Answer:

First we need to calculate the distance between Clifton and Burlington by using Pythagorean theorem:

    x² + 65² = 97²

=> x²           = 97² - 65²

=> x²           = 5184

=> x             = √5184 = 72 (m)

The total distance from Aurora to Clifton through Burlington is: 65 + 72 = 137 (m)

We have: 137 - 97 = 40 (m)

So it is 40 m  closer to travel from Aurora to Clifton directly than from Aurora to Clifton through Burlington

What is the equation of the line perpendicular to the line y=4/9x-2 that passes through the point (4,3)?
dalvyx [7]
Y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
 y - 3 = -2¹/₄(x - 4)
 y - 3 = -2¹/₄(x) + 2¹/₄(4)
 y - 3 = -2¹/₄x - 9
   + 3            + 3
       y = -2¹/₄x - 6

Use signed numbers to solve. A helicopter descended 1200 feet, rose 800 feet, and then descended 450 feet. What was the net gain
sergey [27]
The rise or an increase in altitude is represented by positive sign and a decend or decrease in altitude is represented by negative sign. 

First the helicopter descended 1200 feet. So the change in altitude will be -1200 feet.

Then the helicopter rose by 800 feet. So the change in altitude will be 800 feet.

Finally the helicopter descended by 450 feet. So the change in altitude will be -450 feet.

The net change in altitude will be the sum of all the above 3 changes. 
Change in altitude = -1200 + 800 - 450 = -850 feet

The negative sign indicates a descend i.e. loss in altitude. So the net change in altitude was a loss of 850 feet.

3. A large fruit dish with a 36 in. diameter is placed in the center of a banquet across and is completely filled with apples. T
Serga [27]

Answer:

a) 11%

b) 56%

Step-by-step explanation:

a) A= πr^2    6^2π= 36π    A= 18^2π = 324π

36π/324π = .111111111111111111111111 or 11%

remember to cancel out the pi symbols when you are showing your work

(put a line across the pi symbols when dividing)

b)   A= πr^2         18^2 π = 324π

     A= πr^2          12^2π = 144π  

              324 – 144  = 180

180π/324π = .5555555555555555555555556 or 56%

remember to cancel out the pi symbols when you are showing your work

(put a line across the pi symbols when dividing)
