A taxi travelled at an average speed of p km/h from town S to town T. A van took 4 hour more to travel from town S to town T. The distance between town S and town T is q km. Calculate the average speed, L in km/h, of the van. In terms of p, q and m

-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

g = (2, 2)

step-by-step explanation:

given the ratio is 1 : 1 then f is the midpoint of eg

let the coordinates of g = (x, y)

using the midpoint formula

(0 + x) = 1 ( multiply both sides by 2 )

0 + x = 2 ⇒ x = 2

similarly

(4 + y) = 3 ( multiply both sides by 2 )

4 + y = 6 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

y = 2

coordinates of g = (2, 2)
