Answer:

The required equation is x+295=285 , where x= starting altitude( in feet).

The starting altitude is -11 feet.

Let x be the starting altitude( in feet) .

Given: The Hiking Club is taking another trip. The hike leader's watch shows that they gained 296 feet in altitude from their starting position.

Then, the altitude is now = x+ 296

Since their altitude is now 285 feet.

So the required equation is x+296=285

Subtract 296 from both sides, we get

x= -11

Answer:

x= -11

Step-by-step explanation:

the altitude is now = x+ 296

Their altitude is now 285 feet.

So the required equation is x+296=285

Subtract 296 from both sides, we get

x= -11

This is a picture of a square pyramid and the net for the square pyramid.
Lelu [443]
We know that
surface area of the square pyramid=area of the base+4*[area of lateral triangle]

area of the base=b²----> area of square
b=6 ft
area of square=6*6---> 36 ft²

area of lateral triangle=b*h/2
b=6 ft
h=9 ft
area of lateral triangle=6*9/2---> 27 ft²

surface area of the square pyramid=36+4*27----> 144 ft²

the answer is
144 ft²

Explain how to rewrite the equation -2x - 6y = 18 in slope-intercept form.
MrMuchimi

Answer:

y = -1/3x -3

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x - 6y = 18

We want to solve for y since the slope intercept form is y =mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

Add 2x to each side

-2x-6y +2x = 2x+18

-6y = 2x+18

Divide each side by -6

-6y/-6 = 2x/-6 + 18/-6

y = -1/3x -3

This is in slope intercept form with the slope -1/3 and the y intercept -3
