Answer:

8feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation that models the arch of a school expressed as;

$y=-0.5\left(x+4\right)\left(x-4\right)$

If the x axis represents the ground;

At the ground level, x = 0

Substitute x = 0 into the equation to get y;

y = -0.5(0+4)(0-4)

y = -0.5(4)(-4)

y = -0.5 * -16

y = 8ft

Hence the y axis at the ground level is 8feet

Help easy math question!!!

Answer:

The length of the third side of the triangle is 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the formula for the Pythagorean Theorem:

a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}

The hypotenuse, based on the problem, is 50. Anyways, let's get back to calculating!

We need to multiply 40 times 40 and 50 times 50.

40 times 40, or 40 squared, equals to 1600.

50 times 50, or 50 squared, equals to 2500.

c^{2} - b^{2}  = a^{2}

Now, let's subtract. 2500 - 1600 = 900. We need to find the square root of 900--which is 30, because 30 times 30, or 30 squared, equals to 900.

<h3>Solution :- </h3>

  • 2x + 42 = 90
  • 2x = 90 - 42
  • 2x = 48
  • x = 48/2
  • x = 24
