Answer:
1st one 6.4
Step-by-step explanation:
C^2= a^2 +b^2
C^2 = 5^2 + 4^2
C^2 = 25 + 16
C^2= 41
Root of 41 is 6.4
You're using inverse operation to solve this equation. Now you just have to think about it. What number plus 20 would equal the same number squared? The answer would be 5, since
5+20=5^2
25=25
The statement above is true :)
Another number that would work for the equation would be x= -4
-4+20=-4^2
16=16
The statement above is also true so your answer would be x=-4 and 5
Since the altitude started at 240 ft then that will be the constant, and, since it descends 30 ft/min, then 30 will be your slope.
y=30x+240<span />
