Answer:
As per the statement:
Hawick is 15 miles south of Abbotsford, and Kelso is 17 miles east of Abbotsford.
Let H represents Hawick , A represents Abbotsford and K represents Kelso
See the diagram as shown below:
Distance of AH = 15 miles
Distance of AK = 17 miles.
We have to find the distance HK:
Using Pythagoras theorem;

then;

or
miles.
Therefore, the distance from Hawick to Kelso( to the nearest tenth place) is 22.6 miles
subsitute x = 6 into the lengths
3(6) -7
18 - 7
11cm
(6) + 5
11cm
therefore it is a square when x = 6 because the sides are all equal
This will be -7 because this would make the denominator b + 7 = 0.
Jaqleen unloads a truck in x hours and Marco takes 2x hours.
Working together (x*2x) / (x+2x) = 5 hours
2x^2 / 3x = 5 Multiplying both sides by 3x equals 2x^2 -15x = 0
x = 7.5 hours
So Jaqleen takes 7.5 hours and Marco takes 15 hours
Double-Check (7.5 * 15) / (7.5 + 15) = 112.5 / 22.5 equals
5 hours Correct!!
