Answer:
I am pretty sure there are 10 people in line.
Since Ashley is the seventh person in line, we can deduce that <u><em>there are 6 people in front of her</em></u>.
Since the amount of people in front of her is "twice as many people as there are behind her," we can divide the value of the people in front of her in half to get the value of people behind her.
6/2 is 3, so <em>there are </em><u><em>3 people behind Ashley</em></u><em>. </em>
Now, lets add the amount of people in front of Ashley to the amount of people behind her. 3 + 6 = 9, and since Ashley is also in the line, we should add 1 to the sum.
9 + 1 = 10, so <u><em>there are 10 people in the line</em></u>.
Answer:
The answer is 5.
Step-by-step explanation:
(2x+3)(x+1) Use the FOIL METHOD
2x²+2x+3x+3
2x²+5x+3.
Okay, so first you draw a picture and let x be the distance from point D to the rest stop. Then the distance from point to the rest stop is 8 - x
You know that the length of the new trail is y + z, where y is the distance from Ancaster to the rest stop and z is the distance from Dundas to the rest stop.
Now by the Pythagorean theorem, y^2 = 4^2 + x^2 and z^2 = 6^2 + (8 - x) ^2
So take square roots of these, add them, and minimize.
Note: I am assuming the path is perfectly straight, otherwise this approach fails.
