An egg that has been falling for x seconds has dropped at an average speed of 16x feet per second. If the egg is dropped from th

e top of a building, its total distance traveled is the product of the average rate times the time. Write a simplified expression to show the distance the egg has traveled after x seconds

$average \: rate \: of \: fall = 16x \: feet \: per \: second \\ duration \: of \: fall \: (time) = x \: seconds \\ distance \: of \: fall = 16x \: feet \: per \: second \times x \: seconds \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: =x(16x) \: feet \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: = 16 {x}^{2} \: feet \\ \: the \: egg \: traveled \: 16 {x}^{2} \: feet \: in \: x \: seconds.$

What is the perimeter of ABC with vertices at A (-11,4) B(-7,8) and C (-4,4)

Alborosie

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the distance formula,

$AB=\sqrt{(-11-(-7))^{2}+(4-8)^{2}}=\sqrt{16+16}=4\sqrt{2}\\AC=\sqrt{(-11-(-4))^{2}+(4-4)^{2}}=7\\BC=\sqrt{(-7-(-5))^{2}+(8-4)^{2}}=\sqrt{4+16}=2\sqrt{5}\\\\$
