Let's use the slope formula!
m = y2 - y1 / (x2 - x1)
m = 6 + 7 / (-3 + 7) = 13/4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If a boat has the speed = 15 miles per hour
Let the speed of the river = v miles per hour
If the boat is moving down stream, that means boat is traveling with the stream of the river.
So the speed of the boat downstream = (15 + v) miles per hour
Since, speed of the river stream is added with the speed of the boat, it will reach the destination earlier than the expectation.
If there are 15 boards there are 14 gaps in-between.
But first, 15 boards each 9 and 1/4th inches so you get a total of 138 inches and 3/4th
If you subtract that from 144 you get 5 inches and 1/4th. The remaining amount is the total of all of the distance from the spacing.
Then you divide that by 14 (number of gaps/spacing in-between.)
So you get .375 inches. (3/8)
So width of the spacing between each board is 3/8ths of a inch
Answer:
IJ = 34
Step-by-step explanation:
Since HK = JK, then IK is a perpendicular bisector and Δ is isosceles, then
IJ = HI , that is
2s = s + 17 ( subtract s from both sides )
s = 17
Then
IJ = 2s = 2 × 17 = 34
