I need help on finding an equation!?

Your distance from Seattle after two hours of driving at 62 mph, from a starting point 38 miles east of Seattle, will be (38 + [62 mph][2 hr] ) miles, or 162 miles (east).

Your friend will be (20 + [65 mph][2 hrs] ) miles, or 150 miles south of Seattle.

Comparing 162 miles and 150 miles, we see that you will be further from Seattle than your friend after 2 hours.

After how many hours will you and your friend be the same distance from Seattle?  Equate 20 + [65 mph]t to 38 + [62 mph]t and solve the resulting equation for time, t:

20 + [65 mph]t  = 38 + [62 mph]t

Subtract [62 mph]t  from both sides of this equation, obtaining:

20 + [3 mph]t = 38.  Then [3 mph]t = 18, and t = 6 hours.

You and your friend will be the same distance from Seattle (but in different directions) after 6 hours.

The quadrilateral ABCD on a coordinate plane has the following characteristics.
kirza4 [7]

Answer with explanation:

Property of Quadrilateral A B CD

⇒Equation of Line AD is, y= -3 x.

⇒Equation of Line BC is, y= -3 x +11

Coordinates of CD = C(2,5) and D(-1,3)

Equation of line CD will be

  \frac{y-5}{x-2}=\frac{3-5}{-1-2}\\\\-3 \times (y-5)=-2\times (x-2)\\\\-3 y +15=-2 x +4\\\\2 x -3 y +11=0

Equation of line AB will be, which is parallel to CD, as opposite sides of parallelogram are parallel and equal,is equal to

    2 x -3 y + k=0

Because when lines are parallel their slopes are equal.

→→Equation of line AD is , y= - 3 x.

Coordinates of point A can be calculated by

→2 x -3 × (-3 x ) +k=0

→2 x +9 x +k=0

\rightarrow x=\frac{-k}{11}\\\\\rightarrow y=\frac{3k}{11}

→→→Similarly, Coordinate of point D can be calculated by solving these two lines:

   y = -3 x + 11

  2 x -3 y + k=0

→2 x -3 × (-3 x +11) +k=0

→2 x +9 x -33 +k=0

→11 x =33 -k

x=\frac{33-k}{11}

y=-3 \times \frac{33-k}{11}+11\\\\y=\frac{-99+3 k+121}{11}\\\\y=\frac{22+3 k}{11}

→→Coordinates of A is (\frac{-k}{11},\frac{3k}{11})

Coordinates of Point D is (\frac{33-k}{11},\frac{22+3k}{11}).

you, can get infinite number of ordered pairs, for different value of k.

For, k=0 ,

A= (0,0)

D=(3,2)
