The answer is about 12.5 (when rounded to the nearest 10th).
This can be found using the distance formula between each point. One distance is 5, one is
and one is
. Added together gives you the answer above.
Answer:
y = -4/5x - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
y - y1 = m(x-x1)
4x + 5y = 20 ( subtract 4x on both sides)
5y = -4x + 20 (divide by 5 on each side)
y = -4/5x + 4
So we know one point is (0,4) y-intercept
now plug in (0,4)
y - 4 = -4/5(x-0) (Distribute -4/5 to x - 0)
y - 4 = -4/5x (now add 4 on each side)
y = -4/5x - 4
Ken's distance is: d(t)=1.7t
Ken's shadow is:
(14-6)/d(t)=14/s
8/d(t)=14/s
s=14d(t)/8
s=1.75d(t) and using the value for d(t) we have:
s=1.75(1.7t)
s=2.975t and if you want it in terms of d, d=1.7t, t=d/1.7 so
s=2.975(d/1.7)
s=1.75d
sorry if I'm wrong. I got confused because you put 56+3 twice.×= 63
56+3=59=x-4 (this is with subtraction sign)
I didnt know if that a subtracting or negative so here both
56+3=x-4 (this is with the negative sign)
x= -14.75
