The crab crawls 7ft below (-7) and the bird flies ft above (15) so the distance between 15 and -7 is 22
Answer:
= -5/4
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope through two points can be found by
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (-4-1)/(3--1)
= (-4-1)/(3+1)
= -5/4
1.BE = 2x + 6
ED = 5x - 12
2. To get the entire side of BD, we must add both half's which equals to the entire length.
3. 2x + 6 + 5x - 12
4.Add like terms.
2x + 5x = 7x
-12 + 6 = -6
5. So, we have 7x - 6
=7x - 6
Y = 2.36x....where y is the distance traveled and x is the number of minutes
how far will the snail travel in 6 minutes...so sub in 6 for x
y = 2.36(6)
y = 14.16 ft <==
