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.

PLEASE HELP ME ASAP! I need to know the 3 equations to solve for the different types of points. ​
kiruha [24]

Answer:

f = 0

x > 2y

x ≤ 8

S ≥ 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'f' represent the number of free throws.

Let 'x' represent the number of 2 - point baskets.

Let 'y' represent the number of 3 - point baskets.

Let S represent the Season high.

1) Ryan says he did not shoot any free throws.

⇒ f = 0

2) 2 - point baskets more than twice the number of 3 - point baskets.

⇒ x > 2y

3) Number of two points is less than or equal to 8.

⇒ x ≤ 8.

4) Last Season high, he had scored 18 points. Note that the problem says, Ryan equaled or bettered than last season high. That means he should got at least 18 points this season. So, the equation would be:

S ≥ 18

Answer:

  10 1/16 cm

  64 +16x +x² = x² +225

  16x = 161

  x = 161/16 = 10 1/16 = 10.0625 . . . cm
