Answer:
The square root of 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The other ones equal a number Ex Square root of 16 is 4 but the square root of 3 would be a large decimal
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation being used to express the answer is called slope-intercept form.
y = m x + b
m is the slope, b is the y-intercept (where x = 0)
The formula to find slope (m) using two points is called point slope form.
m = (y1 - y2)/(x1 - x2)
Pick two coordinates and plug them in.
m = (1 - 4)/(0 - 1)
m = (-3/-1)
m = 3
The minimum distance will be along a perpendicular line to the river that passes through the point (7,5)
4x+3y=12
3y=-4x+12
y=-4x/3+12/3
So a line perpendicular to the bank will be:
y=3x/4+b, and we need it to pass through (7,5) so
5=3(7)/4+b
5=21/4+b
20/4-21/4=b
-1/4=b so the perpendicular line is:
y=3x/4-1/4
So now we want to know the point where this perpendicular line meets with the river bank. When it does y=y so we can say:
(3x-1)/4=(-4x+12)/3 cross multiply
3(3x-1)=4(-4x+12)
9x-3=-16x+48
25x=51
x=51/25
x=2.04
y=(3x-1)/4
y=(3*2.04-1)/4
y=1.28
So now that we know the point on the river that is closest to Avery we can calculate his distance from that point...
d^2=(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2
d^2=(7-2.04)^2+(5-1.28)^2
d^2=38.44
d=√38.44
d=6.2 units
Since he can run at 10 uph...
t=d/v
t=6.2/10
t=0.62 hours (37 min 12 sec)
So it will take him 0.62 hours or 37 minutes and 12 seconds for him to reach the river.
Triangle A is the original triangle, and triangle A' is the image.
We need a pair of corresponding sides in the two triangles that are both labeled with lengths.
We see the side labeled 15.2 mm in triangle A', and we see the side labeled 3.8 mm in triangle A. These two sides are corresponding sides.
Divide the length of the side in the image by the length of the side in the original to find the scale factor.
(15.2 mm)/(3.8 mm) = 4
The scale factor is 4.
