Megan, namiko and omar are standing in a straight line. megan and omar are 20 feet apart and namiko is 7 ft from omar. what are the possible distances between namiko and megan ?

The distance between Megan and Omar is 20 feet.

Namiko is 7 feet from Omar.

Now we have two possibilities here:

Case 1:

If Namiko is standing between Megan and Omar ( as shown in figure case 1).

Distance between Namiko and Megan= Distance between Megan and Omar - Distance between Namiko and Omar

So distance between Namiko and Megain = 20-7 =13 feet.

Case 2:

If Namiko is standing 7 feet after crossing Omar ( as shown in figure case 2)

Distance between Namiko and Megan= Distance between Megan and Omar + Distance between Namiko and Omar

Distance between Namiko and Megan= 20 + 7 =27 feet

b. y = 4x - 2

step-by-step explanation:

to find a parallel equation to an equation, make sure both equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts.

y = 4x + 1

4 = slope

1 = y-intercept

y = 4x - 2

4 = slope

-2 = y-intercept

they both have the same slope but different y-intercepts, so, b. is the correct answer.

and to check your work, you can graph both equations. : )
