STAN walk 10 km to the grocery store.

He stops then walks 10 km east back to his house.

Let us draw this situation to better understand the problem.

As you can see, Stan first walked to the grocery store and covered a distance of 10 km then he came back to the house from the grocery store and covered a distance of 10 km.

So the total distance is 10 + 10 = 20 km

On the other hand, notice that Stan is exactly at the point where he first started that is his house, therefore, the displacement is 0 in this case.

Recall that the displacement is a vector quantity so the direction of travel also matters.

From house to grocery store = 10 km

From the grocery store to house = -10 km

Overall displacement = 10 km - 10 km = 0 km

Therefore,

Distance = 20 km

Displacement = 0 km

The image shows a geometric representation of the function f(x) = x2 – 2x – 6 written in standard form. An algebra tile configur
Over [174]

Answer:

f(x)=(x-1)^2-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form:

f(x)=x^2-2x-6

Vertex form:

y=(x-h)^2+k

(h, k) is the vertex

x is the coordinate of the vertex

To find x use the formula:

x=\frac{-h}{2a}

f(x)=x^2-2x-6

a=1

b=-2

c=-6

Substitute:

x=\frac{-(-2)}{2(1)}=1

Substitute x in equation:

f(x)=1^2-2(1)-6\\f(x)=1-2-6\\f(x)=-7

h=1

k=-7

Substitute h, and k into the vertex formula:

f(x)=(x-1)^2-7

Matt, a 180 pound (82 kg) male, goes to a party and is served beer in a 16-ounce (473 ml) red plastic cup. he has 3 cups of beer
goblinko [34]

4 Standard drinks he has consumed in over a two - hour time period.

<h3>What is Unitary Method?</h3>

The unitary method is a method in which you find the value of a unit and then the value of a required number of units.

For example: 5 cars have price of $500. what will be the price of 10 cars.

Now, we know

5 cars → $500

1 car → $500/5

1 car → $100

10 cars → 8 x $100

10 cars → $800

The standard drink contains 12 - ounce of beer.

Here, we have given 1 red cup which has 16 - ounce of beer.

He has 3 red cups.

So, total ounce of beer he has consumed in two hour time period:

16 x 3 = 48 ounce of beer.

Now, as we know standard drink contains 12 - ounce of beer.

so, Number of standard drink = 48/12 = 4

Hence, 4 Standard drinks he has consumed in over a two - hour time period.

The slope of a line is 5/9 and the slope of another line is -975. The two lines<br> are
Bond [772]

Answer:

the third option - they are perpendicular to each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

for a perpendicular slope we need to exchange the x and y values (remember, a slope is the ratio of y/x) and flip the sign.

and that is exactly what happened here.

How do you solve each system of equations?
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

x=1,y=3,z=1

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-4y+4z=-4

4x=-4+4y-4z

x=-1+y-z

Substitute  x=-1+y-z into second equation:

4\left(-1+y-z\right)+y-2z=5

-4+4y-4z+y-2z=5

5y-6z-4=5

y=\frac{6z+9}{5}

Substitute x=-1+y-z and y=\frac{6z+9}{5} into the third equation:

\frac{-41z-54}{5}+3=-16

-41z-54=-95

z=1

Substitute z=1 into y=\frac{6z+9}{5}:

y=3

Plug in y and z values into x=-1+y-z:

x=1
