Answer:

The answer is "Option b".

Step-by-step explanation:

In the calculation of engineering or modeling, it is used to assess its necessary system, that performance, and also used to evaluate the distribution network adjustments, which is used to accommodate the slew of other distribution network adjustments, that's why except "choice b" all were incorrect.

Answer:

It will take 1.47 hours for the horse and clown to collide

Step-by-step explanation:

They are driving toward each other, in opposite directions.

So to find their speed of approximation, we add their speeds.

19 mph + 15 mph = 34 mph.

This means that each hour, they are 34 miles closer.

How long it takes for them to find each other if they are 50 miles apart?

1 hour - 34 miles

x hours - 50 miles

34x = 50

x = \frac{50}{34}

x = 1.47

It will take 1.47 hours for the horse and clown to collide

How can I determine whether fractions are considered decimals ​

It would mean a lot.
LUCKY_DIMON [66]
First, subtract y2 - y1 to find the vertical distance. Then, subtract x2 - x1 to find the horizontal distance.

Formula to find distance given two points.

Square root (X2 - X1)^2 + (Y2 - Y1)^2

Xa Ya Xb Yb
A = (3, -4) B = (-1, 3)

Xa goes into X2 and Xb goes into X1

(3 - (-1))^2

Ya goes into Y2 and Yb goes into Y1

(-4 - 3)^2

Square root (3 - (-1))^2 + (-4 - 3)^2

Square root (4)^2 + (-7)^2

Square root 16 + 49

Square root 65

= 8.06

The error was Drako had (3 - 4)^2 when it should have been (3 - (-4))^2 because a positive is subtracting a negative.
