Solve for x. Round to the nearest tenth.

x ≈ 7.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is

x² + 12² = 14²

x² + 144 = 196 ( subtract 144 from both sides )

x² = 52 ( take square root of both sides )

x = ≈ 7.2 ( to the nearest tenth )

hm let me think hm think think hm think yes

given : the shape of his satellite can be modeled by   where x and y are modeled in inches.

now,the given equation   is a equation of parabola.

here, coefficient of x is positive, hence the parabola opens rightwards.

on comparing this equation with standard equation , we get

in standard equation, coordinates of focus=(0,m)

thus for given equation coordinates of focus=(0,1.5)
