Answer:
x=9
Reverse. 14-5=9, so x must be 9.
The two points where they end and the point where they start form a right triangle, one leg is 12, the other leg is 15, you need to find the hypotenuse.
use the Pythagorean theorem: 12²+15²=c²
c≈19
they are about 19 feet apart.
Answer:
x = 4/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Group like terms together. Start by subtracting 1 from both sides, obtaining
5x = -4 + 10x.
Then combine the x terms, obtaining 4 = 5x.
Solving for x by dividing both sides by 5, we get x = 4/5.
In order to find a slope, there is an equation:
Y2-Y1/X2-X1
X1=2
X2=3
Y1=5
Y2=0
0-5= -5
3-2=1
Since slope is written as Y/X, slope would be-5/1 or simply, -5.
Now, we need to find the y-intercept.
To do this, shift the original equation:
Original equation: y=-5x+b
Shifted equation: b=y+5x
Now, plug in one of the points.
Let's use (2,5)
b=5+5(2)
5*2=10
10+5=15
y-intercept=15
So, the full equation of the line would be:
y=-5x+15
Its representedf by 2 polygons(triangles)
first one :
24-20=4
11-6=5
second:
24-14=10
11-7=4
B. frind area of 2 small trianges
a=(base x height )/2
first=4x5/2=10ft square
second=10x 4/2=20ft square
add them=10+20=30
rectangle24x 11=264
264-30=234
