Before we calculate we can use some common sence thinknig to narrow down the choices. We know that Robert is gonig DOWN the hill, so it doesnt make sence that he woudl have a positive rate of change (i.e. the number feet up the hill he is is decreasing, not increasing) So right away, A & B are clearly wrong.

If we look at the last two (C & D) we can see that if -460 were right after 10 minutes he would have walked down 4,600 feet. This is WAY more that the total height of the hill and so can't be correct.

So C must be correct.

We can check this with some simple math:
rate = \frac{end-start}{time} = \frac{0ft-1380ft}{30mins}= -46\frac{ft}{min}

Maggie graphed the image of a 90 counterclockwise rotation about vertex A of . Coordinates B and C of are (2, 6) and (4, 3) and
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

A(2,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the vertex A has coordinates (x_A,y_A)

Vectors AB and AB' are perpendicular, then

\overrightarrow {AB}=(2-x_A,6-y_A)\\ \\\overrightarrow {AB'}=(-2-x_A,2-y_A)\\ \\\overrightarrow {AB}\perp\overrightarrow {AB'}\Rightarrow \overrightarrow {AB}\cdot \overrightarrow {AB'}=0\Rightarrow (2-x_A)(-2-x_A)+(6-y_A)(2-y_A)=0

Vectors AC and AC' are perpendicular, then

\overrightarrow {AC}=(4-x_A,3-y_A)\\ \\\overrightarrow {AC'}=(1-x_A,4-y_A)\\ \\\overrightarrow {AC}\perp\overrightarrow {AC'}\Rightarrow \overrightarrow {AC}\cdot \overrightarrow {AC'}=0\Rightarrow (4-x_A)(1-x_A)+(3-y_A)(4-y_A)=0

Now, solve the system of two equations:

\left\{\begin{array}{l}(2-x_A)(-2-x_A)+(6-y_A)(2-y_A)=0\\ \\(4-x_A)(1-x_A)+(3-y_A)(4-y_A)=0\end{array}\right.\\ \\\left\{\begin{array}{l}-4-2x_A+2x_A+x_A^2+12-6y_A-2y_A+y^2_A=0\\ \\4-4x_A-x_A+x_A^2+12-3y_A-4y_A+y_A^2=0\end{array}\right.\\ \\\left\{\begin{array}{l}x_A^2+y_A^2-8y_A+8=0\\ \\x_A^2+y_A^2-5x_A-7y_A+16=0\end{array}\right.

Subtract these two equations:

5x_A-y_A-8=0\Rightarrow y_A=5x_A-8

Substitute it into the first equation:

x_A^2+(5x_A-8)^2-8(5x_A-8)+8=0\\ \\x_A^2+25x_A^2-80x_A+64-40x_A+64+8=0\\ \\26x_A^2-120x_A+136=0\\ \\13x_A^2-60x_A+68=0\\ \\D=(-60)^2-4\cdot 13\cdot 68=3600-3536=64\\ \\x_{A_{1,2}}=\dfrac{60\pm8}{2\cdot 13}=\dfrac{34}{13},2

Then

y_{A_{1,2}}=5\cdot \dfrac{34}{13}-8 \text{ or } 5\cdot 2-8\\ \\=\dfrac{66}{13}\text{ or } 2

Rotation by 90° counterclockwise about A(2,2) gives image points B' and C' (see attached diagram)
