Answer:

62.4 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The way to determine this is to set up a proportion,

5 cm/24 miles = 13 cm/x miles,

and then solve for x by cross multiplying,

5*x = 24*13.

<em>If you don’t understand that step, try writing it out on paper with fractions instead of division signs.</em> Next, solve.

x = 62.4

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

The value of x = 5 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the right-angled triangle ∆ABC with the following dimensions

AC = a = 12

BC = c = hypotenuse = 13

AB = b = x

Pythagorean Theorem

For a right-angled triangle with the sides, a and b the hypotenuse c is defined as:

c=\sqrt{a^2+b^2}

Thus, using the Pythagorean Theorem to determine the value 'x',

b=\sqrt{c^2-a^2}

as b = x, so

x=\sqrt{c^2-a^2}

  • a = 12
  • c = 13

so

x=\sqrt{13^2-12^2}

x=5

Therefore, the value of x = 5 units.

Since the expression (x-4)^2+(y+1)^2 evaluated at (3,6) is
stiks02 [169]

\bf (x-4)^2+(y+1)^2\qquad (3,6)~~ \begin{cases} x = 3\\ y = 6 \end{cases}\implies (3-4)^2+(6+1)^2 \\\\\\ (-1)^2+7^2\implies 1+49\implies 50
