The Pythagorean theorem a²+b²=c²
16²+18²=c²
256+324 = 580
√580
24=4x-6
(add six both sides)
30=4x
(divide 4 both sides.)
7.5=x (roughly)
Answer:
it will be 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Well every time it gets rid of a shell it grows 1 1/3 times larger. So so to see how much it grows after the first time you say
1 cm * 1 1/3 = 1 1/3 cm
to get the next one you do the same
1 1/3 cm * 1 1/3 cm = 16/9
It will keep going multiplying by 1 1/3. So so we can say in an equation that the
(initial size) * 1 1/3 *(number of shells) = length
Or 1cm * 1 1/3 * n = L
We we know the final length is 10cm
So 1 1/3 * n = 10cm
n = 7.5shells
so approximately 7 or 8 shells
Y-axis, because what i’ve been taught with coordinates, is you crawl before you walk which means is first it’s x-axis then y-axis. so (0,4) would be on the y-axis. :)
First step, divide 6 from both sides.
t/6=r^2+1
second step, subtract 1 from both sides
t/6 -1=r^2
Now take the square root of each side.

Done!
