The minimum distance will be along a perpendicular line to the river that passes through the point (7,5)
4x+3y=12
3y=-4x+12
y=-4x/3+12/3
So a line perpendicular to the bank will be:
y=3x/4+b, and we need it to pass through (7,5) so
5=3(7)/4+b
5=21/4+b
20/4-21/4=b
-1/4=b so the perpendicular line is:
y=3x/4-1/4
So now we want to know the point where this perpendicular line meets with the river bank. When it does y=y so we can say:
(3x-1)/4=(-4x+12)/3 cross multiply
3(3x-1)=4(-4x+12)
9x-3=-16x+48
25x=51
x=51/25
x=2.04
y=(3x-1)/4
y=(3*2.04-1)/4
y=1.28
So now that we know the point on the river that is closest to Avery we can calculate his distance from that point...
d^2=(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2
d^2=(7-2.04)^2+(5-1.28)^2
d^2=38.44
d=√38.44
d=6.2 units
Since he can run at 10 uph...
t=d/v
t=6.2/10
t=0.62 hours (37 min 12 sec)
So it will take him 0.62 hours or 37 minutes and 12 seconds for him to reach the river.
Answer:
No solution
Step-by-step explanation:
5(x + 4) – x = 4(x + 5) – 1
x = ?
Solution:
5(x+4)−x=4(x+5)−1
Apply Distributive property:
- (5)(x)+(5)(4)−x=(4)(x)+(4)(5)−1
- 5x+20−x=4x+20−1
Combine Like Terms:
- (5x−x)+(20)=(4x)+(20−1)
- 4x+20=4x+19
- 4x+20=4x+19
Subtract 4x from both sides:
Subtract 20 from both sides:
There isn't any solutions.
Answer:
<h2> The fourth</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Vertex of f is (-1, -4) so its range is limited to y≥-4
|x+1| is always ≥0 therefore -|x+1| is always ≤0 {4 is insignificant to this - slope doesn't mean in range} so its range is limited to y≤0
