Answer:
- <u>14.4 mile</u>²
Explanation:
1. By driving 6 miles each, the cars will be 6 miles + 6 miles = 12 miles appart.
2. When one car stops and the other car makes a 90° left-hand turn and drive 8 miles, you can model the situation with a right triangle, where one leg is 12 miles, the other leg is 8 miles, and the hypotenuse is the distance that separates the cars.
Hence, you must use Pythagoras to find that distance.
3. Pythagoras
- hypotenuse² = leg₁² + leg₂²
- hypotenuse = (12 mile)² + (8 mile)² = 144 mile² + 64 mile² = 208 mile²
, which is rounded to the neartest tenth of a mile.
Hello there!
In order to graph the solution, we need to solve it first.
So let's start....
3/7(35x - 14) ≤ 21x/2 + 3
15x -6 ≤ 21x/2 + 3
15x - 21x/2 ≤ 3 + 6
9x/2 ≤ 9
x ≤ 9* 2/9
x ≤ 18/9
x ≤ 2
See the picture for the graph
Please let me know if you have questions about the answer.
Thanks!
