Answer:

Will ran the longer distance.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate this you have to create a triangle with the values that you are given, and the distance ran would be the hypothenuse, remember the formula for hypothnuse:

H=\sqrt[2]{a^2+b^2}

Now we just insert the values into the formula:

H=\sqrt[2]{a^2+b^2}\\H=\sqrt[2]{40^2+40^2}\\H=56,56

H=\sqrt[2]{a^2+b^2}\\H=\sqrt[2]{25^2+35^2}\\H=43,01

AS you can see the hypothenuse in the square is greater than that of the rectangle, so Will who ran the hypothenuse of the square will be the one that ran the longer distance.

Answer: The distance across a rectangular field is longer distance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Dimension of square = 40 yards

So, Dimensions of rectangle are :

Length = 25 yards

Width = 35 yards

So, Perimeter of rectangle would be

2\times (l+b)\\\\=2\times (25+35)\\\\=2\times 60\\\\=120\ yards

Diagonal of square would be

\sqrt{40^2+40^2}\\\\=\sqrt{1600+1600}\\\\=\sqrt{3200}\\\\=56.56\ yards

Hence, the distance across a rectangular field is longer distance.

vodomira [7]

The terms "linear function" in mathematics apply to two different but related ideas: A polynomial function of degree zero or one that has a straight line as its graph is referred to as a linear function in calculus and related fields.

a) Yes it does, because the graph of their relationship is a Straight line

b) Independent variables are variables whose variation does not depend on another. Number of works does not depend on followers. Therefore, it is independent

C)number of followers depend on the number of locks passing. It is dependent.

D) Slope = (Y₂- Y₁)/(x₂-x₁) = (100-82)/ (3-0) =  18/3 = 6

It represents the increase in number of followers per week,

E) y-intercept is value of y when x=0

y-intercept = 82. It means his initial number of followers

F) Slope-intercept form → y = mx + c m = slope горе C = y-intercept y = no of followers x= weeks.

Y=6x+82
