Answer:
2(x-7) + 3 = 9
2x - 14 = 6
2x = 20
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
With that information you can determine how far the park is from the football field.
Call h the height of the triangle, x the distance from the park to the football field and y the distance from the park to the home of Kristen.
Using Pithagora's theorem, ou can state this system of equations:
1) From the complet triangle: x^2 + y^2 = (8 + 2)^2 = 10^2 = 100
2) From the triangle whose hypotenuse is the distance from the park to the football field:
x^2 = 8^2 + h^2
3) From the triangle whose hypotenuse is the distance from the park to the home of Kristen:
y^2 = 2^2 + h^2
To solve the system start by subtracting equation 3) from equation 1) =>
x^2 + y^2 = 100
y^2 = 4 + h^2
---------------------
x^2 = 100 - 4 - h^2
x^2 = 96 - h^2
Now sum this result to equation 2
x^2 = 96 - h^2
x^2 = 64 + h^2
---------------------
2x^2 = 96 + 64
2x^2 = 160
=> x^2 = 80
=> x = 8.94
Answer: 8.94 miles
Where is the rest of the question?
You’re final answer would come out to this hope this helps :)
.28 if 1 was 100,and .28 was 2.8, then we divide 100 by 100 same for 2.8
