Let <span>the town​ courthouse be the origin of coordinate plane, the positive direction of x-axis is west and negative direction is east, the positive direction of y-axis is north and negative direction is south. Then a lawyer home has coordinates (-2,3) and lawyer office has coordinates (5, -21).
</span>
Use the distance formula d= \sqrt{(x_1-x_2)^2+(y_1-y_2)^2} to get the <span>distance between lawyer's home and office:
</span><span>
</span><span /> d=\sqrt{(x_1-x_2)^2+(y_1-y_2)^2}=\sqrt{(-2-5)^2+(3-(-21))^2}=
=\sqrt{7^2+24^2}  =  \sqrt{49+576} =  \sqrt{625} =25.
Answer: 25 miles.

Sati [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

WE willl solve the question for the following equation -8c-10+4c=-6c+8

1. Add 8c on both sides

8c-8c-10+4c = 8c-6c+8

-10+4c = 2c+8

2. Add 10 on both sides

10-10+4c = 10+2c+8

4c = 2c+18

3. Substract 2c on both sides

4c-2c = 2c+18-2c

2c =18

4. Divide both sides by 2

\frac{2c}{2}=\frac{18}{2}

c=2

Then, the equation is solved.

Find the measure of angle A. (Hint: You will need to find the value of x, but that is NOT the solution.)
dangina [55]

Answer:

41°

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of angle measures in a triangle: 180°

So,

108 + x + 5 + x - 5 = 180

Simplify.

2x + 108 = 180

Subtract 108 from both sides.

2x = 72

x = 36

Substitute x = 36 into (x + 5)

m∠A = 36 + 5 = 41

Thus, the answer is 41°
