Answer:
whats the question
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of rectangle:
11 ft · 6 ft = 66 ft²
The area of triangle:
6 ft · 4 ft/2 = 6 ft · 2 ft = 12 ft²
The area of the shaded region:
66 ft² - 12 ft² = 54 ft²
Take the formula: y=mx+b
m= slope
b=y-intercept
m=2
b=-1
therefore:
y=2x-1
Answer: 7.5 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
think of it as a triangle; the bold line is the hypotenuse, or x.
8 |\ x
|_\ it's not a good triangle but you get the point
6
and then get out pythagorean theorem: a^2+b^2=c^2
put the numbers in: 8^2 + 6^2 = x^2
do some math:
64+36=x^2
100=x^2 (and then find square root)
10=x
<u>BUT</u>, it said each unit was 3/4 of a mile, so we must multiply 10 by 3/4 to get the actual distance, which is 7.5
