Answer:
0.0625
Step-by-step explanation:
6x+1 = 3(2x-4)
-4(x+3) = 4(x-1)
If alonzo is x then the equation is
x + (x +3) + 2(x + 3) = 57
Which equals
x + x + 3 + 2x + 6 = 57
4x + 9 = 57
4x = 48
x = 12
This means alonzo is 12 years old and alexis is 3 years older so alexis is 15 years old
Answer = 15 years old
First, you plot the coordinates to visualize the problem clearly. As you can see in the picture, the longest sides could either be one of those marked in red. This could be initially determined when you use visual estimation. We measure this using the distance formula: d = √[(x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2)]
Between coordinates (0,3) and (3,6)
d = √[(3-0)^2 + (6-3)^2)]
d= 4.24 units
Between coordinates (2,1) and (5,4)
d = √[(5-2)^2 + (4-1)^2)]
d= 4.24 units
They are of equal length. Both are the longest sides which measures
4.24 units.
