Well, the formula is a^2 + b^2 = c^2. Put your numbers in your equation. 9^2 + 2^2 = c^2. Now simplify the left side. 85=c^2. Now find the square root from both each side. The answer is =~9.22. But I don’t see the answer, sorry

To find the hypotenuse use the formula c=√a²+b². Also it doesn't matter which numbers replaces a or b, just remember that the hypotenuse is always the greatest number.

c=√9²+2²

c=√81+4

c=√85≈9.22 inches

The path of a projectile launched from a 20-ft-tall tower is modeled by the equation y = -5x2 + 40x + 20. What is the maximum he
Otrada [13]

Answer:

30.49 m

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain the maximum height, we solve for the value x when dy/dx = 0.

Since, y = -5x² + 40x + 20

dy/dx = d[-5x² + 40x + 20]/dx

dy/dx = -10x + 40

Since dy/dx = 0,

-10x + 40 = 0

-10x = -40

x = -40/-10

x = 4

Substituting x = 4 into the equation for y, we have

y = -5x² + 40x + 20

y = -5(4)² + 40(4) + 20

y = -5(16) + 160 + 20

y = -80 + 160 + 20

y = 80 + 20

y = 100 ft

Since y is in feet, we convert to meters.

Since 1 m = 3.28 ft, 100 ft = 100 ft × 1 m/3.28 ft = 30.49 m

So, the maximum height, in meters  reached by the projectile is 30.49 m
