Well how long is the ribbon? I'm not asking for the dollar amount, I will answer your question if you can tell me the length of the ribbon. No one can figure it out unless you give the total length.
Answer: (-2,4)
Step-by-step explanation:
When you go up any number of units, you add it to the y-coordinate. So -3 + 7 = 4. That would make it, (2,4). The next step would be reflecting it across the y-axis. And whenever you reflect across the y-axis, the x-coordinate always changes.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The trick is not to get all caught up in Pythagoras. There is a much simpler way to do it. Find the area of the triangle two different ways. DG and DE are at right angles. That is one way to find area. The other is use the height (DF) and multiply that by the hypotenuse GE.
DG*DE/2 = GE * DF/2 Multiply both sides by 2
DG*DE = GE * DF
DG = 8
DE = 15
GE = 17
8*15 = 17* DF
120 = 17 * DF Divide by 17
120/17 = DF
DF = 7.06
