Answer:

The two people should stand 40 feet from the center so that they can hear each other whisper

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question

Width of the gallery = 100 feet

Width = 2a

a = Width/2

a = 100/2 = 50 feet

Height of the gallery = b = 30 feet

Hence, the distance is

d² = a² - b²

d = √a² - b²

d = √50² - 30²

d = √2500 - 900

d = √1600

d = 40 feet

Hence, the two people should stand 40 feet from the center so that they can hear each other whisper.

Which equation represents the line shown on the graph?
Mama L [17]

Hello there,

To find out the equation you use the slope intercept form...

y = mx + b

M is the slope and b is where the line crosses the y-axis...

Now to find the slope you count the distance from two points so...

The distance from (0,2) to (1,5) is 3 units up and 1 unit over.

So the correct answer should be...

y = 3x + 2


Answer: w = 3z + 2


Hope I helped!!
