50^2 + 30^2 = x^2

2500 + 900 = x^2

3400 = x^2

x = sqrt(3400)

x = 58.31

height is 58.31 feet ( round answer as needed)

Find the equation of the line with slope = -4 and passing through (9,-29). Write your equation in the form

Vlad [161]

Answer:

y = -4x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

As we can see, we want to write the equation of the line

we have this as;

y = -4x + b

To get the y-intercept, we use the values in the point given

we substitute x = 9 and y = -29

So we have;

-29 = -4(9) + b

-29 = -36 + b

b = 36-29

b = 7

So the equation is;

y = -4x + 7

$a^2+16^2=20^2$

$a^2+256=400$

Subtracting 256 from both sides

$a^2=144$

Taking squareroot both sides

$a= \sqrt144$

$a = \sqrt2.2.3.2.2.3$

$a=12$

Therefore length of missing leg is

$a = 12 units$
