Answer:

1) 20.2 feet

2) 24 miles

I am unsure if this is correct, but I used the Pythagorean theorem to solve your questions.

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

13^2 + b^2 = 24^2

b^2 = 24^2 - 13^2

b^2 = 576 - 169 = 407

b = √407 = 20.2

6^2 + 8^2 = c^2

36 + 64 = c^2

100 = c^2

c = 10

10 + 6 + 8 = 24

What is an equation of the line that is perpendicular to −x+2y=4 and passes through the point (−2, 1) ?

Elza [17]

Answer:

y=-2x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Since our equation is in standard form Ax+By=C we must first manipulate the equation so that we have it in the slope-intercept form such that y=mx+b. Therefore:

$-x+2y=4\\2y=x+4\\\\y=\frac{x+4}{2}\\\\y=\frac{1}{2}x+2$

Therefore, our slope is 1/2 and our y-intercept is 2. Now in order to determine a perpendicular line to the one stated above we must then get the negative inverse of our slope meaning $\frac{1}{2}=-2$ (negative reciprocal). Now we must use the point slope formula:
