Points A, B, and C, form a triangle. The distance between point A and point B is 15 yards. The distance between point B and poin

t C is 25 yards. Pete walks directly from point A to point C, without passing through point B. What is the direct distance from A to C?
How far would Pete walk if he went from A to B to C? yards

The direct distance from A to C is more than yards.

The inequality w < represents the distance, w, that Pete might save by taking the direct path.

The total distance if Pete walks from A to B to C is 40 yards, the direct distance from A to C is more than 10 yards, and an inequality w < 30

<h3>What is inequality?</h3>

It is defined as the expression in mathematics in which both sides are not equal they have mathematical signs either less than or greater than known as inequality.

We have:

Points A, B, and C, form a triangle. The distance between point A and point B is 15 yards. The distance between point B and point C is 25 yards.

Total distance if Pete walks from A to B to C:

= 15 + 25 = 40 yards

As we know in the triangle the sum of the two sides is greater than the third side.

25 + 15 > AC

The direct distance from A to C is more than 10(25-15) yards.

The inequality w < 30 represents the distance, w, that Pete might save by taking the direct path.

Thus, the total distance if Pete walks from A to B to C is 40 yards, the direct distance from A to C is more than 10 yards, and an inequality w < 30

How do u solve two points using the distance formula?
aliya0001 [1]

Step-by-step explanation:

For two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂), the distance between them is:

d² = (x₁ − x₂)² + (y₁ − y₂)²

The order of points 1 and 2 don't matter.  You can switch it:

d² = (x₂ − x₁)² + (y₂ − y₁)²

This is basically the Pythagorean theorem for a coordinate system.

Let's do an example.  If you have points (1, 2) and (4, 6), then the distance between them is:

d² = (4 − 1)² + (6 − 2)²

d² = 3² + 4²

d² = 9 + 16

d² = 25

d = 5

If you have points with negative coordinates, remember that subtracting a negative is the same as adding a positive.

For example, the distance between (-1, -2) and (4, 10) is:

d² = (4 − (-1))² + (10 − (-2))²

d² = (4 + 1)² + (10 + 2)²

d² = 5² + 12²

d² = 25 + 144

d² = 169

d = 13

You are paid $7.25/hour. You work 40 hours/week for 2 weeks. Your involuntary deductions are FICA (7.65%), federal withholding (
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

$413.83

Step-by-step explanation:

Your earnings for the two weeks are

7.25(40)(2) = 580

The deductions for FICA will be

0.0765(580) = 44.37

The deductions for federal withholding will be

0.14(580) = 81.2

The deductions for state withholding will be

0.07(580) = 40.6

This makes your realized income

580-(44.37+81.2+40.6) = 580-166.17 = 413.83

When should you use the distributive property?
lorasvet [3.4K]

The distributive property is used when you have a value multiplied by 2 values separated by an operation.

For example, if you have x (y + z), then you would use the distributive property to get x (y + z) = xy + xz.

Use the square root property to solve x^2-9=0<br> Please help and please show work if you can
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

x = 3 or -3

Step-by-step explanation:

So you have the equation x² - 9 = 0

Move the 9 to the other side: x² = 9

Then take the square root of both sides: \sqrt{x^{2} } = ±\sqrt{9}

x = ±\sqrt{9} = ±3

x = 3 or -3
