Answer:
7.21 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The shortest length needed to connect the house to the existing pipeline is the perpendicular distance between the location of the house (2,9) and the line y = 2/3x - 1.
The perpendicular distance (d) between a point (
) and the line Ax + By + C = 0 is given as:

The line is given by y = 2/3 x - 1; 2/3x - y - 1 = 0. The point = (2, 9)
hence A = 2/3, B = -1, C = -1,
. Therefore:

Answer: fraction:47/200 desimal:0.235
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>20x</em>+20-4<em>-15x</em>=96-32
(next:subtract 96-32)
<em>20x</em>+20-4<em>-15x</em>=64
(next: then combine like terms)
<em>5x</em>+16=64
(next: subtract 16 from 64)
<em>5x</em>=48
(next: divide 48/5)
<em>x=9.6</em>
Answer: C.
Explanation: A function only has one y value for every x value. This means that an x cannot have more than one y value. You can do the vertical line test on graphs to figure out if it is a function or not. In this case, graph C is the only one that passes the vertical line test.
