Can someone help me figure out what are the two checkpoints?

13,000 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

X 10960CDY

The entire race (from X to Y) is 7 miles.  There are 5,280 ft. in one mile, so 7 miles is 36960 ft.

If we subtract 10,960 from 36,960, then we get the distance from C to Y.

36960-10960 = 26000

They tell you D is at the midpoint between C and Y

So if we divide 26,000 by 2, then we know the distance from C to D and from D to Y.

26000/2 = 13000

The checkpoints are C and D, so the distance between them is 13,000 ft.

10a^3+277a^2-132a-792

step-by-step explanation:

(2a+11)(5a-12)(foil)

=10a^2-24a+55a-132 =10a^2+31a-132

(10a^2+31a-132)(a+6)

=10a^3+60a^2+31a^2+186a^2-132a-792 =10a^3+277a^2-132a-792

i hope this is what you are looking for : )

5x + 3y = - 4

step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in standard form is

ax + by = c ( a is a positive integer and b, c are integers )

express the line first of all in slope- intercept form

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

to calculate m use the gradient formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (7, - 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, - 8)

m = = -

y = - x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

using (4, - 8 ), then

- 8 = - + c ⇒ c = -

y = - x - ← in slope-intercept form

multiply all terms by 3 to eliminate the fractions

3y = - 5x - 4 ( add 5x to both sides )

5x + 3y = - 4 ← in standard form
