The minimum distance will be along a perpendicular line to the river that passes through the point (7,5)
4x+3y=12
3y=-4x+12
y=-4x/3+12/3
So a line perpendicular to the bank will be:
y=3x/4+b, and we need it to pass through (7,5) so
5=3(7)/4+b
5=21/4+b
20/4-21/4=b
-1/4=b so the perpendicular line is:
y=3x/4-1/4
So now we want to know the point where this perpendicular line meets with the river bank. When it does y=y so we can say:
(3x-1)/4=(-4x+12)/3 cross multiply
3(3x-1)=4(-4x+12)
9x-3=-16x+48
25x=51
x=51/25
x=2.04
y=(3x-1)/4
y=(3*2.04-1)/4
y=1.28
So now that we know the point on the river that is closest to Avery we can calculate his distance from that point...
d^2=(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2
d^2=(7-2.04)^2+(5-1.28)^2
d^2=38.44
d=√38.44
d=6.2 units
Since he can run at 10 uph...
t=d/v
t=6.2/10
t=0.62 hours (37 min 12 sec)
So it will take him 0.62 hours or 37 minutes and 12 seconds for him to reach the river.
-6x is the correct answer

Answer:
-0.16
Step-by-step explanation:
The 'a' value can be found by looking at the difference between the y-value of a point 1 unit from the vertex, and the y-value of the vertex.
Here, that is a negative fraction of a unit. If we assume the value is a rational number that can be accurately determined from this graph, then we can find it by looking for a point where the graph crosses a grid intersection. It looks like such grid points are (-7, 0) and (3, 0). The vertex is apparently (-2, 4), so the vertex form of the equation is ...
y = a(x +2)^2 +4
Using the point (3, 0), we have ...
0 = a(3 +2)^2 +4 . . . . . fill in the values of x and y
-4 = 25a . . . . . . . . . . subtract 4; next, divide by 25
a = -4/25 = -0.16
Answer:
0.3(8.2 x 10^-3) = 2.46 X 10 ^ -3
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to solve the equation 0.3(8.2 x 10^-3) and write answer in scientific notation.
Solving,
= 0.3(8.2 x 10^-3)
= 0.3 * 0.0082
= 0.00246
Writing in scientific notation
= 2.46 X 10 ^ -3
So, after solving the expression 0.3(8.2 x 10^-3) the result is 2.46 X 10 ^ -3.
