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

On average, Tony the turtle completes a 15-foot course in 1 minute, and Antonio the turtle completes an 18-foot course in 1 minu
marishachu [46]

Answer:

15 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tony's speed = 15 ft/min.

Antonio's = 18 feet /min.

So in 5 minutes Tony travels 5*15 = 75 feet and Antonio travels 5*18 = 90 feet.

So the answer is 90-75 = 15 feet.

Find the value of the variables in the simplest form
STatiana [176]

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle and the exact value

tan60° = \sqrt{3}

tan60° = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} = \frac{x}{\sqrt{3} } = \sqrt{3} ( multiply both sides by \sqrt{3} )

x = 3
