Dan drove 9 miles south and 12 miles east. What is the shortest distance to his starting point?

1 answer:

3 0

Working out the hypotenuse
a^2+b^2=c^2
9^2+12^2=c^2
81+144=225

square root of 225 = 15
therefore 15 miles is the shortest distance

Answer:

canvases over weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

w(h) represents how many hours per week

c(t) approximates how many canvases she paints per hour

In function composition, if we have two function f(x) and g(x) then

(f.g)(x) or f(g(x)) means first apply g(), then apply f() i.e. applying function f to the results of function g.

Now we have c(w(h)), this means first we apply w(h) which will give us hours per week and then we'll apply function 'c' on the results of 'w' (that is number of hours for weeks painted). As result we'll get number of canvas per week!

The rule of product states that:

$(+) \cdot (+) = (+)$
$(+) \cdot (-) = (-)$
$(-) \cdot (+) = (-)$
$(-) \cdot (-) = (+)$

So, a product is positive if and only if both factors have the same sign, and is negative if only if the factors have opposite sign.

It took them 4 days to install 480 chairs which means if they were working at a constant rate they got 120 chairs installed daily. with 360 chairs left that means in 3 days they will finish. so overall, it took the workers 7 days to finish, or a week.
