7. Mike and Lilly are working together on a science project. They agreed to meet halfway between their houses and ride their bikes to the library together. Note: 1 unit = 1 mile, round to nearest tenth.

a. At which point will Mike and Lilly meet?

YA

b. Approximately how far will Mike and Lilly ride to the library once make bure

they meet each other at the halfway point?

which expression represents the approximate length of bc?

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

their are no angles. sorry cant .

-3

step-by-step explanation:

a drawing really does here:

so i draw the horizontal line y=2 and the vertical line x=-2 at this intersection i put b (this is where my right angle is going to be).   so point b is at (-2,2).   point a is 5 units long and is also on y=2 so this point has to be (3,2) or (-7,2) -doesn't matter i will go with (3,2).

now we know c is at (-2,y) we don't know the y yet bet we know that c is on x=-2.

we have the area of the triangle is .5bh=12.5

we know the base length is 5 (ab)

we have the height is (2-y) if you look at your

plug in

.5(5)(2-y)=12.5

solve for y to get the y-coordinate for c

2.5(2-y)=12.5

divide both sides by 2.5 giving:

2-y=5

now subtract 2 on both sides

-y=3

y=-3

b
