Length (2, 6) to (-4, 6) is sqrt((x2 - x1))^2 + (y2 - y1)^2) = sqrt((-4 -2)^2 + (6 - 6)^2) = sqrt((-6)^2 + 0) = 6

Length (2, 6) to (-4, 4) is sqrt((-4 - 2)^2 + (4 - 6)^2) = sqrt((-6)^2 + (-2)^2) = sqrt(36 + 4) = sqrt(40)  = 2sqrt(10) units

Length (-4, 6) to (-4, 4) is sqrt((-4 - (-4))^2 + (4 - 6)^2) = sqrt(0^2 + (-2)^2) = 2

Therefore, the length of the longest side is 2sqrt(10) units

Jim and his dad are building a rectangular flower bed. They have a total of 35 feet of landscaping timber to use, and they want
Mama L [17]
The perimeter is 35.  If we were to change the width, which is one of the dimensions of the flower bed, The perimeter will change.  This means that perimeter will no longer be 35.  So in order to keep the perimeter as it is, if we change one dimension, we must also change the other. Let's solve for the length, using the formula to see how much the length changes from. p = 2l + 2w 35 = 2l + 2(15) 35 = 2l + 30 5 = 2l 2.5 = l  We must increase the length from 2.5 feet.  This is because decreasing one dimension will decrease the perimeter.  But if we increase the other dimension as well, it will restore the perimeter to where is was initially.

Reese went cycling in the morning .The ratio of her distance in miles to the length of time in minutes was 15:60 tease concluded
rodikova [14]

Answer:

No, she is not correct as her speed is 0.25 miles per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Ratio of distance  to time taken is 15 : 60.

Distance is in miles and length of time is in minutes.

We know that, average speed is given as the ratio of the distance traveled and the length of the time taken.

So, the ratio above is nothing but the average speed of Reese for cycling.

Thus, average speed of Reese is given as:

\textrm{Average speed}=\frac{Distance}{Time}\\\\\textrm{Average speed}=\frac{15}{60}\ miles\ per\ min\\\\\textrm{Average speed}=\frac{1}{4} = 0.25\ miles\ per\ min

Therefore, the average speed of Reese is 0.25 miles per minute which is not equal to the one mentioned by Reese as 4 miles per minute.

So, Reese conclusion of her average speed is incorrect. It's not 4 but the reciprocal of 4 which is 0.25 miles per minute.
