I believe the answer is 47.
Stanley the skunk will save about 15.5 feet.
This problem can be solve with the Pythagorean Theorem. The possible paths that Stanley can take make a right triangle. The legs of the triangle are 25 and 28, and the hypotenuse would be 37.5.
If Stanley went the long way, he would travel 25 + 28 = 53 feet. Taking the short way (hypotenuse) is 53 - 37.5 = 15.5 feet shorter.
Answer:
P(pumps) = 2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
(Pumps)/(Everything)
(10)/(9+6+10)
10/25
2/5
= 3x(2x^2 - 4x - 5) - 6(2x^2 - 4x - 5)
= 6x^3 - 12x^2 - 15x - 12x^2 + 24x + 30
= 6x^3 - 24x^2 + 9x + 30 (answer)
