Answer:

1,737.3 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume the length of the bridge consists of 2 right triangles as shown in the diagram. Use pythagorean theorem to find the other missing leg of each right triangle.

Let the missing leg for each triangle be x and y respectively.

Length of bridge = x + y

✔️x = √(1115² - 860²) = √503,625

x ≈ 709.7 (nearest tenth)

✔️y = √(1340² - 860²)

y ≈ 1,027.6 (nearest tenth)

✔️ Length of bridge = 709.7 + 1,027.6 = 1,737.3 ft

Answer:

to graph this, you will need to plot points on the graph

the x-axis as stated in the instructions will be the distance in miles

the y-axis will be the time in minutes

for every 1 mile Gloria bikes, it takes her 5 minutes

so that gives us our first point on the graph (1,5)

what about 2 miles? we would double the amount of minutes spent and that would take Gloria 10 minutes to bike 2 miles

that is another point on our graph (2,10)

same goes for the rest of the points, 3 miles would be equal to 15 minutes etc.

I have attached a graph that should be similar to what you can come up with, I put the y-axis (minutes) in intervals of 5, and the x-axis from 1-5
