Answer:

H = h + x

h = 568 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The helicopter descends 114 meters to be 454 meters above the ground.

Therefore, the equation which describes this situation using h as the original height will be given by  

H = h + x ....... (1)

Where H is the final height from the ground and x is the height that the helicopter ascends(Positive sign) or descends(Negative sign). (Answer)

Here, in our case, H = 454 meters and x = -114 meters.

Therefore, the original height of the helicopter from ground will be  

h = H - x = 454 - (-114) = 568 meters. (Answer)

Can you help me with these two because I don't understand​
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer: 1: 34 units    2: 24.5

Step-by-step explanation:

For figure 1, just split the area into squares and triangles and find the area of each. If you split figure 1 into 1 square and 3 triangles you get...

4x4= 16

(4x3)/2= 6

(4x4)/2= 8

(4x2)/2= 3

16+6+8+3 = 34

You do the same for figure 2, but use 4 triangles and 1 tiny square

1x1= 1

(4x3)/2= 6

(3x3)/2= 4.5

(4x4)/2= 8

(5x5)/2= 5

1+6+4.5+8+5= 24.5

You shouldn't need to worry about negative numbers because you are looking at the area

In response to very high demand, a new bike has been marked up by 25% and is now selling for 210.00. how much was the bike befor
harina [27]
Call the price of the bike before mark up 'x', then we have:

x + 0.25x = 210
      1.25x = 210 
             x = 168

Therefore, the bike cost $168 before 25% price increase.
