Answer: 7.69 meters long

Step-by-step explanation:

Since henry is cutting away rope, he is subtracting.

The rope is 9 meters long for the whole but he subtracts 1.3 meters from the 9 meters.

So, 9 - 1.31 = 7.69

what is the approximate percent increase when the population of a town increases from 12089 to 15025? round the amounts to the n

bulgar [2K]

The rate of increase is
$\frac{15025}{12089}\approx1.242865$

The percent of increase is then
$(1.242865-1)*100\%=0.242865*100\%=24.2865\%$

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So first I created 2 distance forumlas and set them equal to each other

$\sqrt{(5+1)^2+(k-2)^2} =\sqrt{(5-3)^2+(k)^2}$

then I simplified them

$(5+1)^2+(k-2)^2 =(5-3)^2+(k)^2\\$

$36 + k^2 - 4k +4 = k^2 + 4$

$-4k + 36 = 0\\$

$4k = 36$

$k = 9$

when k = 9, the two distances are equal

A taxicab starts at (1, -2) on the grid. It goes 3 blocks east and 1 block south to pick up a passenger. Then it goes 6 blocks w

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

(x,y)
east is an increase in x
west is a decrease in x
north is an increase in y
south is a decrease in y

so
3 east (x+3)
1 block south (y-1)
6 blocks west (x-6)
5 blocks north (y+5)

so in total, x+3-6 and y-1+5
basically x-3 and y+4
minus 3 from and add 4 to y
(1,-2)
(1-3,-2+4)
(-2,2) is the dropoff point
