Suppose that a dog, a goat, and a bag of tin cans are to be transported across a river in a ferry that can carry only one of the

se three items at once (along with a ferry driver). If the dog and goat cannot be left alone on a shore when the driver is not present, nor can the goat and tin cans, find a scheme for getting all across the river.

Answer:

The task is explained in detail below.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that  a dog, a goat, and a bag of tin cans are to be transported across a river in a ferry that can carry only one of these three items at once (along with a ferry driver).  

The driver will first transport the goat to the other shore and then return empty. Then they will take a bag of tin and transport it to the other shore, and then they will return with the goat to their original place.  

Then he will leave the goat there and take a dog and carry it to the other shore and then return empty.

And eventually they will take the goat and transport it to the other shore.

Explain why |−3| + |9| represents the distance between the points (−3, −5) and (9, −5). brainly
forsale [732]
Since -5 and -5 are the same number, they are on the same y axis so the only distance we need to calculate is between the X coordinates.

When looking for distance, you can not have a negative. what |-3|+|9| is looking for is the distance from 0 on the X axis. since distance can't be negative, (you go 3 miles away from your house in one direction, vs 3 miles in the opposite. both ways is positive, even with opposite directions. same with axis, it doesnt matter which way, only the number.) you need the absolute value of -3 to get the distance from the 0 on the x axis. 

short version: distance is positive, and its adding the distances from the x axis to get distance from each other

What is 2/5 divided by 5/7 in fraction form, not decimal
PIT_PIT [208]
Ok. In order to do this set up 2/5 divided by 5/7. The way you divide with fractions is by multiplying them but flipping the second fraction into 7/5 <---this is known as the reciprocal. In other words do:

2/5 x 7/5 =
14/25
There you go.
