Answer:

y = x - 9 + 3 +3

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we can propose an equation where x is the starting point, and y is the ending point. Now, we know all the movements of the team, if we consider the yards won as positive values and the yards lost as negative values, the equation would be as follows:

y = x - 9 + 3 +3

If we solve we have:

y = x, that is to say, where they started.

What are the coordinates of the orthocenter of △JKL with vertices at J(−4, −1) , K(−4, 8) , and L(2, 8) ?
kompoz [17]

Answer:

K(-4,8) is the ortho center.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a right angled triangle, The vertex of the right angle is the ortho center.

Here we are given

J(-4,-1), K(-4,8) & L(2,8)

Using distance formula we get

JK^{2}= (-4+4)^{2}+ (8+1)^{2}=0+81=81

KL^{2}= (-4-2)^{2}+ (8+-8)^{2}=36+0=36

JL^{2}= (-4-2)^{2}+ (8+1)^{2}=36+81=117

So we can say that

JK^2 + KL^2=JL^2

By converse of pythagorean theorem we get

Hence the Vertex of the right angle is K(-4,8)

K(-4,8) is the ortho center.

Lilit [14]
The circumference is about 3.14 (\pi) times bigger than twice the radius.  Mathematically, this can be writted as C = 2 \pi r, where C equals the circumference and r equals the radius, or C = \pi d where C equals the circumference and d equals the radius.
