<u>Part a)</u> If both ants skate directly towards each other, starting at the same time and skating the same speed, what will be the coordinates of their meeting place?

Let

A(3,4)  B(33.44)

we know that

If both ants skate directly towards each other, starting at the same time and skating the same speed

then

the coordinates of their meeting place is the midpoint AB

<u>Find the midpoint AB</u>

in the x-coordinate

(3+33)/2=18

in the y-coordinate

(4+44)/2=24

the midpoint AB is (18,24)

therefore

<u>the answer Part a) is </u>

the coordinates of their meeting place is (18,24)

<u>Part b)</u> How far will each ant skate?

<u>Find the distance AB</u>

d=\sqrt{(x2-x1)^{2}+(y2-y1)^{2}}

substitute the values

dAB=\sqrt{(33-3)^{2}+(44-4)^{2}}

dAB=\sqrt{2,500} units

dAB=50 units

<u>Find the half distance AB</u>

50/2=25 units

therefore

<u>the answer part b) is</u>

Each ant will skate 25 units

(10 + 3x) = 5x<br> Solve please
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

10 +3x = 5x

Subtract 3x from each side

10+3x-3x= 5x-3x

10 =2x

Divide each side by 2

10/2 = 2x/2

5 =x

Pedro wants to walk from the historic village to the science center. Then he will walk from the science center to the museum. If
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed = 2 7/ 10 miles per hour

From the chart attached :

Distance between historic village and science center : (-4 1/2, 5 1/4) to (-4 1/2, -1 3/4)

Taking the sum of the absolute value of the y coordinate :

|5 1/4| + |-1 3/4| = 5 + 1 + 1/4 + 3/4 = 7

From science center to museum :

(-4 1/2, - 1 3/4) to (2, - 1 3/4)

Taking the sum of the absolute value of the x coordinate :

|4 1/2| + |2| = 4 + 2 + 1/2 = 6 1/2

Total distance traveled = 7 + 61/2 = 13 1/2 miles

Time taken = Distance / speed

Time taken = 13 1/2 ÷ 2 7/10

Time taken = 27/2 * 10/27

Time taken = 10/2

Time taken = 5 hours
