Answer:
-2a + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
We can substitute a + 7 for x:
f(a + 7) = 17 - 2(a+7) = 17 - 2a - 14 = -2a + 3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide 157 by 8 to see how many groups there are.
157/18=8r13. So you can round up to 9 groups of riders as there is a max of 18 at a time.
I think the answer to the expression would be D. (10 - 2) x 4 because (10 - 2) would be multiplied 4 times, which means it would be four times greater. I hope this made sense and also helped you in some way.
Pi is the same as

Okay, so first you draw a picture and let x be the distance from point D to the rest stop. Then the distance from point to the rest stop is 8 - x
You know that the length of the new trail is y + z, where y is the distance from Ancaster to the rest stop and z is the distance from Dundas to the rest stop.
Now by the Pythagorean theorem, y^2 = 4^2 + x^2 and z^2 = 6^2 + (8 - x) ^2
So take square roots of these, add them, and minimize.
Note: I am assuming the path is perfectly straight, otherwise this approach fails.
