Noam walks home from school by walking 8 blocks north and then 6 blocks east. How

Mathematics
1 answer:
TEA [102]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

4 blocks shorter.

Step-by-step explanation:

Noam walks home from school by walking 8 blocks north and then 6 blocks east.

If Noam walks 8 blocks from School at A towards north to the point B and then from B towards east by 6 blocks to reach home at C, then Δ ABC will form a right triangle whose sides with 90° are AB = 8 blocks and BC = 6 blocks and AC is the hypotenuse which is given by

AC² = AB² + BC² = 8² + 6² = 100

⇒ AC = 10 blocks.

So, total distance that Noam travels is (8 + 6) = 14 blocks.

And if he walks along AC, then the distance will be 10 blocks which is (14 - 10 ) = 4 blocks shorter than his actual path. (Answer)

Which is the equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through (-2, 15) and is perpendicular to 2x + 3y = 4?
Ilya [14]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Rearrange 2x + 3y = 4 into this form

Subtract 2x from both sides

3y = - 2x + 4 ( divide all terms by 3 )

y = - \frac{2}{3} x + \frac{4}{3} ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - \frac{2}{3}

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m} = - \frac{1}{-\frac{2}{3} } = \frac{3}{2}, hence

y = \frac{3}{2} x + c ← is the partial equation of the perpendicular line

To find c substitute (- 2, 15) into the partial equation

15 = - 3 + c ⇒ c = 15 + 3 = 18

y = \frac{3}{2} x + 18 → B

Please help me ASAP yall!!!
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

<C+<D = 180 since they form a straight line

5x+20 +3x = 180

8x+20 = 180

Subtract 20 from each side

8x+20-20 = 180-20

8x = 160

Divide by 8

8x/8 = 160/8

x = 20

We want to find angle D

<D = 3x= 3*20 = 60
