Ni Hua is an adventurous traveler. He skydives twice in every island he visits and skydives thrice in every peninsula he visits.

Let the number of islands visited be x and that peninsulas be y
thus,
x+y=19
⇒y=19-x.........i
if he skydives twice in islands and thrice in peninsulas, then the total number of skydives will be:
2x+3y=45.....ii

substituting i in ii we get:
2x+3(19-x)=45
2x+57-3x=45
putting like terms together we get:
2x-3x=45-57
-x=-12
therefore
x=12
and
y=19-x=19-12=7
hence the number of islands visited was 12 and that of peninsulas was 7

Find the distance between E(-3,4) and B(-1,6)​
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>2 \sqrt{2 }  \:  \: or \:  \: 2.828 \:  \:  \: units</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points can be found by using the formula

<h3>d =  \sqrt{ ({x1 - x2})^{2}  +  ({y1 - y2})^{2} }  \\</h3>

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

E(-3,4) and B(-1,6)

The distance between them is

<h3>|EB|  =  \sqrt{ ({ - 3 + 1})^{2} +  ({4 - 6})^{2}  }  \\  =  \sqrt{ ({ - 2})^{2}  +  ({ - 2})^{2} }  \\  =  \sqrt{4 + 4}  \ \   \\  = \sqrt{8}</h3>

We have the final answer as

<h3>2 \sqrt{2 }  \:  \: or \:  \: 2.828 \:  \:  \: units</h3>

Hope this helps you

9. Identify the correct property being shown.
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

-16.4, (commutative property)

Step-by-step explanation:

(add, because they are both negatives) -5.2+(-8.4)= -13.6

Then add the (-2.8): -13.6 + (-2.8) = -16.4

Thats your first equation!!!

do the same thing for the other one, and by the way it the same answer.

Its commutative prop because its just switching positions and its adding negatives.
