We know, shortest distance between two points (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2) is :

D=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

So, distance between house and library is :

d_1=\sqrt{(-5-(-3))^2+(2-(-3))^2}\\\\d_1=5.39\ km

Distance between library and post office :

D=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}\\\\D=\sqrt{(-3-2)^2+(-3-2)^2}\\\\D=7.07\ km

Distance between post office and house :

D=\sqrt{(2-(-5)^2)+(2-2)^2}\\\\D=7\ km

Therefore, minimum distance that you can ride your bike is (5.39+7.07+7) km = 19.46  km.

Hence, this is the required solution.

For a given input value x, the function h outputs a value y to satisfy the following equation 6x+y=4x+11y. Write a formula for h
Tanzania [10]

Answer: h(x) = \frac{1}{5}x

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

6x + y = 4x + 11y

<u>      -y </u>    <u>        -y  </u>

6x       = 4x + 10y

<u>-4x   </u>      <u>-4x         </u>

2x       =         10y

<u>÷10    </u>     <u>       ÷10 </u>

\frac{1}{5}x    =            y

Since "y" represents h(x), then h(x) = \frac{1}{5}x
