Answer:

the hawk has flow 824.62 meters southwest of the mountain peak.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the distance we need to use the Pythagoras theorem

d^2 = 800^2 + 200^2

d= 824.6 m

we can find the direction by using the eq for a tangent

he opposite side is 200 m and the adjacent side is 800m

tan theta = opposite / adjacent

theta = arc tan (800/200)

The hawk is at a distance of 824.6m flying at an angle 76 degrees NE of the mountain peak.

The final location will be southwest of the mountain peek.

a2+b2=c2

a = 200

b= 800

c = √(2002+8002) = 824.62

So the hawk has flow 824.62 meters southwest of the mountain peak.

Solve w^2 + 7w - 18 = 0<br><br>with the steps pls​
Bess [88]

Answer:

w=2  w = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

w^2 + 7w - 18 = 0

We can factor this equation

What 2 numbers multiply to -18 and add to 7

9*-2 = -18

9+-2 = 7

(w-2) (w+9) = 0

Using the zero product property

w-2 = 0    w+9 =0

w=2  w = -9

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

Since radical 45 is equal to radical 9 times radical 5, and because radical 9 is equal to 3 (since 9 is a perfect square), we can simplify radical 45 to 3 times radical 5
