The average height of the fence is 2 m; its length is 20π m. So, its 2-sided area is
A = 2*(2 m)*(20π m) = 80π m² ≈ 251 m²
At 1 L/(100 m²), it will take 2.51 L of paint to paint both sides.
The answer is √58 = 7.62
So, if you draw this down, you will see that the direct distance is hypotenuse c of a right triangle which sides are 3 blocks (1 south and 2 north) and 7 blocks (4 west and 3 east).
Use the Pythagorean theorem:
c² = a² + b²
a = 3
b = 7
c² = 3² + 7²
c² = 9 + 49
c² = 58
c = √58
c = 7.62
Simplifying
2x + 3y = 12
Solving
2x + 3y = 12
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-3y' to each side of the equation.
2x + 3y + -3y = 12 + -3y
Combine like terms: 3y + -3y = 0
2x + 0 = 12 + -3y
2x = 12 + -3y
Divide each side by '2'.
x = 6 + -1.5y
Simplifying
x = 6 + -1.5y
