We have more variables than equations....therefore.....there will be infinite answers for this
The positive integers that satisfy this are :
p = 34, q = 8, r = 31, s = 8
Hey....I play rock guitar.....maybe we could jam sometime....LOL!!!!
Shortest distance =
sqrt [ (2 - 0)^2 + ( 8 - 0)^2 + ( -5 - 1)^2 ] =
sqrt [ 4 + 64 + 36 ] =
sqrt [ 104 ] =
2 sqrt (26)
Note that....at the top, we have a rectangle of dimensions 30 x 7 = 210 yds^2
And....we have another rectangle that is 17 x24 = 408 yds^2
Cobining these.....we get a total area of [ 210 + 408 ] = 618 yds^2
Good job, CentsLord!!!
A "Best Answer"
Thanks, guys....good to be back !!!
Hey, LuckyDucky....!!!!
Only mods can mark something as "correct'....I haven't been on here for a couple of weeks.....so...I'll mark what I can....
6 yards / 1 yard = 6 sections
The idea here is to get x by itself and then "swap' x an d y
So
y = 2x^2 - 8 add 8 to both sides
y + 8 = 2x^2 divide both sides by 2
[ y + 8 ] / 2 = x^2 take both roots
±√ ( [ y + 8] / 2) = x "swap" x and y
±√ ( [ x - 8] / 2 ) = y
