sorry it can't fit the other half
For this case the distance will be given by:
d ^ 2 = (12 * 1.5) ^ 2 + (8 * 1.5) ^ 2
Rewriting we have:
d ^ 2 = (18) ^ 2 + (12) ^ 2
d ^ 2 = 324 + 144
d ^ 2 = 468
d = root (468)
d = 21.63 Km
Answer:
1) She did not find the full distance each traveled in 1.5 hours.
2) She should have used 12 km for Joseph's distance and 18 km for Isabelle's distance.
First, you need to get the denominators (the bottom number) the same. The smallest number to get them to is 15.
So, what you need to do is take 2/5 and multiply the bottom by 3 to get 15, and since you did it to the bottom, you need to do it to the top too. So you would get, 6/15.
Then, for 1/3, take the bottom number and multiply it by 5. Then, since you did it to the bottom, do it to the top as well. You would get 5/15.
Then, you need to put them side by side. You don't add the bottom, so your denominator would remain 15, but your numerator (top) would get added.
<u> 6</u> + <u>5</u> = <u>11</u>
15 15 15
The answer is -12 because the 4 and 8 are negative
Your answer should be 71. :)
