Answer:
~1.8 mile
Step-by-step explanation:
Michael lives at the closest point to the school (the origin) on Maple Street, which can be represented by the line y = 2x – 4.
This means Michael's house will be the intersection point of line y1 (y = 2x - 4) and line y2 that is perpendicular to y1 and passes the origin.
Denote equation of y2 is y = ax + b,
with a is equal to negative reciprocal of 2 => a = -1/2
y2 pass the origin (0, 0) => b = 0
=> Equation of y2:
y = (-1/2)x
To find location of Michael's house, we get y1 = y2 or:
2x - 4 = (-1/2)x
<=> 4x - 8 = -x
<=> 5x = 8
<=> x = 8/5
=> y = (-1/2)x = (-1/2)(8/5) = -4/5
=> Location of Michael' house: (x, y) = (8/5, -4/5)
Distance from Michael's house to school is:
D = sqrt(x^2 + y^2) = sqrt[(8/5)^2 + (-4/5)^2) = ~1.8 (mile)

Is it asking for the perimeter of a square?
Answer:
x=7−√10 or x=7+√10
Step-by-step explanation:
−5(x−7)2+30=−20
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
−5x2+70x−215=−20
Step 2: Subtract -20 from both sides.
−5x2+70x−215−(−20)=−20−(−20)
−5x2+70x−195=0
For this equation: a=-5, b=70, c=-195
−5x2+70x+−195=0
Step 3: Use quadratic formula with a=-5, b=70, c=-195.
x=
−b±√b2−4ac
2a
x=
−(70)±√(70)2−4(−5)(−195)
2(−5)
x=
−70±√1000
−10
x=7−√10 or x=7+√10
