Answer: 5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

this creates a polygon which can be shortened to be a triangle with side lengths 3 and 4 and the hypotenuse unknown. to find the side length you use the formula a^2 + b^2 = c^2

3^2 + 4^2 = c^2

9 + 16 = c^2

25 = c^2

sqrt(25) = c

c = 5

Use the quadratic formula to determine the exact solutions to the equation. 6x2+4x−3=0 Enter your answers in the boxes. x = or x
Black_prince [1.1K]
The quadratic formula is x= -b +/- √b²-4ac / 2a

In this problem,

a=6
b=4
c=-3

Now, we can plug this into the formula:

x= -4 +/- √4²-(4)(6)(-3) / (2)(6)
x= -4 +/- √16+72 / 12
x= -4 +/- √88 /12
x= -4 +/- 2√22 /12
x= -2 +/- √22 / 6

So,

x= -2 + √22 / 6
x= -2 - √22 / 6
