We can find the distance walked by Jared by finding the distances between each of the given vertex of swimming pool. We will use distance formula to find the distances between each vertex.

$\text{Distance}=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^{2}+(y_2-y_1)^{2}}$

$\text{Distance between vertex A and vertex B}=\sqrt{(-2--2)^{2}+(-3-5)^{2}}$

$\text{Distance between vertex A and vertex B}=\sqrt{(-2+2)^{2}+(-8)^{2}}$

$\text{Distance between vertex A and vertex B}=\sqrt{(0)^{2}+(-8)^{2}}$

$\text{Distance between vertex A and vertex B}=\sqrt{64}=8$

Now let us find distance between vertex B and vertex C.

$\text{Distance between vertex B and vertex C}=\sqrt{(-2-3)^{2}+(5-5)^{2}}$

$\text{Distance between vertex B and vertex C}=\sqrt{(-5)^{2}+(0)^{2}}$

$\text{Distance between vertex B and vertex C}=\sqrt{25}=5$

Now let us find distance between vertex C and vertex D.

$\text{Distance between vertex C and vertex D}=\sqrt{(3-3)^{2}+(5--3)^{2}}$

$\text{Distance between vertex C and vertex D}=\sqrt{(0)^{2}+(5+3)^{2}}$

$\text{Distance between vertex C and vertex D}=\sqrt{64}=8$

Now let us find distance between vertex D and vertex A.

$\text{Distance between vertex D and vertex A}=\sqrt{(3--2)^{2}+(-3--3)^{2}}$

$\text{Distance between vertex D and vertex A}=\sqrt{(3+2)^{2}+(-3+3)^{2}}$

$\text{Distance between vertex D and vertex A}=\sqrt{(5)^{2}+(0)^{2}}$

$\text{Distance between vertex D and vertex A}=\sqrt{25}=5$

Now let us add all these distances to find the total distance walked by Jared.

$\text{Total distance walked by Jared}=8+5+8+5$

$\text{Total distance walked by Jared}=26$

Since we have been given that one unit on the grid equals 1 yard, therefore, Jared walked a distance equal to 26 yards.

What is the value of y?

kherson [118]

Answer:

I think it is 3????

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm not sure but 36 / 12 = 3 so yea.

Hopefully this is right!

Is negative 1/3 less than 1/5

nika2105 [10]

Negatives are always smaller then positives because negatives are less then 0. So, yes, -1/3 is less then 1/5
