Answer:
1 m/s
Step-by-step explanation:
the area of the triangle = A = ¹/₂ab
where a is the distance covered by the first person and b is the distance covered by the second person. since they walk at the same speed, then a = b, so our formula can be changed to A = ¹/₂x²
now we find the derivative of both sides:
dA/dt = ¹/₂ ⋅ dx²/dt
dA/dt = ¹/₂ ⋅ 2x ⋅ dx/dt
dA/dt = x ⋅ dx/dt = x ⋅ velocity
we are told that x = 5 m, and dA/dt = 5 m²/s
velocity = dA/dt / x
velocity = 5 m²/s / 5 m = 1 m/s

Answer:
60cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume that is a circumscribing quadrilateral, rather than one that is circumscribed. It is also called a "tangential quadrilateral" and its area is ...
K = sr
where s is the semi-perimeter, the sum of opposite sides, and r is the radius of the incircle.
K = (12 cm) (5cm) = 60 cm²
_____
A quadrilateral can only be tangential if pairs of opposite sides add to the same length. Hence the given sum is the semiperimeter.
8-4=4
9-6=3
Use Pythagorean theorem.
The nearest tenth is 5.
So the answer is point D.)
