Answer:

The direct path is 10 miles long from gayle's house to the store

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that due to construction, the direct route is closed and gayle must travel 6 miles east and then 8 miles north in order to get to the store.

So, refer the attached figure

So, he travels 6 miles east i.e. AB = 6 miles

Then he travels 8 miles north i.e. BC = 8 miles

So we are supposed to find how long is the direct path from gayle's house to the store i.e.AC

So, to find Ac we will use Pythagoras theorem :

Hypotenuse^2=Perpendicular^2+Base^2

AC^2=AB^2+BC^2

AC^2=6^2+8^2

AC^2=36+64

AC^2=100

AC=\sqrt{100}

AC=10

Hence the direct path is 10 miles long from gayle's house to the store

Answer:

c2=10

Step-by-step explanation:

8^2+6^2=c2

64+36=120

c2=square root of 120..which is 10

IgorC [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total fruits T= 5+7 = 12

No. Of apple n(A) = 5

No. Of peaches n(P) = 7

P(A) 1st = n(A)/T = 5/12

P(P) 2nd = n(p)/(T-1) = 7/11

: P(A and P) = 5/12 × 7/11

= 35/132

Answer:

6. E

7. D

8. 5,-8,34

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Parallel to the y-axis and passes through the point (3,5)

For it to be parallel to the y-axis, what this means is that it has an x-intercept and no y intercept.

So what this means is that x = 3 is our line so E is correct

B. Perpendicular to the y-axis means it is parallel to the x-axis

It means is has no x intercept and thus its x value at any point in time is zero

So the equation is y = -5

or simply y + 5 = 0 which means D is correct

C. It is parallel to the line 5x -8y + 12 = 0

Thus: 8y = 5x + 12

dividing both sides by 8

y = 5x/8 + 12/8

y = 5x/8 + 3/2

y = 5x/8 + 1.5

Comparing this with the general equation of a straight line ;

y = mx + c

where m is that slope, this means that 5/8 is the slope of the line

Mathematically if two lines are parallel, they have equal slopes.

So we can say the slope of the other line too is 5/8

Now to find the equation of the other line, we can use the point-slope method

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

where (x1,y1) in this case is (-2,3)

So we have;

y-3 = m(x-(-2))

y-3 = 5/8 (x + 2)

8(y-3) = 5(x + 2)

8y -24 = 5x + 10

5x + 10 + 24 -8y = 0

5x -8y + 34 = 0

So A, B, C = 5, -8, 34
