Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the complete question attached in figure.

Consider

Hadley = x

Parker = y

Greenville = z

Distance between Greenville and Parker = yz = 29

Given that distance between Hadley and Greenville is 13 miles less than the distance between Parker and Greenville.

xz = yz -13 --- (1)

Distance between hardley and greenville = xz = ?

From (1)

xz = 29 -13

xz = 16 miles

So Alan is right that distance between Hadley and Greenville is 16 miles

How many ways can a rectangle be reflected across an axis of symmetry so that it carries onto itself?

anastassius [24]

I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. A rectangle can be reflected across an axis of symmetry so that it carries onto itself twice. <span>Rectangles are geometric shapes with </span>two lines<span> of symmetry. One line of symmetry divides a rectangle in half horizontally, and the other line divides the shape in half vertically.</span>

Use matrices to write the equation of the function in the form y = mx + b that contains the points

Fofino [41]

The line has a slope of -6 and a y intercept of 7.

The linear equation is given by:

y = mx + b;

where m is the slope of the line, b is the y intercept, y, x are variables.

The equation of the line passing through the points (6.-29) and (-4,31) is:

$y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)\\\\y-(-29)=\frac{31-(-29)}{-4-6}(x-6)\\\\y+29=-6(x-6)\\\\y=-6x+7$
