Answer:
B or the third option you put.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
B. 40 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
— Estimating
The rectangle enclosing the path has sides of length 9 m and 14 m, so its perimeter is 2(9+14) = 46 m. The distance covered will be shorter than that.
The distance from A to C is longer than the distance from D to C, so we know the distance will be longer than 2·14+9 = 37 m.
Only one answer choice fits in the range 37 < d < 46.
____
— Detailed calculation
The distance from B to C is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with sides 9 and 12. You will recognize that these side lengths are 3 times the side lengths of a 3-4-5 right triangle, so the hypotenuse distance is 3·5 = 15 meters.
The circuit length is ...
AB +BC +CD +DA = 2 + 15 + 14 + 9 = 40 . . . . meters
Answer:
x is equal to negative one, and y is equal to negative four.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can do this by solving one of the equations by either x or y, then substituting it into the other. Let's solve the second one for y:

Now we'll substitute that into the first equation:

So we now know that x is equal to -1. We can simply substitute that into one of the original equations to find y:

We now know that x is equal to -1, and y is equal to -4. We can also check our answer by plugging that -4 into the other equation, and see if we still get -1:

So we know that our answer is correct.
It would be :
-12 + 48
