Answer:

Area of ΔPQR is 28 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

-P is the point with coordinates ( 0, y-intercept for line x-2y+2 =0)

-rearrange the equation in the point-slope form y=mx+b  to find the y coordinate of the point P( 0, b)

x-2y+2 = 0, subtract x and 2 from both sides

-2y = -x-2, divide by -2 both sides

y= (1/2)x +1 so b=1 and P (0, 1)

-Q  is the point with coordinates ( 0, y-intercept for line 3x+y -15 =0)

-rearrange the equation in the point-slope form y=mx+b  to find the y coordinate of the point Q( 0, b)

3x +y -15 =0, subtract 3x and add 15 to both sides

y= -3x +15 so b=15 and Q(0,15)

-R is the intersection of the two lines so is the solution of the system of equations y= (1/2)x +1 and y= -3x +15

(1/2)x +1 =  -3x +15, add 3x and subtract1

(1/2) x+3x = 15-1, combine like terms

(7/2)x = 14 , multiply both sides by 2

7x = 28, divide both sides by 7

x= 4

y= (1/2)x +1 = (4/2) +1 =3 so R(4,3)

- the area of ΔPQR is (base *height)/2

base= 15-1= 14

height = 4

A= (14*4)/2 = 14*2 = 28

Find y.<br> Round to the nearest tenth:<br> 290<br> 500 ft<br> y<br> X<br> y = [ ? ]ft
hjlf

Answer:

  • y = 242.4
  • x = 437.3

First find the inner angle:

  • 90° - 29°
  • 61°

[ given hypotenuse = 500 ft ]

using sine rule:

\sf sin(x)= \dfrac{opposite}{hypotensue}

\hookrightarrow \sf sin(61)= \dfrac{x}{500}

\hookrightarrow \sf x=sin(61)*500

\hookrightarrow \sf x=437.3

using pythagoras theorem:

  • a² + b² = c²
  • y² + (437.3)² = 500²
  • y = √58760.1
  • y = 242.4

In a city, the distance between the library and the police station is 3 miles less than twice the distance between the police
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

Option 3 - 4 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : In a city, the distance between the library and the police station is 3 miles less than twice the distance between the police  station and the fire station. The distance between the library and the police station is 5 miles.

To find : How far apart are the police  station and the fire station?

Solution :

Let the distance between police station and fire station be 'x'.

The distance between the library and the police station is 3 miles less than twice the distance between the police  station and the fire station.

i.e. 2x-3

The distance between the library and the police station is 5 miles.

i.e. 2x-3=5

2x=5+3

2x=8

x=4

Therefore, The police and fire stations is 4 miles apart.

So, Option 3 is correct.
