Answer:

h = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Pythagorean Theorem to solve for h.

a² + b² = c²

8² + h² = 17²

64 + h² = 289

h² = 225

h = 15

A line passes through 2, -1 and 4, 5 what is the equation

SVEN [57.7K]

y1 - y2 / x1 - x2

-1 - 5 / 2 - 4

-6/-2

y = mx + b

-1 = 3(2) + b

-1 = 6 + b

-7 = b

y = 3x - 7

Hope this helps! ;)

On a vacation in Puerto Rico rose jumped off a cliff into a river in El Yunque go forest reserve her height as a function of tim

gayaneshka [121]

Answer: t = 6 s

Step-by-step explanation:

When Rose hit the water, the height of the jump is 0, so: h(t) = 0.

Resolving it, we have:

-16t² + 16t + 480 = 0

To simplify the second degree equation, divided it by 16:

-t² + t + 30 = 0

Now, solve the equation using Bhaskara:

Δ = 1² - 4. (-1) . 30

Δ = 1 + 120

Δ = 121

t = $\frac{-1+\sqrt{121} }{-2}$

t₁ = $\frac{-1 + 11}{-2}$ = - 5

t₂ = $\frac{-11-11}{-2}$ = 6

Since time can be negative, it took t = 6s for Rose to hit the water.

assume the the parent graph is y=x^2-2 write the equation of the parabola that would move it down 5 units

REY [17]

Answer:

Y= 1 (x^2-2)-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Use vertex form: y= a(x-h)+k: k is what shifts the parbola up or down. Positive shifts it up while negative shifts it down.
