Answer:
−3X−30
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Pythagorean Theorem Statement is below.
Therefore the value of x is 9 m.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Label the vertices as A , B , C shown in figure below such that
∠A = 90°
AC = Longer leg = 12 m
AB = Shorter leg = x
BC = Hypotenuse = 15 m
To Find:
x = ?
Solution:
Pythagorean Theorem :
Pythagorean Theorem States that "the square of the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle equals the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides".
Which can be Written as

OR

i.e 
Substituting the values AB ,AC, BC we get

Therefore the value of x is 9 m.
The problem cannot be fully solved because you did provide the line on which the line is parallel/ but i can give you the steps on how to solve it. first solve the slope of the parallel line by
m = ( y2 - y1 ) / ( x2 - x1 )
then the slope of that line is equal to slope of line passing pooint ( -1 , 1)
then solve the y intercept of the line using
y = mx + b
where b is the y intercept
then you will have the equation of the line
The equation in y = mx+b form is y = -450x+2745
where,
x = number of hours that have passed by
y = distance to destination in miles
The y intercept is 2745 since this is the initial starting y value, aka the starting distance. Therefore b = 2745.
The slope is -450 or -450/1 since for each hour, the distance goes down by 450. You can think of it as
slope = (change in y)/(change in x)
slope = (change in distance)/(change in time)
slope = (-450 miles)/(1 hour)
slope = -450
