Jordan lives 6 kilometers due south of his parents' house and 4 kilometers west of his grandparents' house. On his birthday, Jor
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The direction of movement of Jordan on his birthday forms a right angle triangle. His movement from his house to his parents due south represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle. His movement due west represents the adjacent side and the movement back home along the straight line, d represents the hypotenuse. To determine d, we would apply the Pythagorean theorem. Thus

d² = 6² + 4² = 52

d = √52 = 7.2 km

The total distance that he drove on his birthday is

6 + 4 + 7.2 = 17.2 km

Help with this math question
tresset_1 [31]
The given inequality is:

|-8x+24| \leq 16

This inequality can be divided in two parts as:

a) -16 \leq -8x +24
b) -8x + 24 \leq 16

Solving part a:

-16 \leq -8x+24 \\  \\ 
-40 \leq -8x \\  \\ 
5 \geq x \\ 
or \\ 
x \leq 5

Solving part b:

-8x+24 \leq 16 \\  \\ 
-8x \leq -8 \\  \\ 
x \geq 1

Therefore, the solution to the given inequality is x \leq 5 and x \geq 1. Combining both the ranges we get the solution: 1 \leq x \leq 5.

In interval notation, this solution can be expressed as [1,5]

What is the value of y in the equation 4(5y − 8 − 2) = 185 − 15? 8. 5 9. 7 10. 5 42. 5.
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

10.5 is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

4(5y−8−2)=185−15

(4)(5y)+(4)(−8)+(4)(−2)=185+−15(Distribute)

20y+−32+−8=185+−15

(20y)+(−32+−8)=(185+−15)(Combine Like Terms)

20y+−40=170

20y−40=170

20y−40+40=170+40

20y=210

20y/20=210/20

y=21/2

y=10.5
