We are given the following equation:

$a^2+17=42$

Subtract both sides by 17

$a^2=25$

Take the positive/negative square root of both sides

$a=\pm5$

This should be your answer. Let me know if you have any questions, thanks!

natita [175]

Answer:

$x\geq 29,000$ and $x\leq 41,000$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the altitude of a commercial aircraft

we know that

The expression " A minimum altitude of 29,000 feet" is equal to

$x\geq 29,000$

All real numbers greater than or equal to 29,000 ft

The expression " A maximum altitude of 41,000 feet" is equal to

$x\leq 41,000$

All real numbers less than or equal to 41,000 ft

therefore

The compound inequality is equal to

$x\geq 29,000$ and $x\leq 41,000$

All real numbers greater than or equal to 29,000 ft and less than or equal to 41,000 ft

The solution is the interval ------> [29,000,41,000]
