Answer:  The correct option is (D) 19.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that the map of a biking trail is drawn on a coordinate grid.

The trail starts at P(−6, 3) and goes to Q(3, 3). It goes from Q to R(3, −4) and then to S(6, −4).

We are to find the total length in units of the biking trail.

The length of a line segment is equal to the distance between the endpoints of the segment.

<u><em>Distance formula :</em></u>  

The distance between two points (a, b) and (c, d) is given by

d=\sqrt{(c-a)^2+(d-b)^2}.

So, the length of the line segments PQ, QR and RS are given by

PQ=\sqrt{(3+6)^2+(3-3)^2}=\sqrt{9^2+0^2}=\sqrt{9^2}=9,\\\\\\QR=\sqrt{(3-3)^2+(-4-3)^2}=\sqrt{0^2+7^2}=\sqrt{7^2}=7,\\\\\\RS=\sqrt{(6-3)^2+(-4+4)^2}=\sqrt{3^2+0^2}=\sqrt{3^2}=3.

Therefore, the total length of the biking trail is given by

\ell=PQ+QR+RS=9+7+3=19~\textup{units}.

Thus, the total length of the biking trail is 19 units.

Option (D) is CORRECT.

A rocket car on the bonneville salt flats is traveling at a rate of 640 miles per hour. How much time would it take for the car
luda_lava [24]
D = r t 384 = 640 * t 384/640 = t .6 = t .6 of an hour .6 hr * 60min/1 hr = 36 minutes (just in case it needs to be in minutes)

Please help me with parts A, B, and C.

Answer:

  (a) scalene, see attachment

  (b) acute, see attachment

  (c) correct; isosceles

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) The sides of the triangle all have different lengths, so the triangle is scalene. Differences in coordinates between the points of the triangle are (6, 2), (5, 2), and (4, 1), so no two distances between these points can be the same.

__

(b) The angle opposite the longest side is clearly an acute angle, so the triangle is an acute triangle.

__

(c) Miles and Brad live on the same north/south line. Jose lives at a distance that is halfway between those houses in the north-south direction. Hence the distance to Miles' and Brad's houses must be the same from Jose's house. That means the triangle connecting Miles', Brad's, and Jose's houses will be an isosceles triangle.
