Answer:

15 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Shane could drive due north to get to his parents' house or he could drive due east to get to his grandparents' house.

It is 8 miles from Shane's house to his parents' house and a straight-line distance of 17 miles from his parents' house to his grandparents' house.

It can be calculated by considering a right angled triangle. Using pythagoras theorem, we can find the distance between Shane from his grandparents' house. Let it is d.

d^2=\sqrt{17^2-8^2} \\\\=15\ \text{miles}

Hence, Shane is 15 miles from his grandparents' house.

For what value of x would the expression below be undefined? 2x − 15 x + 9
Naddik [55]
Hey there!

I'm assuming your expression is actually \frac{2x - 15}{x + 9}. If it's not, let me know and I'll be happy to help you out further. 

If x were equal to –9, your expression would be undefined. If you solve it with this value plugged in for x, you will get the following: 

\frac{2x - 15}{x + 9}

\frac{2(-9) - 15}{(-9) + 9}

\frac{-18 - 15}{0}

\frac{-33}{0}

error

You can't divide anything by zero. This expression would be undefined if x were –9 since it makes the denominator zero. Therefore, x ≠ –9. 

Hope this helped you out! :-)
