A right triangle base in your question, its hypotenuse is divided in to two line segment by a line of altitude and those segment are measured as 9 inches and 17 inches, so base on my calculation the exact length of the altitude is 3*sqrt(17)

Answer:

He drove the rest of the trip at 30 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule of the distance is D = v × t, where

  • v is the speed
  • t is the time

∵ It is 170 miles from Bruce's house to the city where his brother lives

∴ D = 170 miles

∵ He drove for 2 hours at 55 miles per  hour

∴ t1 = 2 hours and v1 = 55 miles/hour

→ By using the rule above find the distance of this part of his trip

∴ D1 = 55 × 2 = 110 miles

∵ The rest of the trip took 2 hours

∴ t2 = 2 hours

∵ D = D1 + D2

→ Substitute the values of D and D1 to find D2

∴ 170 = 110 + D2

→ Subtract 110 from both sides to find D2

∴ 60 = D2

∴ D2 = 170 - 110 = 60 miles

∵ The rest of the trip is 60 miles

∵ It took 2 hours

∵ D2 = v2 × t2

∴ 60 = v2 × 2

→ Divide both sides by 2

∴ 30 = v2

∴ v2 = 30 miles/hour

∴ He drove the rest of the trip at 30 miles per hour

Find the perimeter of the polygon. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

Perimeter is 38.8 units and approximately 39 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Graph

To find: perimeter of the polygon

Solution:

Distance between points (x_1,y_1),(x_2,y_2) is given by \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

As per the graph,

point P is (-2,11)

point Q is (-4,6)

point R is (2,0)

point S is (1,7)

point T is (8,7)

PQ=\sqrt{(-4+2)^2+(6-11)^2}=\sqrt{(-2)^2+(-5)^2}=\sqrt{29}=5.4\,\,units\\QR=\sqrt{(2+4)^2+(0-6)^2}=\sqrt{(6)^2+(-6)^2}=\sqrt{72}=8.5\,\,units\\RS=\sqrt{(1-2)^2+(7-0)^2}=\sqrt{(-1)^2+(7)^2}=\sqrt{50}=7.1\,\,units\\ST=\sqrt{(8-1)^2+(7-7)^2}=\sqrt{(7)^2+(0)^2}=\sqrt{49}=7\,\,units\\PT=\sqrt{(8+2)^2+(7-11)^2}=\sqrt{(10)^2+(-4)^2}=\sqrt{116}=10.8\,\,units

Perimeter refers to sum of lengths of all the sides.

Perimeter = 5.4+8.5+7.1+7+10.8=38.8

Or approximately 39 units

Find the vertex of the given quadratic function.
ki77a [65]

B

given f(x) in factored form, equate to zero for x-intercepts

(x - 8)(x - 4) = 0, hence

x = 4, x = 8 ← x- intercepts

The vertex lies on the axis of symmetry which is situated at the midpoint of the x- intercepts

x- coordinate of vertex = \frac{4+8}{2} = 6

f(6) = (6 - 8 )(6 - 4 ) = -2 × 2 = - 4 ← y-coordinate

vertex = (6, - 4 ) → B
