On a town map, each unit of the coordinate plane represents 1 mile. Three branches of a bank are located at A(−3, 1), B(1, 4), a

nd C(5, −2). A bank employee drives from Branch A to Branch B and then drives halfway to Branch C before getting stuck in traffic. What is the minimum total distance the employee may have driven before getting stuck in traffic? Round to the nearest tenth of a mile if necessary. The minimum total distance the employee may have driven before getting stuck in traffic is?​

Answer: 8.6 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between Branch A and Branch B is given by the Pythagoras theorem

AB² = (Vertical Distance)² + (Horizontal Distance)²

AB² = (4-1)² + (1 - -3)²

AB² = 3² + 4²

AB² = 9 + 16

AB² = 25

AB = 5

BC² = (Vertical distance)² + (Horizontal distance)²

BC² = (-2 - 4)² + (5-1)²

BC² = (-6)² + (4)²

BC² = 36 + 16

BC² = 52

BC = 7.21

Half way of BC = 7.21 ÷ 2 = 3.6 miles

Total distance travelled from A to B and then halfway from B to C is 3.6+5 = 8.6 miles

Is 11/12 less that or greater than 1/2
Kryger [21]

Answer:

11/12 is greater than 1/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can make them have a common denominator of 12 to compare:

11/12 = 11/12

1/2 = 6/12.

So from this, we can see that 11/12 > 6/12.

noname [10]

Since there are 2 semesters per year we have:

∠A and \angle B∠B are supplementary angles. If m\angle A=(x-16)^{\circ}∠A=(x−16) ∘ and m\angle B=(3x+28)^{\circ}∠B=(3x+28) ∘ , t
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

  ∠A = 26°

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles total 180°.

  ∠A +∠B = 180°

  (x -16)° +(3x +28)° = 180°

  4x° + 12° = 180°

  x° +3° = 45°

  x° = 42°

  ∠A = (x -16)° = 42° -16°

  ∠A = 26°
