Kelly is in a hot air balloon that has just taken off and is now floating 7 meters above its launching point. Denise is standing on the ground, 7 meters away from the launching point. How far apart are Kelly and Denise? If necessary, round to the nearest tenth. For 8th grade\

9.9 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the distance between Kelly and launching point was 7m and also the distance between launching point and Dennis was also 7m, to calculate for the distance between Kelly and denise is done by applying the formula used for calculating the hypotenuse in a right angle triangle (the shape that was created)

PICTURE ATTACHED IS A DETAILED STEP BY STEP PROCESS OF HOW 9.9m WAS GOTTEN.

in mathematics, a function is a relationship between two variables such that the value of one of the variables, called the dependent variable, is determined by the value of the other variable, called the independent variable. there is a specific term we use to describe the set of independent variables of a function.
