -19
n = 19
Y=12

The triangle is a 30-60-90 triangle!
Answer:
7.55 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Distance of descent = 1.5 miles
New elevation point after descent = 6.05 miles
The initial elevation of the plane before descent will be :
New elevation point after descent + Distance of descent
(6.05 miles + 1.5 miles)
= 7.55 miles

I'm going to take a guess at this and say what you meant is 2401 = 7^(6 - 2x)
Step One
Find out the power of 7 that will equal 2401.
You could do it like this.
7^y = 2401 and just guess at some values.
y 7^y
1 7
2 49
3 7 * 7 * 7 = 343
4 7 * 7 * 7 * 7 = 2401 So the answer is 4
7^4 = 2401
Step 2
Equate the powers.
2401 = 7^(6 - 2x)
7^4 = 7^ (6 - 2x)
4 = 6 - 2x Subtract 6 from both sides.
4 - 6 = - 2x
-2 = - 2x divide by - 2
-2/-2 = x
x = 1 <<<<<<<<<<<<<answer
