On a town map, each unit of the coordinate plane represents 1 mile. Three branches of a bank are located at A(−3, 1), B(3, 4), a

nd C(3, −2). A bank employee drives from Branch A to Branch B and then drives halfway to Branch C before getting stuck in traffic. What is the minimum total distance the employee may have driven before getting stuck in traffic? Round to the nearest tenth of a mile if necessary.
The minimum total distance the employee may have driven before getting stuck in traffic is ____ miles.

Answer:

9.7 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The shortest distance between 2 points is a straight line

The distance from point A to point B is

d = sqrt( ( x2-x1)^2 + ( y2-y1) ^2)

d = sqrt( ( 3 - -3)^2 + ( 4-1) ^2)

d = sqrt( ( 6)^2 + ( 3) ^2)

d = sqrt(36+9)

d = sqrt(45)

d =6.7  to the nearest tenth

The distance from point B to point C is

d = sqrt( ( x2-x1)^2 + ( y2-y1) ^2)

d = sqrt( ( 3 - 3)^2 + ( -2-4) ^2)

d = sqrt( ( 0)^2 + ( -6) ^2)

d = sqrt(36)

d = 6

But They only made it half way so 1/2 (6) =3

Add the distances together

6.7+3 = 9.7 is the minimum distance

1.) v=(l)(w)(h)
V=(9)(9)(9)
V=(81)(9)
V=729in^3

2.) (I forget if this is the real equation to this but this would give you the same answer)

V=(l)(w)(h)

What percent of 20 is 16?!!!<br><br>What's the answer and how do I work the problem out?!!
-Dominant- [34]

<span>16/20 is 80%.</span>

You find out by multiplying the denominator: 20 * 5 = 100

Then, you do the same to the numerator which is: 16 * 5 = x

So, x = 80%

Hope this helps! :D

How to master Euclidean geometry​
Roman55 [17]

Euclidean geometry is all about shapes, lines, and angles and how they interact with each other. There is a lot of work that must be done in the beginning to learn the language of geometry. Once you have learned the basic postulates and the properties of all the shapes and lines, you can begin to use this information to solve geometry problems. Unfortunately, geometry takes time, but if you put in the effort, you can understand it.

What is the equation of the line with the same slope as the equation x-4y=3 and the y-intercept(0,-8)?
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

y = 1/4x -8

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the slope of the line

x-4y =3

Subtract x from each side

x-4y -x = -x+3

-4y = -x+3

Divide each side by -4

-4y/-4 = -x/-4 +3/-4

y = 1/4 x -3/4

This is in the form y= mx+b where the slope is m and the y intercept is b

The slope is 1/4

We want the same slope

y = 1/4x +b

we know the y intercept is -8

y = 1/4x -8
