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

Which list of ordered pairs is NOT a function? Mark only one oval. {(1, 1), (2, 3), (3, 4), (4,5)} ){(1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3), (4,
Mrac [35]

Answer:

{(1, 1), (1, 3), (2, 3), (3,4)}​ is not a function.

Step-by-step explanation:

The lists are:

a) {(1, 1), (2, 3), (3, 4), (4,5)}

b) {(1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3), (4,4)}

c) {(1, 1), (3, 1), (4,2), (5, 3) }

d) {(1, 1), (1, 3), (2, 3), (3,4)}​

Firs, let's define what is a function.

A function is a relationship that maps elements from a set (the domain, is the set of the inputs) into elements of another set (the range, the set of the outputs) such that each element of the domain can be mapped into only one element of the range.

Then the list where we have the same input mapped into two different outputs, will not be a function.

Where in a ordered pair (x, y)

x is the input, and y is the output.

In this case, the list that is not a function is:

d) {(1, 1), (1, 3), (2, 3), (3,4)}​

because we have the input x = 1, mapped into two different outputs.

P(10) = P(2.7183) ^ 0.04 times 10
P(10) = P(2.7183) ^ 0.4
P(10) = P(<span>1.49182868673)
