Answer:

<em>d = 4.59 miles</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Distance Between Two Points in the Plane</u>

Given two points A(x,y) and B(w,z), the distance between them is:

d=\sqrt{(z-y)^2+(w-x)^2}

The fishing boats leave the marina in perpendicular directions. The first boat travels north at v=12 mph for t=15 minutes. Converting to hours t=15/60=0.25 hours.

The distance covered by this boat is

d1 = 12*0.25 = 4 miles

The boat ends up at the point (0,4).

The second boat travels east at v=9  mph for the same time t=0.25 hours. The distance is:

d2= 9*0.25 = 2.25 miles

This boat ends up at the point (2.25,0)

The distance between them is

d=\sqrt{(4-0)^2+(0-2.25)^2}=\sqrt{16+5.0625}=\sqrt{21.0625}

Calculating the square root:

d = 4.59 miles

Each statement describes a transformation of the graph of y = x. Which statement correctly describes the graph of y = x + 7? A.
rosijanka [135]
<h3>Answer: choice A, graph is moved 7 units up</h3>

The plus 7 at the end will shift the graph 7 units up. Replace y with f(x).

Then we have g(x) = f(x) + 7. Adding 7 to y = f(x) will increase the y value by 7.

Goshia [24]

Answer:

1. 1,016 sq. m.

2. 119 sq. m.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

14 x 18 = 252

18 x 8 = 144

14 x 8 = 112

2 ( 252 ) + 2 ( 144 ) + 2 ( 112 )

504   +   288  +   224 = 1,016 sq m

2.

4 (7 x 5 divided by 2) + (7 x 7) =

7 x 5= 35 divided by 2 = 17.5 x 4 = 70 + 49 = 119 sq. m.

I hope this helps
