Let Brian's steps have a measure of 1, and Richard's steps have a measure of k. Then after each walks 5 steps away from the other, their distance apart is
... 5 + 5k
We are told that distance is equal to 9 of Richard's steps, so is equal to 9k.
... 5 + 5k = 9k
... 5 = 4k . . . . . . . subtract 5k
... 5/4 = k . . . . . . divide by 4
Richard's steps are 5/4 the size of Brian's steps. The appropriate selection is
... b) 5/4
Answer:
(- 3, 37) and (-
,
)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
2x² - y + 19 = 0 → (1)
y + 11x = 4 → (2) ← subtract 11x from both sides
y = 4 - 11x → (3)
Substitute y = 4 - 11x into (1)
2x² - (4 - 11x) + 19 = 0
2x² - 4 + 11x + 19 = 0
2x² + 11x + 15 = 0 ← in standard form
(2x + 5)(x + 3) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
2x + 5 = 0 ⇒ 2x = - 5 ⇒ x = - 
x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3
Substitute these values into (3) for corresponding values of y
x = -
: y = 4 +
=
⇒ (-
,
)
x = - 3 : y = 4 + 33 = 37 ⇒ (- 3, 37 )
9.11 kilometers
18.5 - 0.28 = 18.22
18.22 / 2 = 9.11
