We are given
x1 = 10 ft
y1 = 14 ft
x2 = 13 ft
y2 = 9 ft
We are asked to find the distance between the base of the house to the closest treetop.
So,
d1 = √(10² + 14²) = 17.20
d2 √(13² + 9²) = 15.81
The distance is 15.81 ft to the closest treetop which is the tree 13 feet from the base of the house.
The answer to your question is (2,-6)
Answer:
Coordinate Q is (0.8, 0.7)
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that the coordinates of point Pare (0.6,0.1).
This means that along the x-axis, x = 0.6 and along the y-axis, y = 0.1.
Now, by inspection of the graph, we can see that when we count boxes from the origin to the point P, we have 6 boxes. Thus, each box corresponds to 0.1. So, for point Q, from the origin to that point, on the x-axis, we have 8 boxes. Since one box = 0.1, then the x - value of Coordinate Q is 0.8.
On the y - axis, we see that we have one box from the origin up for the corresponding y-value of coordinate P.
This means that one box is 0.1.
For coordinate Q, we will count 7 boxes. Thus, y-value of coordinate Q is 0.7.
Thus,coordinate Q is (0.8, 0.7)
We need to write the following expression and solve for x:
9/18 = 100/x
So: 9x = 1800
x = 200
So it would take him 200 minutes to deliver 100 papers.
We do the same for 72 papers
9/18 = 72/x
so 9x = 1296
and x = 144
It would take him 144 minutes to deliver 72 papers.
