According to given figure, The Triangle BDC is a right angled Triangle (Angle D = 90°)
So, we can apply Pythagoras theorem to find the Side a (Hypotenuse)
Now, let's solve ~
Therefore, Length of side a is 5 units ~
I will help, what is your book called?
Answer:
y = -2x - 8
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find the slope-intercept form of this equation. Slope-intercept form is denoted by: y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
We already know that the slope is -2, so that means m = -2.
We also know the y-intercept (or the point where the line crosses the y-axis) is (0, -8), which means b = -8.
Thus, our equation is: y = -2x - 8.

X=t-yz and we are asked to solve for y so, subtract t from both sides
x-t=-yz divide both sides by -z
(x-t)/(-z)=y
y=(x-t)/(-z) multiply the numerator and denominator by -1
y=(t-x)/z
We are given a scale that for every 1 in on the plan, the actual length will 6.5 ft.
The maximum distance across the pond on the plan is 9.75 in. So that means we will need to take 6.5 ft 9.75 times. So our answer is
6.5*9.75=63.375 ft. That's the answer.
We can visualize this a different way
1 in = 6.5 ft
9.75 in = x ft
And from here it's a little more clear to see what needs to be done.
Hope this helped!
