<span>This is a right triangle problem. c^2 = a^2 + b^2 Let b = 7 mi (Rosa's distance from home) Let a = the east leg (Juan's distance from home (a+1) = c (hypotenuse, distance between them)
(a+1)^2 = a^2 + 7^2
FOIL (a+1)(a+1) a^2 + 2a + 1 = a^2 + 49
Combine like terms a^2 - a^2 + 2a = 49 - 1 2a = 48 a =
<span>a = 24 mi, Juan's distance from home
I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly. We hope to answer more of your questions and inquiries soon. Have a nice day ahead! </span></span>
Since it says ''times'', you have to change the mixed numbers into fractions which will turn the equation into 10/3 x 13/5 which = 130/15. When you turn that into a mixed number, it changes into 8 10/15 or 8 2/3.
