25 metres. Because 1/10th of a kilometre is a 100 metres. And four athletes divided by 100 metres is 25 metres.
The type of transformation that has happened is a translation. Translation is when the image's size nor shape changes after transformation. every point in the image moves the same distance in the same direction.
the equation for the translation mentioned is;
T4, -5(x,y)
this means that every point in the image has moved down by 5 units and moved to the right by 4 units.
Point A to Point E
Point A - (-4,-1)
after translation (x+4, y-5) = (-4+4,-1-5)
= (0,-6) these are the coordinates of point E.
the other three points too have moved the same distance and direction as point A did.
Simplifying
5(7x + -3) = 230
Reorder the terms:
5(-3 + 7x) = 230
(-3 * 5 + 7x * 5) = 230
(-15 + 35x) = 230
Solving
-15 + 35x = 230
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '15' to each side of the equation.
-15 + 15 + 35x = 230 + 15
Combine like terms: -15 + 15 = 0
0 + 35x = 230 + 15
35x = 230 + 15
Combine like terms: 230 + 15 = 245
35x = 245
Divide each side by '35'.
x = 7
Simplifying
x = 7
The equation for point-slope form is <span>y - y1 = m(x - x1)
