Answer: 19 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, since the situation forms a right triangle (see attachment) we have to apply the Pythagorean Theorem:  

c^2 = a^2 + b^2  

Where c is the hypotenuse of the triangle (in this case the distance between the hiker and the camp) and a and b are the other sides.  

Replacing with the values given:  

x^2 = 6^2 + 18^2  

x^2 = 36+324

x^2 = 360

x = √360

x = 18.97miles = 19 miles

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

2) 2x-y=4

3) y-2x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b

y=3/7x+18

-18=3/7x

x=-42

Which expression is equal to -3b(6b^-8)
zimovet [89]

Answer:a^2/b

Step-by-step explanation:

(a^6b^−3)1^/3

a^6 ^ 1/3  b ^ -3 ^ 1/3

using the power of power rule we can multiply the exponents

a ^ (6*1/3) b ^ (-3* 1/3)

a^ 2 b ^ -1

the negative exponent flips it from the numerator to the denominator

a^2* 1/ b^1

a^2/b

The function A(b) relates the area of a trapezoid with a given height of 10 and
Natali [406]

Answer:

B(a)=\frac{a}{5} -7

Step-by-step explanation:

The input it taken as the unknown base value, while the output here is the area of the trapezoid. b is therefore the base value, and A( b ) is the area of the trapezoid. Let's formulate the equation for the area of the trapezoid, and isolate the area of the trapezoid. To find the inverse of this function, switch y ( this is A( b ) ) and b, solving for y once more, y ➡ y ⁻ ¹.

y = height * ( ( unknown base value ( b ) + 7 ) / 2 ),

y = 10 * ( ( b + 7 ) / 2 )

Now switch the positions of y and b -

b = 10 * ( ( y + 7 ) / 2 ) or b=\frac{\left(y+7\right)\cdot \:10}{2} - now that we are going to take the inverse ( y ⁻ ¹ ) or B( a ), b will now be changed to a,

y+7=\frac{a}{5},

y^{-1}=\frac{a}{5}-7 = B(a)

Therefore the equation that represents the inverse function will be the following : B(a) = a / 5 - 7
