Answer:
- distance traveled: 30 m
- displacement: 21.4 m
Step-by-step explanation:
You want the distance traveled and the displacement after walking 17 m south and 13 m east.
<h3>Distance</h3>
The distance traveled is the sum of the lengths of each leg of the trip:
17 m + 13 m = 30 m
You have traveled a distance of 30 m.
<h3>Displacement</h3>
The displacement is the distance from your final position to your starting position. If you draw a diagram of the journey, you see the displacement is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs 17 m and 13 m. The Pythagorean theorem can help you find this length:
h = √(a² +b²)
h = √(17² +13²) = √(289 +169) = √458 ≈ 21.401
At the end of your walking, you are 21.4 m from where you started.

Answer:
3/5 of the students in the class are not in accounting majors
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of males in the class is 3/8
3/5 of them are accounting majors
The ones who are not in accounting majors are;
3/8 - 3/5 = 9/40
The total number of female students in the class is;
8/8 - 3/8 = 5/8
1/4 of them are accounting majors
The ones who are not in accounting majors are;
5/8 - 1/4 = 3/8
Total number of students not in accounting majors;
9/40 + 3/8
= 24/40
= 3/5

Please see attached pictures for the full solution.
(This distance is the perpendicular distance between the 2 parallel lines, which is the shortest distance between them.)
B: 2 and 1/6.
Tricky one if you rush through, its meant to SEEM complicated, like a lot of math questions.
