Answer:
3 19/24
Step-by-step explanation:
-3.625
=-(3000/1000)-(625/1000)
=-3625/1000
=-725/200
=-145/40
=-29/8
Answer:
5 km
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the distances walked by Maria;
We are required to determine the displacement from her starting point;
- We are going to use Pythagoras's theorem;
a² + b² = c²
Taking, the distances towards south and towards west as the legs of the triangle;
Then, c² = 3² + 4²
= 25
c = √25
= 5 km
Therefore, the displacement from the starting point is 5 km
When dividing you should move the decimal to the left.
I solved this by hand first, then cymath, then Wolfram alpha. we all agree the solution to the equation involved is x=-3 however -3 is not a multiple of 6. if you plug it in you get a solution of 24 but I don't consider this to be a valid question.
