Answer: √32

Step-by-step explanation: so the displacement is north 4 and west 4 and it becomes a right triangle so the hypotenuse is the distance for segment AB

So Drawn out should like straight lines up,down,left,and right. So east is positive while west is negative same for North(+) and South(-)

I recommend sticking with 2 directions first. Starting with north and south right. First you go south 1 mile but then you go north 5miles in math terms

-1+5=4 or down one is one less than 5

Same for east and west. 3+-7 = -4

So we went positive 4 miles up and 4miles to the left

So (-4)^2+4^2= hypotenuse or AB segment in this case

When finding the slope of a line using a slope triangle, the____
Elenna [48]

Answer:

rise, run

Step-by-step explanation:

When finding the slope of a line using a slope triangle, the RISE length is divided by the RUN length. (I think. Sometimes the "divided by" makes me confused about which is on top, but I'm pretty sure this is right.)

Answer:

c. In 2 seconds, the commuter train travels 120 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The attached graph

Required

What does x-coordinate of 2 represents

Represent this coordinate with (x,y)

From the graph:

x = 2 when y = 120

Note that:

x = time and y = distance

So:

(x,y) = (2,120)

Which means:

At 2 seconds, the train has travelled a distance of 120ft

<em>From the list of options, (c) is correct</em>

Jason wanted to place all 540 marbles in the 3 newly bought boxes. If he wants to
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

The first box will have 90 marbles, the second 180 and the third 270.

Step-by-step explanation:

Division in a ratio of 1:2:3

1 + 2 + 3 = 6

So

The first box will have 1/6 of the marbles.

The second box will have 2/6 = 1/3 of the marbles

The third box will have 3/6 = 1/2 of the marbles.

First box:

One sixth, so:

(1/6)*540 = 540/6 = 90

Second box:

One third, so:

(1/3)*540 = 540/3 = 180

Third box:

One half, so:

(1/2)*540 = 540/2 = 270

The first box will have 90 marbles, the second 180 and the third 270.

The unit digit of a two digit number is one less than the ten digit number. If the number is increase by 8 and then divided by t
Colt1911 [192]

The tens digit is 3; the units digit is 3-1 = 2; and the number itself is 32.

<em>Lets simplify the problem,</em>

Let assume  the "tens" digit be x

Then the "units" difference =  (x-1), according to the condition.

Hence, the number itself is N = 10x + (x-1).

Then the number N+8 is 10x + (x-1) + 8 = 10x + x + 7 = 11x + 7.

From the last statement of the problem, we have this equation

N+8 = 8*(x+y),or11x + 7 = 8*(x+(x-1)).

Simplify and find "x"

11x + 7 = 8*(2x-1)11x + 7 = 16x - 87 + 8 = 16x - 11x15 = 5xx = 15/5 = 3.

Thus the tens digit is 3; the units digit is 3-1 = 2; and the number itself is 32.
