Aidan is participating in an 8 mile walk for his favorite charity. The organizers used a coordinate grid to plot the course. The

starting point is at (3,1) and the ending point is at (3,9). At (3,7), there's a water station to make sure the walkers stay hydrated. How far along will Aidan be in the walk when he reaches the water station?

Answer:

Aidan is 2 miles far from the ending point when he reaches the water station.

Step-by-step explanation:

The locations of the starting point, water station and ending point are (3, 1), (3, 7) and (3, 9), all expressed in miles. First we determine the distances between starting and ending points and between starting point and water station by the Pythagorean Theorem:

From starting point to ending point:

D = \sqrt{(3-3)^{2}+(9-1)^{2}} (Eq. 1)

D = 8\,mi

From starting point to water station:

d = \sqrt{(3-3)^{2}+(7-1)^{2}} (Eq. 2)

d = 6\,mi

The distance between the water station and the ending point is:

s = D-d (Eq. 3)

s = 8\,mi-6\,mi

s = 2\,mi

Hence, Aidan is 2 miles far from the ending point when he reaches the water station.

H = positive (14) because -98 / -7 is 14
U = is (-144) because it has u multiply 6 instead of dividing to remove it. If you do it ot one side you must do it to all other sides.
Q = 18 * 5 is (90)

If 2x^2-5x+7 is subtracted from x^2+2x-11, what is the leading coefficient?
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

2x² - 5x + 7 is subtracted <em>from </em>x² + 2x - 11, so

(x² + 2x - 11) - (2x² - 5x + 7)

x² + 2x - 11 - 2x² + 5x -7 (Distribute the negative)

-x² + 7x - 18 (Combine like terms)

The leading coefficient is the coefficient of the first term, so it is -1.
