URGENT NEED HELP. What is the approximate length of AB?
2 answers:
Answer:
Approximate length of AB is 9.2 units.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can use Pythagorean Theorem (check out the picture below) or directly use the distance formula.
<u>Pythagorean Theorem</u>
Hypotenuse is AB and you can read the length of the legs from the graph.
---
Another way to do it is to use the distance formula.
<u>The Distance Formula</u>
You can read the points from the graph:
A(-2,-3)
B(4,4)
You can see that both ways give the same answer. Use whatever you prefer.

You can use the root test here. The series will converge if
![L=\displaystyle\lim_{n\to\infty}\sqrt[n]{\frac{(4-x)^n}{4^n+9^n}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=L%3D%5Cdisplaystyle%5Clim_%7Bn%5Cto%5Cinfty%7D%5Csqrt%5Bn%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B%284-x%29%5En%7D%7B4%5En%2B9%5En%7D%7D%3C1)
You have
![L=\displaystyle\lim_{n\to\infty}\sqrt[n]{\frac{(4-x)^n}{4^n+9^n}}=|4-x|\lim_{n\to\infty}\frac1{\sqrt[n]{4^n+9^n}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=L%3D%5Cdisplaystyle%5Clim_%7Bn%5Cto%5Cinfty%7D%5Csqrt%5Bn%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B%284-x%29%5En%7D%7B4%5En%2B9%5En%7D%7D%3D%7C4-x%7C%5Clim_%7Bn%5Cto%5Cinfty%7D%5Cfrac1%7B%5Csqrt%5Bn%5D%7B4%5En%2B9%5En%7D%7D)
Notice that
![\dfrac1{\sqrt[n]{4^n+9^n}}=\dfrac1{\sqrt[n]{9^n}\sqrt[n]{1+\left(\frac49\right)^n}}=\dfrac1{9\sqrt[n]{1+\left(\frac49\right)^n}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac1%7B%5Csqrt%5Bn%5D%7B4%5En%2B9%5En%7D%7D%3D%5Cdfrac1%7B%5Csqrt%5Bn%5D%7B9%5En%7D%5Csqrt%5Bn%5D%7B1%2B%5Cleft%28%5Cfrac49%5Cright%29%5En%7D%7D%3D%5Cdfrac1%7B9%5Csqrt%5Bn%5D%7B1%2B%5Cleft%28%5Cfrac49%5Cright%29%5En%7D%7D)
so as
