To do the first question, simplify the equation, putting like terms together, by adding and subtracting to do this.
Then looking at the equation that you solved for, look and see if there are any other equations that are related in some way to the original solved equation.
Pay close attention to the positive and negative signs.
Answer:
They are equivalent
Step-by-step explanation:
3/6 is equal to 1/2
2/4 is equal to 1/2
Answer:
x=1y
Step-by-step explanation:
Basically, Justin and Tina's paths form two right-angled triangles whose hypotenuses(?) form a straight line between their end points. Therefore we need to find the two distances from the starting point and add them.
Justin walked 3 miles north and 6 miles west so his distance from the start is the square root of 9+36 or 45. This can be simplified to 3√5.
Tina walked 2 miles south and 4 miles east so her distance from the starting point is the square root of 4 + 16 or 20. This can be written as 2√5.
If we add these two distances together we get 5√5. Hence, Justin and Tina are 5√5 miles away from each other.
