Answer:
- Jon - Andrea = 1/10
- Callie - Jon = 3/10
Step-by-step explanation:
In terms of tenths, the distances each hiked are ...
- Andrea — 4/10
- Jon — 5/10
- Callie — 8/10
Then the differences of interest are ...
Jon - Andrea = 5/10 -4/10 = 1/10
Callie - Jon = 8/10 - 5/10 = 3/10
__
Jon hiked 1/10 of the trail more than Andrea.
Callie hiked 3/10 of the trail more than Jon.
Place the right angle at the origin. Short leg on x-axis.
The forth corner of the square is the point on the hypotenuse where the line y = x intersects. (Draw a diagram!)
In this case the hypotenuse is y = -4x/3 + 8
x = -4x/3 + 8
7x/3 = 8
7x = 24
x = 3.428571429
Your answer for -16 divided by 2 will be -8, because half of 16 is 8, but you are just in the negative numbers:)! So your answer is -8
Y=mx+b
plug in the point
3=-1*-4+b
3=4+b
b=-1
y=-1x-1
