The minimum distance will be along a perpendicular line to the river that passes through the point (7,5)
4x+3y=12
3y=-4x+12
y=-4x/3+12/3
So a line perpendicular to the bank will be:
y=3x/4+b, and we need it to pass through (7,5) so
5=3(7)/4+b
5=21/4+b
20/4-21/4=b
-1/4=b so the perpendicular line is:
y=3x/4-1/4
So now we want to know the point where this perpendicular line meets with the river bank. When it does y=y so we can say:
(3x-1)/4=(-4x+12)/3 cross multiply
3(3x-1)=4(-4x+12)
9x-3=-16x+48
25x=51
x=51/25
x=2.04
y=(3x-1)/4
y=(3*2.04-1)/4
y=1.28
So now that we know the point on the river that is closest to Avery we can calculate his distance from that point...
d^2=(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2
d^2=(7-2.04)^2+(5-1.28)^2
d^2=38.44
d=√38.44
d=6.2 units
Since he can run at 10 uph...
t=d/v
t=6.2/10
t=0.62 hours (37 min 12 sec)
So it will take him 0.62 hours or 37 minutes and 12 seconds for him to reach the river.

Greater than.
yards are a larger unit of measurement, so to convert it there are more millimeters to count the same amount of space.
Answers:
x = 72
y = 83
============================================================
Explanation:
Angle VFG is 50 degrees. The angle adjacent to this is angle EFG which is 180-50 = 130 degrees.
Angle HDW is 77 degrees. The supplementary angle adjacent to this is 180-77 = 103 degrees which is angle EDH.
Pentagon EFGHD has the following five interior angles
- E = x
- F = 130
- G = 170
- H = 65
- D = 103
Note that angles F = 130 and D = 103 were angles EFG and EDH we calculated earlier.
For any pentagon, the interior angles always add to 180(n-2) = 180(5-2) = 180*3 = 540 degrees.
This means,
E+F+G+H+D = 540
x+130+170+65+103 = 540
x+468 = 540
x = 72
---------------------------------------
Now focus your attention on triangle THS
We see that the interior angles are
The angle H is 65 degrees because it's paired with the other 65 degree angle shown. They are vertical angles.
For any triangle, the angles always add to 180
T+H+S = 180
y+65+32 = 180
y+97 = 180
y = 180-97
y = 83
