Answer:

The actual distance between these two exhibits = 125 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Two water fountains are 10 inches apart on a scale of drawing museum

The actual distance between them is 400 feet.

On the same drawing, the distance between two exhibits is 3.125 inches.

To Find : What is the actual distance between these two exhibits?

Solution :

Since Two water fountains are 10 inches apart on a scale of drawing museum and The actual distance between them is 400 feet.

⇒ 10 inches = 400 feet

So, 1 inch = 400/10

⇒1 inch = 40 feet

Since we are given that  the distance between two exhibits is 3.125 inches.

So , the actual distance between two exhibits (i.e.in feet ) (Using 1 inch = 40 feet)

= 3.215*40

= 125 feet

Thus , The actual distance between these two exhibits = 125 feet.

Distance between parallel lines y=3x+10 and y=3x-20
Alecsey [184]

1. Take an arbitrary point that lies on the first line y=3x+10. Let x=0, then y=10 and point has coordinates (0,10).


2. Use formula d=\dfrac{|Ax_0+By_0+C|}{\sqrt{A^2+B^2}} to find the distance from point (x_0,y_0) to the line Ax+By+C=0.


The second line has equation y=3x-20, that is 3x-y-20=0. By the previous formula the distance from the point (0,10) to the line 3x-y-20=0 is:

d=\dfrac{|3\cdot 0-10-20|}{\sqrt{3^2+(-1)^2}}=\dfrac{30}{\sqrt{10}}=3\sqrt{10}.


3. Since lines y=3x+10 and y=3x-20 are parallel, then the distance between these lines are the same as the distance from an arbitrary point from the first line to the second line.


Answer: d=3\sqrt{10}.

A) (0,0) and (3,1)

1-0 divided by 3-0

Slope is 1/3

the slope represents the relationship between x and y

b) (6,2) and (-3,-1)

-1-2 divided by -3-6

Slope is 1/3

c) yes, the two triangles represent the same slope as all of the four points used are collinear (on the same line), making all the slopes equal.
