Put the second equation so it's in y= form, it should be the same :)
y = -2/3x + 5
this is the slope intercept. -2/3 is the slope and 5 is where it intercepts the y axis.
hope this helps
Answer:
x=8
Step-by-step explanation:
first you need to find the unknown corner so you do 180-71= 109
then find the interior angle degree (n-2)*180 (n=number of sides) so (4-2)*180=2(180)=360
then set everything equal to 360:
10x+6+13x-2+8x-1+109=360
(combine like terms)
31x+112=360
(subtract 112 form both sides)
31x=248
(divide both sides by 31)
x=8
First, we are going to find the distance traveled by the ship adding the tow distances:
Distance traveled= 24 mi +33 mi=57 mi
Next, we are going to use the Pythagorean theorem to find the distance from
to
:
d^2=1665
mi
Finally, we are going to subtract the two distances:
57 mi -40.8 mi= 16.2 mi
We can conclude that <span>if the ship could have traveled in a straight lime from point a to point c, it could have saved
16.2 miles.</span>
