A flock of geese is flying north for the summer while a bird watcher is observing. He notices that they are flying in the shape

of an absolute value graph. The lead goose is 5 miles east and 3 miles north of the bird watcher. A second goose is flying 1 mile east and 2 miles north of the bird watcher. If the bird watcher is standing at the origin write an equation for the flight of the geese in the form of y=a|(x-h)|+k

Answer:

y = -¼│x − 5│+ 3

Step-by-step explanation:

y = a│x − h│+ k

(h, k) is the vertex of the absolute value graph.  In this case, it's (5, 3).

y = a│x − 5│+ 3

One point on the graph is (1, 2).  Plug in to find the value of a.

2 = a│1 − 5│+ 3

2 = 4a + 3

a = -¼

Therefore, the graph is:

y = -¼│x − 5│+ 3

A school track is shown the straightaway on each side measures 1,000 meters the curves are semicircles with diameter 74 meters w
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

2232.48 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram:

Radius of semicircle = 74

Length of straightway on each side = 1000

The length of school track :

Straightway on each side = 2 * 1000 m = 2000m

Length of semicircle = πr/2

Length of both semicircle  = 2 * 3.142 * 74 /2 = 232.47785

Total Length = ( 2000 + 232.47785) = 2232.48 meters
