Answer:
104 and 52
Step-by-step explanation:
just did the assignment on edgen
To help clarify the problem, we can plot the two ants on a graph (see attached image). However, we don't need the graph to solve the problem.
Let's first find the distance in their 'x' values:
= |-3| + |4|
The '| |' means that we don't care if it is negative, we just want the positive value.
= |-3| + |4| is the same thing as = 3 + 4
= 7
Now let's find the distance in their 'y' values:
= |5| + |-2|
= 7
From here, since we have the 'x' and 'y' distances, we can create a triangle. The 'x' and 'y' will be our side lengths, and the hypotenuse is then the distance between the two ants.
In order to find the hypotenuse, we use the Pythagorean theorm:
Now we plug and solve:
∴The distance between the two ants is
or 9.899
Hope this helps!
Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes. All that means is " flip " the slope and change the sign.
slope = -2, or -2/1....so flip the slope...-1/2...and change the sign...1/2.
so the perpendicular slope would be 1/2.
To Calculate the cost of <span>The cost of fertilizing, we need to Calculate first the Area of the Triangle.
</span>the Area of the Triangle = 1/2 x base x altitude = 1/2 x (14+√17) x 68 = 524.08 <span>square foot
</span>The cost of fertilizing = the cost of the square foot x the total area = 0.25x524.08 = 131 <span>$</span>
