Answer:
5 liters
Step-by-step explanation:
10 x 0.5 = 5
Okay, so first you draw a picture and let x be the distance from point D to the rest stop. Then the distance from point to the rest stop is 8 - x
You know that the length of the new trail is y + z, where y is the distance from Ancaster to the rest stop and z is the distance from Dundas to the rest stop.
Now by the Pythagorean theorem, y^2 = 4^2 + x^2 and z^2 = 6^2 + (8 - x) ^2
So take square roots of these, add them, and minimize.
Note: I am assuming the path is perfectly straight, otherwise this approach fails.
Answer:
It would be A
Step-by-step explanation:
y= -4x² - 16x - 14
Take the coefficient of x² as the common factor
y = - 4(x² + 4x + 7/2)
Add (b/2)² to complete the square
y = - 4( x² + 4x + 2² - 2² + 7/2)
Complete the square
y = -4( (x + 2)² - 1/2)
Remove the bracket
y = -4(x + 2)² + 2
Answer: y = -4(x + 2)² + 2
