A person travels 10 miles due north, then 5 miles due west, then 14 miles due north and then 12 miles due east. How far is that
1 answer:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
North and Souths get added together. North is positive and South is negative.
East and West get added together. East is positive and West is negative.
This will get us two numbers for a triangle that we can make starting at the origin and ending where the two numbers take us.
10 miles north + 14 miles north = 24 miles north
10 + 14 = 24
5 miles west + 12 miles east = 7 miles east
-5 + 12 = 7

Answer:
The answer is X>6
if you click the image it will show the steps to solving the inequality. hope this helps.
We are going to do this step by step:
Let's start with option A
A.
X = 25 and Y = 5/2
In this case, when X = 25 , then Y = 10 ,which is different to 5/2
B.
X = 14 , Y = 35
In case, when X = 14, then Y = 28/5, which is different to 35
C.
X = 40 , Y = 24
Similarly, in this case, when X = 40, then Y = 16, which is different to 24
D.
X = 10 , Y=4
Now, in this case, we can see that when X = 10, then Y = 4 which is the same as the given value of Y
E.
X = 50 , Y = 20
In this case, the values of Y are also the same.
F.
X = 30 , Y = 12
Again, in this case, the values of Y are the same, so the pair satisfies the equation.
In conclusion: options D, E and F satisfy the equation
