Answer:

<em>17 miles</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

If Heidi starts out by traveling 15 miles south, then y = -15 miles

If she then turns and rides 8 miles east, then x = +8miles

The distance from her starting position to her tent is gotten using the pythagoras theorem as shown;

d = √(-15)²+8²

d = √225+64

d = √289

d = 17miles

<em>Hence her distance from her starting position to her tent is 17 miles</em>

Can someone show how to solve this step by steps
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

$133.33

Step-by-step explanation:

When dealing with such a problem we can use the Rule of Three. This rule is basically used in order to find the missing value when dealing with a ratio. Like so...

12% of final price  <======>   $16

100% of final price   <=====>   x

Now we multiply the two available diagonal values together and divide by the last value in order to get the value of the variable, which in this case would be the original price in dollars

(100 * 16) / 12 = x

1600 / 12 = x

133.33 = x

Finally, we can see that the original price of the item was $133.33

Do this:

you get 41.66666666666667

So round that to 42 feet!

So yes, 500 inches is greater than 40 feet


Hope this helped you!

What’s the correct answer for this question?
Fantom [35]

Answer:

A and B

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Distance to the focus

From (x,y) to the focus(2,-4) {using distance formula}

=√(x-2)²+(y+4)²

2) Distance to the directrix

Is, y+p where P here is (-6)

So

d2 = y+p

= y+(-6)

= y-6
