the answer is 12.2 for 150 rounded to nearest tenth
Easy peasy
slope=(change in rise)/(change in run)
aka
slope between points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is
slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) since y is rise/up and x is run/leftright
points
(-7,-9) and (-5,-8)
x1=-7
y1=-9
x2=-5
y2=-8
remember minusing a negative means addin a positive
slope=(-8-(-9))/(-5-(-7))=
(-8+9)/(-5+7)=1/2
slope=1/2
positive slopes go from bottom left to top right
since it is less than 1
it is more horizonal than vertical
The trick to solving problems with mixed units is to convert all of them into one unit or another, so:
There are 12 inches in a foot, so 72 inches = 6 feet.
To find the perimeter of a polygon, sum its sides.
Perimeter = 2 + 5 + 6 = 13 feet.
To find the area of a right triangle (which I assume the one in the picture is), we can use the following equation: A = 0.5 * base * height
There are 3 feet to one yard, so 6 feet = 2 yards.
Area = 0.5 * 2 * 1 = 1 yard^2
Let 
be the cat's speed just as it leaves the edge of the table. Then taking the point 1.3 m below the edge of the table to be the origin, the cat's horizontal position at time 
is given by
and its height is
where 
is 9.8 m/s^2, the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity.
The time it takes for the cat to hit the ground is with
(Unfortunately, this doesn't match any of the given options...)
The cat lands 0.75 m away (horizontally) from the edge of the table, so that its speed was
(Again, not one of the answer choices...)
I'm guessing there's either a typo in the question or answers.
