The length of line segment is the horizontal distance between two points

Suppose

a line has endpoints

(x-1,y1)
(x2,Y2)

The length of the line is

√(x_1-x_2)²+(y_1-y_2)²

4. Ashley claims that if she triples the side length of a square (s), the area of the square will also be tripled. Do you agree?

stepladder [879]

Answer :-

Let the side of the square measure a cm, thus, according to the question,

New length = 3(a cm)

We know that,

➭ Area ( Square ) = a²

Thus, the area of the square with normal length i.e. a cm, will be,

⤳ Area = a x a

⤳ Area = a²

Now, by taking the new length, the area will become,

⤳Area = 3a x 3a

⤳ Area = 9a²

Now,

We observe that, if we divide these, we get,

➤ 9a²/a²

( a² will get canceled since its common )

Thus, the ratio becomes,

➭ 9 : 1 = Area square with tripled length : Area of square

Thus, the area will increase by 9 times, and not 3.

Hence, Ashley's assumptions are wrong.

C = 0.20m+2.00 what is the charge for 2.7 mile ride?

svetoff [14.1K]

M = number of miles
m = 2.7 is plugged into the equation to get
C = 0.20*m + 2.00
C = 0.20*2.7 + 2.00
C = 0.54 + 2.00
C = 2.54
The cost is $2.54

What is the unit rate of 88 students for 4 classes

Nat2105 [25]

So, We Have A Rate That We Need To Simplify. We Have:
88 students for every 4 classes
So, We Need To Simplify This Rate. In Order To Do This, We Need To Change Is To A Fraction. It Is:
88 students
---------------
4 classes

Now, We Have To Simplify. We Can Do That By Remembering How To Simplify Fractions.

So,
88 ÷ 2 = 44 ÷ 2 = 22 students
--- --- ---------------
4 ÷ 2 = 2 ÷ 2 = 1

So, The Unit Rate For 88 Students For 4 Classes Is:
22 Students For One Class

-3/4 + (-3/4) <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cfrac%7B%20-%203%7D%7B4%7D%20%20%2B%20%20%5Cfrac%7B%20-%203%7D%7B4%7D%20

nika2105 [10]

Firstly, since these two fractions have the same denominator, add the numerators up: $\frac{-6}{4}$

While it appears that the answer is -6/4, you can further simplify it by dividing the numerator and denominator by 2: $-\frac{6}{4}\div\frac{2}{2}=-\frac{3}{2}$

Your answer is $-\frac{3}{2}$
