Answer:
Given:
I usually walk from home to work. This morning, I walked for 10 minutes until I was halfway to work.
I then realized that I would be late if I kept walking.
I ran the rest of the way. I run twice as fast as I walk.
Find:
The number of minutes in total did it take me to get from home to work
Step-by-step explanation:
Had I kept walking, the second half of my trip would have taken 10 more minutes.
By doubling my speed for the second half of my trip,
I halved the amount of time it took me to finish.
So, the second half of my trip took 5 minutes, for a total trip time of 10+5 = 15 minutes.
The number of minutes in total did it take me to get from home to work is 15 minutes.
Answer: I think it’s 68.2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the formula for calculating the distance between 2 points.
D = √(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²
Given
D = 45 units
The coordinates Q(–1, a) and P(3,2)
45 = √(3-(-1))²+(-2-a)²
45 = √4²+(-2-a)²
45 = √16+(-2-a)²
45² = 16+(-2-a)²
45² = 16+4+4a+a²
45² = 20+4a+a²
a²-4a+20-2025 = 0
a²+4a-2005 = 0
a = -4±√16+4(2005)/2
a = -4±√16+8020/2
a = -4±√8036/2
a = -4±90/2
a = -4+90/2
a = 86/2
a = 43
The possible values of a is 43
