An incoming airplane is x miles due north from the control tower at an airport. a second incoming airplane is y miles due east of the same control tower. the shortest distance between the two airplanes is z miles.
which of the following functions would best model the situation above?
a.
cube root
b.
square root
c.
piecewise
d.
step

B. Square root

Step-by-step explanation:

using distance formula:

x = √z^2 - y^2

y = √z^2 - x^2

=> z = √x^2 + y^2

Option B. square root

Step-by-step explanation:

An incoming airplane is x miles due North at A from the control tower and a second airplane is y miles East at B of the same control tower.

The shortest distance between the two airplanes is z miles.

By Pythagoras Theorem

z² = x² + y²

z = √(x² + y²)

So function which models the situation best is "square root".

Therefore, option B. square root is the answer.

the answer is: d) o, f, and kr.

atomic radius of bromine (br) is 114 pm.

atomic radius of oxygen (o) is 73 pm.

atomic radius of fluorine (f) is 72 pm.

atomic radius of krypron (kr) is 112 pm.

the atomic radius of a chemical element is a measure of the size of its atom.

the atomic radius varies with increasing atomic number, but usually increases because of increasing of number of electrons.

the atomic radius decreases across the periods because an increasing number of protons, because greater attraction between the protons and electrons.
