The answer is 8.72.
sqrt(76) = 2sqrt(19)
2sqrt(19) = 8.717797887
Rounded to nearest hundredth ≈ 8.72
<span>draw a straight line through those points. that's your line of reflection. now you have only to figure out which of those equations corresponds to it.
So it y=x</span>
Let
x---------------> distance from people living to the city center
we Know that
Zone 1 covers people living within three miles of the city center
Zone 1 ------------> [x < 3 miles]
Zone 2 covers those between three and seven miles from the center
Zone 2 ------------> [ 3 <= x < = 7 miles]
Zone 3 covers those over seven miles from the center
Zone 3 ------------> [ x > 7 miles]
<span>calculate the distance between two points to find the value of x
</span>
case A) point (0,0) point (3,4)
x=√[(y2-y1)² +(x2-x1)²]----------> √[(4-0)² +(3-0)²]------> √[16+9]
x=√25-------------> x=5 miles
the answer Part A)
people living in (3,4)
x=5 miles -------------> covers Zone 2 [ 3 < =x <= 7 miles]
case B) point (0,0) point (6,5)
x=√[(y2-y1)² +(x2-x1)²]----------> √[(5-0)² +(6-0)²]------> √[25+36]
x=√61-------------> x=7.81 miles
the answer Part B)
people living in (6,5)
x=7.81 miles -------------> covers Zone 3 [ x > 7 miles]
case C) point (0,0) point (1,2)
x=√[(y2-y1)² +(x2-x1)²]----------> √[(2-0)² +(1-0)²]------> √[4+1]
x=√5-------------> x=2.23 miles
the answer Part C)
people living in (1,2)
x=2.23 miles -------------> covers Zone 1 [ x < 3 miles]
case D) point (0,0) point (0,3)
x=√[(y2-y1)² +(x2-x1)²]----------> √[(3-0)² +(0-0)²]------> √[9]
x=√9-------------> x=3 miles
the answer Part D)
people living in (0,3)
x=3 miles -------------> covers Zone 2 [ 3 < =x <= 7 miles]
case E) point (0,0) point (1,6)
x=√[(y2-y1)² +(x2-x1)²]----------> √[(6-0)² +(1-0)²]------> √[36+1]
x=√37-------------> x=6.08 miles
the answer Part E)
people living in (1,6)
x=6.08 miles -------------> covers Zone 2 [ 3 < = x <= 7 miles]
It rotates 360 degrees and 180 half way in a circular motion
