Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
DE / XY = EF / YZ
5 / 10 = 2x-1 / 14
cross-multiply:
10(2x-1) = 14(5)
20x - 10 = 70
20x = 80
x = 4
We can factor this by using grouping. Take the leading coefficient and multiply it by the constant. In this case we get 5*-7 = -35.
Now we need 2 numbers that add to 2 and multiply to be -35. The numbers are -5 and 7.
So split the 2r into these two terms and group.
(5r^2 - 5r) + (7r - 7)
Factor both groups.
5r(r-1) + 7(r-1)
The factors of (r-1) can be added together to get the answer.
(r-1)(5r+7)
The distance formula is: d = sqrt( (x2 - x1)2 + (y2 - y1)2 )
For this problem, let (-5, -4) be the "first" point, so x1 = -5 and y2 = -4
and let (-6, 4) be the "second" point, so x2 = -6 and y2 = 4.
Then: d = sqrt( (-6 - -5)2 + (4 - -4)2 ) = sqrt( (-1)2 + (8)2 ) = sqrt( 1 + 64 ) = sqrt( 65)
The distance formula is just the Pythagorean Theorem applied to an x-y graph.
You would get the same final answer if you let (-5, -4) be the second point and (-6, 4) be the first point.

Answer:
Option B, 8/5 hr
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 + 1/8
1*4 / 2*4 + 1/8
4/8 + 1/8
5/8 = 1/t
5t / 5 = 8 / 5
t = 8/5
Answer: Option B, 8/5 hr
