You start driving north for 16 miles, turn right, and drive east for another 30 miles. At the end of driving, what is your straight line distance from your starting point?

The distance between starting and ending point is 34 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Car moves 16 miles to north then 30 mile to east.

It forms a right angle triangle.

The straight line distance from starting to ending point represents hypotenuse.

To find the distance between starting and ending point.

Formula

By Pythagoras theorem,

h² = b²+l² where h is the hypotenuse, b is base and l is the another side.

Taking, b=16 and l=30 we get,

h² = 16²+30²

or, h =

or, h = = 34

Hence,

The distance between starting and ending point is 34 miles.

step-by-step explanation:

the correct answer is b. negative exponential growth.

step-by-step explanation:

you can tell it's an exponential function because it decreases rapidly then levels out and never touches the x-axis.

it is negative because the y-axis decreases as the x-axis increases.

therefore it is a negative exponential growth graph.
